10 best Asia cruises for a bucket-list trip
![cruises from singapore to asia Buddhist monks walking inside Angkor Wat temple](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/Three-buddhist-monks-with-umbrellas-walking-inside-Angkor-Wat-temple.-Siem-Reap-Cambodia_Matteo-Colombo.jpg?width=3840)
It would be easy to argue that a cruise is the best way to see Asia, especially for first-time visitors to the region. Many cruise lines build robust itineraries designed to visit as many bucket-list destinations as possible across numerous countries. From the bustling streets of Tokyo and the tranquil waters of Vietnam's Ha Long Bay to the ancient temples in Cambodia and street food vendors of Singapore, cruising allows travelers to uncover the richness of Asia with ease and comfort.
Other cruise lines specialize in one specific area, such as the Yangtze or Mekong rivers or the highlights of Japan. These narrow-focus cruises provide a culturally enriching look at centuries-old traditions or access to hidden gems that traditional tourists might overlook.

Cruise lines with ships large and small operate throughout Asia and vary in their levels of luxury, offshore offerings and onboard amenities. Many travelers to Asia are looking for two-week or longer cruises to help make the most of a long trek across the Pacific; however, both shorter and longer itineraries abound to ensure there's an Asia cruise for every vacation length and budget.
Here are 10 of the best Asia cruises to consider.
Crystal's 16-night Singapore to Hong Kong cruise
![cruises from singapore to asia](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/child-looking-at-city-skyline-of-financial-district-at-Marina-Bay-Singapore_d3sign.jpg?width=3840)
Over a little more than a two-week span in January 2025, passengers on Crystal's Singapore-to-Hong Kong itinerary will stop at some of the most popular ports in Asia. You'll first spend a few days in Thailand, where you can attend a meditation in Koh Samui or visit an elephant sanctuary where you'll feed the herd sugar cane and bananas before giving them a mud bath.
In Vietnam, you can ride on the back of a Vespa through the busy streets and markets of Hanoi, take a cooking class with a Vietnamese chef or kayak the crystal clear waters of Ha Long Bay. At the end of your cruise, enjoy a reflexology foot massage in Hong Kong after a traditional lunch in town. Rest up between days of sightseeing and activity with five days at sea.
Crystal truly excels at immersing passengers in cultural experiences with locals. Its carefully curated excursions take you to small villages where the locals are excited to shake your hand or invite you to help them prepare a regional dish using their traditional cooking methods.
Who should go: Luxury-focused travelers who appreciate fine dining, 24/7 butler service, attentive crew, spacious guest rooms and carefully curated excursions will find their home away from home aboard Crystal Symphony. With just 606 passengers on board, this ship is small enough to be intimate and easy to navigate, yet large enough to house all the desired amenities (including a pool, spa, walking track, fitness center, golf driving nets, putting green and tennis and pickleball courts).
MSC Cruises' 5-night round-trip cruise from Okinawa
![cruises from singapore to asia](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/Aerial-view-of-tropical-coastline-with-clear-blue-water-Okinawa-Japan_-Ippei-Naoi.jpg?width=3840)
MSC Cruises ' short five-night Asia cruise to Japan and Taiwan is a great way to add a cruise to your vacation in Japan. Depart from Okinawa for Ishigaki, known for Iriomote-Ishigaki National Park and the black pearl cultivation on Kabira Bay. The next stop, an overnight in Taipei, brings opportunities to see Taipei 101 Tower (once the world's tallest building, but now in fifth place) and ancient artifacts in the National Palace Museum.
Your final stop is Miyako Island, a picturesque spot covered by sugar cane fields. With no sea days, this itinerary is short and sweet. However, it doesn't skimp on ports of call.
Who should go: This five-night cruise in January 2025 on the 5,655-passenger MSC Bellissima is geared toward budget-conscious working adults looking for a shorter trip to Asia or folks who want to add a cruise to a longer land-based tour. For a VIP experience, upgrade to the MSC Yacht Club 's private sanctuary, which offers 24/7 butler service, exclusive venues (like a fine dining restaurant and a private sun deck), and even a personalized minibar and pillow menu.
Viking's 14-night Classic China and the Coast cruise
![cruises from singapore to asia](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/Great-Wall-of-China_Fei-Yang.jpg?width=3840)
For many, walking along the Great Wall is a dream. For passengers aboard Viking Yi Dun on the Classic China and the Coast cruise, it's a reality. Viking sets itself apart with a China-focused cruisetour that combines a five-night precruise land stay in Beijing and Xian with a nine-night cruise through the East and South China Seas. You can choose from multiple fall 2024 departures.
