When you think of cruising, you may think of Caribbean islands, palm trees, and white sand beaches - and you can definitely find that on many wonderful cruises, if it's what you're looking for. But, what if you're looking for something unique? Something exotic? Something outside the box of a typical vacation? Cruising can take you there, too! Here are some unique destinations you can visit on a cruise.
Japan
Experience the contrast of this unique island nation, from tranquil temples and traditional districts to modern skyscrapers. Experience some of Japan's most well-known cities as well as lesser-known coastal towns, and choose from itineraries that focus on many of Japan's yearly festivals. Plus, many itineraries are available that combine Japan with stops in other parts of Asia such as South Korea, China, and Vietnam.
