THE JOURNEY
Day by day
Board the selected sailing
Transfer to the assigned terminal in Chennai, complete operator check-in and settle into the cabin. Explore onboard facilities after the safety briefing.
Explore Hambantota
If the chosen sailing calls at Hambantota, use the available shore time for coastal scenery and a gentle land excursion. Return to the ship by the operator's stated boarding time.
A day at sea
Use a sea day on a suitable itinerary for onboard activities, dining and rest. The actual sequence of sea days depends on the confirmed sailing.
Explore Trincomalee
If included in the selected voyage, plan bays, temples and coastal culture in Trincomalee. Choose an excursion that fits the ship's port window and local conditions.
Explore Colombo
If the matching itinerary includes Colombo, enjoy the historic city and markets. Check visa, landing and excursion requirements before finalizing this port visit.
Disembark in Chennai
Follow the operator's disembarkation instructions in Chennai, collect luggage and transfer to your onward stay or departure point.
Stay longer in Chennai
Add a land-based day in Chennai for an unhurried local visit before onward travel. The final hotel and transfer arrangements are confirmed separately.