In Beijing, you can visit the Forbidden City and Great Wall before flying to Xian to admire the famous Terra Cotta Warriors archeological site. You can also take in Shanghai's impressive skyline and Garden City before sailing along China's coast. Notable stops include Zhoushan, where you can observe Buddhist culture, and Xiamen for a traditional tea ceremony.
Who should go: Viking appeals to cruisers who prefer a more inclusive pricing model. The line's fares include one complimentary shore excursion in every port of call; free Wi-Fi; beer and wine served with lunch and dinner; port fees and taxes; and 24/7 specialty coffees, teas and bottled water. The all-veranda ship, 930-passenger Viking Yi Dun is small enough to dock in places the larger ships cannot, offering a more up-close and personal experience without the crowds.
Royal Caribbean's 7-night Kobe, Osaka and Tokyo cruise
![cruises from singapore to asia](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/A-Japanese-woman-in-kimono-is-slowing-walking-on-the-corridor-of-Hojo-at-Tofuku-ji-Temple-in-Kyoto-Japan_magicflute002.jpg?width=3840)
Royal Caribbean's Kobe, Osaka and Tokyo itinerary offers the best of Japan in a short span of time. The weeklong sailing in November 2025 begins and ends in Shanghai (the port is Baoshan), with two sea days and stops in the Japanese cities of Kobe, Kyoto (Osaka) and Tokyo.
In Kobe, visit the waterfalls of Mount Rokko, take a dip in a hot spring bath (called an onsen) and dine on the region's famous wagyu beef. Kyoto is known for its multicourse cuisine, shopping, a famous Zen garden, hidden temples and its Geisha district. No visit to Japan would be complete without a port call in Tokyo, where soaring skyscrapers and traditional shrines coexist harmoniously.
Who should go: Travelers with children, multigenerational families and anyone looking for a great deal on an Asian cruise should consider Royal Caribbean 's offerings. The 4,246-passenger Spectrum of the Seas has high-quality and tech-infused entertainment, myriad bars and dining options (including Sichuan Red, a specialty dining experience filled with Asian-inspired flavors), skydiving and surf simulators, a casino, a teen disco, multiple pools and a splash pad. Expect an international crowd on board, with guests from around the world.
Seabourn's 14-night Taiwan, South Korea and Japan's Spring Flowers cruise
Looking for a cruise that covers a lot of ground during a special time of year? Seabourn's Taiwan, South Korea and Japan's Spring Flowers itinerary begins in Hong Kong. It maximizes your time at sea, with 11 port stops in four countries over 14 days — and it all happens during cherry blossom season in March 2025. Expect views of Mount Fuji, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, tours of castles and temples, and delicious street food throughout your journey.
Highlights in Taiwan include visiting a Ming Dynasty temple on Penghu Island and seeing Taipei 101, the world's second-tallest skyscraper. During the Japanese ports, you can plan a visit to the Shureimon gate — a UNESCO Heritage Site in Okinawa's capital — or take a guided hike through Gangala Valley to see the ancient banyan trees. Finally, in South Korea, stop by the Dongmun traditional market and the Tongdosa Temple, which functions as a museum full of centuries-old relics.
Who should go: Retirees who love spoiling themselves with luxurious amenities will enjoy this two-week getaway. The 458-passenger Seabourn Quest has 229 suites, each with a spacious bathroom featuring a separate tub and shower. Guests can stay busy during sea days with the card room, plunge pool, whirlpool spas and fitness center. Seabourn 's all-inclusive model also covers gratuities as well as complimentary wines and spirits.
Princess Cruises' 13-night Circle Japan Fall Foliage cruise
![cruises from singapore to asia](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/Chureito-Pagoda-and-Mt.Fuji-at-sunset-with-fall-foliage_Witthaya-Prasongsin.jpg?width=3840)
A line long devoted to offering Japan cruises, Princess Cruises truly delivers with this 13-day Circle Japan Fall Foliage itinerary in November 2025. Aside from one port stop in Busan, South Korea, the entire journey is focused on Japan. The sailing begins and ends in Tokyo, with 10 port stops in Hakodate, Niigata, Kanazawa, Sakaiminato, Nagasaki, Kagoshima, Kochi, Kobe, Wakayama and Omaezaki.
Points of interest for excursion-planning purposes include Mount Fuji in Tokyo, the enchanting Kenroku-en Garden in Kanazawa, Peace Memorial Park and Atomic Bomb Museum in Nagasaki, and the 1,200-year-old Koyasaan monastery complex — a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Wakayama. Check out the Morning Market (where chefs purchase fresh fish to make sushi) in Hakodate and learn about rice's importance to sake production at a brewery in Niigata.
Who should go: Princess tends to attract retirees with its classic cruise style. The 2,710-passenger Diamond Princess has something for every guest, including Broadway-style shows after dinner and a number of restaurants. (Don't miss sashimi at Kai Sushi.) The Izumi Japanese Bath, the largest of its kind at sea, gives guests a traditional onsen experience, complete with hot tubs, steam rooms and saunas against a backdrop of the sea.
Victoria Cruise Line's 3-night Three Gorges Highlights cruise
![cruises from singapore to asia](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/Sailing-on-the-Yangtze-River-in-China_manx_in_the_world.jpg?width=3840)
For those yearning to see the Yangtze — Asia's longest river and the third-longest in the world — Victoria Cruise Lines is a safe bet. It's the only American-managed cruise line on this river and has been in business for 30 years.
The Three Gorges Highlights sailing from Chongqing to Yichang departs daily from March through November each year and showcases daily life on the Yangtze as well as the area's extraordinary Three Gorges Dam project (China's new engineering marvel). You'll be awed by forest-covered mountains, sky-high cliffs and the world's largest ship lock with a ship lift. Shore excursions receive rave reviews from passengers, and the ships only hold about 200 passengers.
Who should go: Travelers looking for an exceptional add-on experience to their trip to China should consider this three-night sailing (a standard length for this experience, unlike the longer river cruises found in Europe). Victoria recommends booking through a travel agent who can reserve your cruise as part of a package tour offered by local tour operators. Expect lectures about the area's history and sights, cuisine focused on Chinese and Western flavors, onboard Tai Chi lessons and calligraphy demonstrations, and a cabin to fit every desired level of luxury.
Azamara's 20-night Treasure of Asia cruise
![cruises from singapore to asia](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/06/Wat-Arun-Buddhist-temple-and-Chao-Phraya-river-on-a-sunny-day-Bangkok-Thailand_-Alexander-Spatari.jpg?width=3840)
You can see a lot of Asia in 20 days, especially if you're doing the Treasure of Asia Voyage with Azamara in March 2025. Beginning in Singapore, the ship will wind its way through Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand — that's eight countries checked off your bucket list in one trip.
Tour Manila on a bamboo bike, explore the silk factories of Hoi An, zoom through the canals of the Mekong delta on a speedboat outside Ho Chi Minh City and visit the Grand Palace in Bangkok by tuk-tuk.
Who should go: Cruisers who prefer a smaller ship (684 passengers) that still offers plenty of variety — such as seven restaurants and lounges, a swimming pool and a spa — will find Azamara Onward to be just right for their vacation. Azamara includes a couple of helpful extras in its fare: prepaid gratuities and free self-service laundry in addition to select standard spirits, international beers, and a changing selection of red and white wines by the glass.
Uniworld's 15-day Timeless Wonders of Vietnam, Cambodia and The Mekong cruise
![cruises from singapore to asia](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/Exterior-view-of-Angkor-Wat-in-Cambodia_Ashit-Desai.jpg?width=3840)
Travelers with their hearts set on exploring the mighty Mekong River — the 12th longest in the world, which runs through Southwest China, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Southern Vietnam — should put Uniworld Boutique River Cruises at the top of their list. The line offers Mekong River sailings throughout 2024 and 2025, which it packages together with pre- and postcruise land-based stays in Ho Chi Minh City, Siem Reap and Hanoi.
The Timeless Wonders of Vietnam, Cambodia and The Mekong itinerary starts with a two-night stay in Ho Chi Minh City ahead of embarking on the 68-passenger Mekong Jewel. During the seven-night Mekong River cruise, guests will be able to witness the daily routines of villagers, visit local temples and discover how Khmer scarves are made. The cruise is followed by three nights in Siem Reap, allowing guests to visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Angkor Wat. The adventure ends with a three-night stay in Hanoi, where passengers can tour the bustling streets and vibrant markets of Vietnam's capital.
Who should go: Uniworld thoughtfully packages its river cruises with a land-based tour for travelers who want a seamless and all-inclusive experience. This cruise includes meals, complimentary drinks, 13 excursions, and accommodations on the ship and in city hotels. It also includes ground transfers and gratuities.
Celebrity's 12-night Bali, Malaysia & Thailand Holiday cruise
![cruises from singapore to asia](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/The-Candi-Bentar-split-gate-is-Hindu-Temple-in-Bali_Ali-Trisno-Pranoto.jpg?width=3840)
Consider this Bali, Malaysia & Thailand Holiday sailing with Celebrity Cruises to be your ticket to an "Eat, Pray, Love" moment in your life. Embarkation takes place in Bali, but you'll visit additional ports in Indonesia for a taste of all this country has to offer.
From the breathtaking Tiu Kelep waterfalls and towering volcanoes to the many wild tropical bird specials and reef fish in West Bali National Park, you'll discover so much about this region and perhaps a bit about yourself, too. Next up are stops in Malaysia, including an overnight stay in Penang (known for its beaches, Buddhist temples and exquisite butterfly farm). The 12-night trip wraps up with an overnight in Phuket, Thailand, allowing enough time to explore the tropical forests, palm-lined coves and vibrant nightlife before ending in Singapore.
Who should go: Celebrity is an excellent choice for cruisers who want a slightly elevated experience without dipping too much further into their wallets. This December 2025 sailing on the 2,218-passenger Celebrity Millennium is likely to attract anyone who wants to spend their winter holidays in a tropical locale beyond the more typical Caribbean adventures. This ship was revamped in 2019, so take advantage of the adults-only solarium, reimagined restaurants and lounges and the redesigned spa (not to mention Starlink for high-speed connectivity).

Top tip for your cruise to Asia
Prepare for the contrast in temperatures. Although cruising across Asia throughout most of the year you will find outdoor temperatures to often top 30 °C, air conditioning inside is cold. Bring a layer or two to wear when visiting inside shopping malls, restaurants and tourist attractions.
Top Asian cruise harbours
When you arrive at Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong, you will get a preview of what this amazing city has to offer. Colourful, full of life and with breath-taking scenery from the moment you arrive, the harbour acts as a gateway, inspiring you to explore the city further.
See Hong Kong from its highest and most picturesque vantage point at Victoria Peak. Take the tram up the steep 1,300 feet climb and save your energy for the Peak Circle Walk at the top, allowing you to appreciate Hong Kong from every angle.
A visit to the Tian Tan Buddha, or ‘Big Buddha’ is another rise above the city that provides spectacular views from the glass-bottomed cable car ride up and as Hong Kong’s most iconic attraction, it is one not to miss. --> Hong Kong cruises
Did you know…?
Hong Kong has more skyscrapers than New York City. In fact, it has more than anywhere else in the world, at 353 of these towering buildings with more than 40 floors.
The Port of Tokyo (Yokohama) provides the welcome to a capital city dazzling with the neon lights of modern, chic shopping, bustling street food traders and ultra, high-tech attractions. This is the city that never sleeps in the East.
Dine at the astonishing, 10-billion-yen worth, Robot Restaurant. This unique and crazy experience is robot entertainment on a new technological level.
For those seeking a quieter pace of life, Tokyo is steeped in history and its thousands of Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples offer more contemplative, tranquil, yet equally spectacular places to explore.
If time allows, step outside the city boundaries and soak up the overwhelming beauty of the Japanese natural landscape. Standing at 3,776 metres, as Japan’s highest mountain, Mount Fuji and its surrounding Fuji Fives Lakes are simply stunning.
The Tokyo Tower, built on the model of the Eiffel Tower, stands 13 metres taller than its inspiration, but is only half the weight, due to advances in steel technology. --> Tokyo cruises
If you are searching for a clean, cutting-edge city that is continually reinventing and pushing the boundaries to amaze its visitors, then Singapore is your destination. Culture meets technology and action meets creativity, delivering new experiences every day.
Its modern, well-equipped infrastructure allows easy travel around the city; perfect if you are short on time.
Visit Gardens by The Bay, where futuristic design is used at its most effective to create 101 hectares of horticultural delight. Waterfall cascades, giant cacti and 18 Supertrees create an extensive garden that can only be likened to a movie set.
Marina Bay Sands Hotel has gained worldwide notoriety. Walk along the waterfront here to appreciate the elegant city skyline any time of day. --> Singapur cruises
A trip to Singapore’s Night Safari is a unique and eerie opportunity to come face to face with 120 species of nocturnal wildlife and fragrant jungle foliage.
When is the best time to go on an Asia cruise?
Climate and weather patterns can vary quite significantly, even within the same country in Asia, so it is useful to know what to expect, so you can plan accordingly.
Brief guide of the three main ports in our Asia cruise.
Best time to visit hong kong.
As a subtropical location, the best time to visit Hong Kong is either in the Spring (March -April) or Autumn (October – November). Temperatures are moderate, usually around the mid-20°C, sunshine is common and evenings are cool. July and August can get hot and humid and there is the potential for typhoons, however this does encourage great travel and shopping discounts.
Best time to visit Tokyo
The weather is Tokyo mirrors the UK to a large extend, making Spring (March-May) and autumn (September to November) comfortable times to be out and about, exploring. Travelling in May is beautiful, as the parks and gardens are all in bloom.
Best time to visit Singapore
Being closer to the equator, the temperatures in Singapore remain quite consistent; between 30-33°C. The rainy season is between November and December. However, from June to August, it can get humid, so there is the potential for flash thunderstorms. At any time of year, it’s best to get up early and enjoy the cooler temperatures for sightseeing and also to avoid the crowds.
During peak tourist season, top attractions in the cities can get busy. Book in advance or go early to ensure that you can maximise your time in each location.
Top sights in Asia
Asia’s variety of incredible landscapes, fascinating cultures and ancient historical sites is so extensive that the possibilities for adventure are endless. We’ve picked out our three favourite sights, within close vicinity to our top three harbours.
High Island Reservoir East Dam
The spectacular sight of the largest reservoir in Hong Kong makes High Island Reservoir East Dam well worth a visit. It is situated at the most accessible part of the Hong Kong Global Geopark and features hexagonal volcanic rock columns, formed over 140 million years ago, alongside thousands of dolosse blocks (huge cement barriers shaped like jacks) placed along the coast to break the sea waves; a truly surreal and unique sight.
Sensoji, Asakusa
Sensoji, Asakusa is Tokyo’s oldest Buddhist temple, built in 628. It’s colourful, five-storied pagoda and 200m long, historic shopping street, selling souvenirs and traditional Japanese snacks, attracts many tourists and is host to several large-scale festivals throughout the year.
Raffles Hotel
Enjoy a Singapore Sling in the place where it was created: Raffle Bar in the Raffles Hotel. This hotel has become iconic in Singapore with its colonial history dating back to 1887. Its list of celebrity guests includes Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Jackson and even Queen Elizabeth II. Aside from its magnificent 103 suites and 18 restaurants, it has an arcade of over 40 designer boutiques and stores; heaven for the shopaholic.
For every 10 people alive in the world, 6 of them live in Asia!
Regional Asian dishes
If you love exciting, varied cuisine, bursting with flavour, then Asia will not disappoint. Although Asian food has become increasingly popular in the U.K., tasting the dishes prepared at their origin takes the experience to a whole new level.
Try the unique flavour of Ramen, a Japanese wheat noodle bowl in a Miso broth. Often garnished with egg, pork, seaweed or onion, the dish is strong in flavour, healthy and filling.
Travel to Hong Kong and you must try Dim Sum. Translated as ‘touch the heart’, Dim Sum is not a singular dish, but more a style of food, being a variety of bite-sized dishes. Think Asian style tapas. Hong Kong is famous for its variety of Dim Sum, so here is the place to sample the best.
For a traditional taste of Singaporean cuisine, Bak Kut The, or Pork Ribs Soup, is the dish to order. Simple and humble, this dish consists of a pork broth, spiced with mild herbs, such as star anise and is often thought to be a tonic to reenergise workers.
Fascinating Facts about Asia
Despite Hong Kong’s reputation for high rise skyscrapers, hiking is one of the nation’s favourite pastimes with 40% of its territory is made of country parks and nature reserves.
Hong Kong has the world’s longest covered escalator. Running for 800m, lined with shops and restaurants, the Central–Mid-Levels Escalator was featured as one of the ‘coolest commutes’ by CNN in 2015.
Japan has the greatest density of vending machines in the world, with one on nearly every street corner. These are reported to total around 5.5 million vending machines across the country, which sell everything form hot coffee to umbrellas and fresh eggs!
Cherry blossoms (sakura) are Japan's national flower. Their colourful bloom can be enjoyed at varying times of the year from January to late May, depending where you are in the country.
Singapore is one of only three city states in the world; the others being Monaco and the Vatican City. This is where a singular city and its dependent territories is politically independent and makes up an entire nation.
If you come across a $1,000 note in Singapore, have a look more closely. On the back you will find the full national anthem, written in microtext.
Top Travelling Tip for cruises to Asia
Research local laws and customs when visiting each country in Asia. For example, there are certain places where photography is not welcome, dress should be more conservative or specific gestures may cause offence.

Billionaire jean salata’s eqt asia to buy singapore’s propertyguru for $1 billion.
- Share to Facebook
- Share to Twitter
- Share to Linkedin
The PropertyGuru app offers property listings across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam.
EQT Private Capital Asia —an Asian buyout fund backed by Hong Kong-based billionaire Jean Salata —has agreed to acquire PropertyGuru, a Singapore-based online real estate platform, in an all-cash transaction valued at $1.1 billion.
Under the deal, PropertyGuru shareholders will receive $6.70 per share, representing a 52% premium over PropertyGuru's closing price on May 21, the last trading day unaffected by news reports of a potential transaction, EQT said in a statement released on Friday,
“We believe our offer provides shareholders with compelling value and certainty, while strategically positioning PropertyGuru to fully harness its long-term growth potential,” Janice Leow, a partner in the EQT Private Capital Asia advisory team and head of EQT Private Capital Southeast Asia said in the statement.
Pending shareholder and regulatory approvals, the deal is expected to close by the first quarter of next year. U.S. private equity firms KKR and TPG, which collectively hold a 56% stake in PropertyGuru, have endorsed the transaction.
Once the transaction is completed, PropertyGuru will delist from the New York Stock Exchange and transition to a privately held company, whose headquarters will continue to be based in Singapore.
The deal comes as EQT plans to raise $12.5 billion for a new Asia-focused fund that will be managed by EQT Private Capital Asia.
“EQT’s global expertise in building marketplaces and commitment to sustainable growth will further strengthen our vision to power communities to live, work, and thrive in tomorrow's cities," Hari V. Krishnan, CEO and managing director of PropertyGuru , said in the statement.
REA Group—an Australian real estate company controlled by billionaire Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp.—owns over 17% in PropertyGuru. The company expects to receive approximately A$286 million ($189.6 million) from the sale of this stake, according to a separate statement to the Australia Stock Exchange.
PropertyGuru was launched 17 years ago and now has over 28 million monthly active users with more than 46,000 agents and 2.1 million property listings across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam.
Salata—a Chilean citizen who has lived and worked in Hong Kong since 1989—has a net worth of $6.5 billion and was ranked No. 12 on the list of Hong Kong’s 50 Richest that was published in February. In 2000, he led a management buyout of Baring Private Equity Asia, which was acquired two years later by Swedish private equity firm EQT in a cash and share deal valued at $7.5 billion. Salata now heads the combined Asian operations of Baring and EQT, which have been rebranded as EQT Private Capital Asia.

I bought a one-way ticket to Singapore and tried to put roots down. Now, I'm saying goodbye to years of being an expat and going home to be an English girl in England.
- Candice Gallagher is a content creator who's lived in many countries from Switzerland to the US.
- She loved living as an expat and bought a one-way ticket to Singapore in 2019.
- But dating hurdles and missing family and friends pushed her to move back home.
![cruises from singapore to asia Insider Today](https://www.businessinsider.com/public/assets/BI/US/logos/newsletters/insider-today-logo.png)
This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Candice Gallagher, a 38-year-old British marketer and content creator . It has been edited for length and clarity.
I grew up in Asia. My family moved to Singapore when I was 8. We lived there for two years before living in Hong Kong for six years.
As an adult, I wanted to go back and reexperience that life. In January 2019, with no job but absolute clarity, I booked a one-way ticket to Singapore.
Asia was where I was meant to be
When I first came back to Singapore as an adult in 2019, I worked at a now-defunct company called Zilingo. I went home to the UK briefly during the COVID lockdown in 2020, but it became clear to me that I had to head back to Singapore.
I secured a job at a fintech company called CardUp and was back in Singapore in September 2021.
Living in Singapore was comfortable. The weather is good, and there are lots of opportunities to travel. It's multicultural, and there's a lot of great food.
But Singapore is an expensive city. I spent about $7,000 a month: $4,000 on rent and about $3,000 on bills from restaurants, bars, supermarkets, traveling, and other expenses.
Dating as an expat was not a breeze
Dating anywhere in the world is difficult, and I've done it pretty seriously in four countries: England, the US, Singapore, and Switzerland, where I did my master's degree.
But in Singapore, I found there was a very small pool of people who fit into the same cultural space I operated in. It was like I was trying to go fishing in a very small pond.
Then I saw a video on TikTok of a group in the US who'd set up a dating event. I posted a video in Singapore and said, "Hey Singaporeans, is anyone with me? Would you like to come to an event like this?"
Related stories
Then, the whole thing snowballed, and I ended up hosting a dating event called " Singlepore ."
It was pretty amazing. It reflects a desire for offline, real-world ways to connect with people.
Deciding to move back to the UK
I spend a lot of time thinking about life versus lifestyle. In Singapore, I was living a lifestyle that I very much enjoyed.
But I was starting to feel unfulfilled in my life. I'd been overseas for more than 18 years. I wanted to be around my friends from high school and college, so I decided to move home.
So, in July, I packed my bags and moved back to the UK.
It took me a long time to reach that conclusion because I moved abroad when I was 8. The idea of "just being an English girl in England" kicked off a bit of an identity crisis. I was like: "Who am I if I'm not an expat?"
But I think that thought process underestimates how exciting and diverse England can be.
I now feel a sense of discovery about what living in England will be like. I don't know how it'll go — but I'm going to give it a try.

Asia's summers tend to be hot and humid – great weather for lounging on a tropical beach, but if you're looking for cooler temps, visit at the end of spring or the start of autumn.
English is spoken and taught in many Asian countries as a second language, but it's always handy to know a few words in the local language to help you navigate the place and culture.
Stop for food at the spots you see crowded with locals: you might have to queue a little, but the busy spots are sure to serve up the best, most authentic dishes.

Olympics Closing Ceremony: All the Highlights as Paris Hands Over Games to L.A., From Phoenix Rocking Out to Tom Cruise’s Epic Stunts
![cruises from singapore to asia PARIS, FRANCE - AUGUST 11: Actor Tom Cruise holds the Olympic flag during the Closing Ceremony of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 at Stade de France on August 11, 2024 in Paris, France. (Photo by Fabrizio Bensch- Pool/Getty Images)](https://variety.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/GettyImages-2165894146.jpg?w=1000&h=667&crop=1)
The Paris Olympics set a high bar for itself after an opening ceremony that showcased Lady Gaga, Celine Dion and a scenic backdrop involving virtually every Parisian landmark along the Seine. But the closing ceremony — taking place on a blistering hot day in stark contrast to the pouring rain of its kickoff — also delivered a blockbuster show with a Hollywood twist.

Unfolding days after a thwarted terrorist attack that targeted a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna, the Paris Olympics closing ceremony took place under a beefed up security protocol involving thousands of police forces, including nearly 2,000 agents coming from overseas. Over 70,000 spectators attended in addition to 8,200 athletes from over 200 delegations and 270 artists. In an interview with Variety , Reboul said he and the rest of the organizers spent an “incalculable” amount of time to prepare an airtight security plan with local authorities. The country has already been on high alert since the start of the war in Gaza last October.
Below, see all the best moments from the Paris Olympics closing ceremony.
Zaho de Sagazan Kicks Things Off From the Jardin des Tuileries
French singer-songwriter Zaho de Sagazan, who sang “Modern Love” to Greta Gerwig at the Cannes Film Festival, kicked off the closing ceremony with a performance of French music legend Édith Piaf’s “Sous le Ciel de Paris” at the lush Jardin des Tuileries, where the Olympic Cauldron — an air balloon lit by the Olympic Flame — is located. She was accompanied by the choir of the Académie Haendel-Hendrix.
French Breakout Star Léon Marchand Carries the Olympic Lantern
Dressed elegantly in a suit, French swimmer and Olympic breakout star Léon Marchand — who won four gold medals and one silver at the Games — then removed the lantern containing the flame from the cauldron and began carrying it to the Stade de France. Nicknamed “the dolphin” by his French supporters, Marchand was welcomed with “Léon, Léon” chants. He moved to Arizona three years ago to train with Bob Bowman, the coach of 23-time Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps.
Athletes Band Together — and Sing Karaoke?
After parading in boats under pouring rain during the opening ceremony, the athletes — who all stuck around the City of Light for the closing bash — entered the futuristic stage together and moved to the beat of French electro tracks, including by Justice and M83.
After all the teams had entered, it was announced that it was time for “athlete karaoke,” where all competitors were expected to sing along to various songs. First up were some French anthems, including “Emmenez-moi” by Charles Aznavour, “Les Champs-Elysées” by Joe Dassin and “Freed From Desire” by Gala. Naturally, “We Are the Champions” by Queen was also part of the playlist, and resulted in the biggest sing-along of the night.
Tom Cruise Has Arrived
The actor waved to fans as he arrived to the VIP section of the closing ceremony ahead of his stunt performance to hand over the Games to 2028 host Los Angeles.
A Golden Voyager Descends on the Games
Dressed in a glittering costume, the voyager rappelled down from the top of the stadium and performed an acrobatic piece as two more mysterious figures attached the flag of Greece to a pole and waved it in the air. Nike, the Greek Goddess of Victory who appears on every Olympic medal, was also portrayed as a swarm of acrobats descended upon the stadium from the sky and erected the five Olympic rings. A piano then emerged from underneath the set, dangling vertically as Alain Roche played the instrument suspended in midair while French lyric tenor Benjamin Bernheim sang “Hymn to Apollo.” As the acrobats danced and flipped, the rings were raised into the air to symbolize the rebirth of the Games.
Francophone Musicians Take Over
After the dancers had been cleared off the futuristic stage, French indie band Phoenix delivered a rousing rendition of their hit “Lisztomania” surrounded by athletes. DJ Kavinsky and Belgian singer Angèle then joined the band to play “Nightcall,” the breakout song from Nicolas Winding Refn’s “Drive,” before launching into “If I Ever Feel Better” featuring a verse from Cambodian rapper VannDa. Fellow French rockers Air then showed up to play “Playground Love,” the band’s collaboration with Phoenix frontman Thomas Mars that was featured in “The Virgin Suicides,” directed by Mars’ wife Sofia Coppola. The surprise guests continued with Vampire Weekend frontman Ezra Koenig hopping on stage to sing “Tonight,” his duet with the band. Phoenix closed out its set with “1901,” which saw Mars jump into the crowd of moshing Olympians.
Paris Sets a Record in Olympic Marriage Proposals
Tony Estanguet, the dashing gold medal-winning French slalom canoeist who presided over of the Paris 2024 Organizing Committee for the Olympics, delivered a moving speech highlighting the records broken during the event, which not only included the 64 medals won by the French team, but also the number of wedding proposals that happened through the last 11 days. Hosted in the city of Love, the Paris Olympics saw seven wedding proposals, two of which happened in Marseille during the sailing competitions.
“To you, athletes, what can I say? We knew you would be brilliant, but you were magic,” Estanguet said. “You made us happy, you made us feel alive,” he continued, drawing a parallel with the exhilarating feelings triggered by a coup de foudre.
L.A. Mayor Karen Bass Is Handed the Olympic Flag
H.E.R. Performs the U.S. National Anthem
Is there anything Grammy-award winning superstar H.E.R. can’t do? As the American flag was raised into the sky to symbolize L.A. taking on the 2028 Summer Games, award-winning musician H.E.R. sang the U.S. National Anthem with gusto.
H.E.R. was dressed in an all-white look and also had a matching custom Fender Stratocaster. After belting out the final notes of the “Star Spangled Banner,” she paused and began strumming the “Mission: Impossible” theme song as Tom Cruise descended from the roof of the stadium.
Tom Cruise Delivers “Mission: Impossible”-Worthy Stunts
Tom Cruise jumped off the top of the Stade de France to mark the handover from the Paris Olympics to the L.A. Games in 2028, and landed on the stage of the stadium.
He was welcomed like a rockstar at the Stade de France and joined Team USA champion Biles along with L.A. mayor Bass, who handed the Olympic flag to him. He then hopped on to a motorcycle with the flag in tow and rode out of the stadium to make the symbolic delivery to L.A. In a pre-recorded segment, Cruise dove out of a plane over the Hollywood sign and positioned the Olympic rings over it before the artist performances in L.A. began.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Billie Eilish and Snoop Dogg Welcome Games to L.A.
L.A. natives the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Billie Eilish and Snoop Dogg represented the City of Angels after the handoff of the Olympic flag was made. On a beachside stage, the Red Hot Chili Peppers played “Can’t Stop” before Eilish sang her most recent hit “Birds of a Feather.” Snoop Dogg, who has been contributing commentary to this year’s Games on NBC, brought his Long Beach style to the screen as he rapped “Drop It Like It’s Hot” and even brought out Dr. Dre for their anthem “The Next Episode.”
Yseult and Paris Say “Au Revoir” With “My Way”
The broadcast shifted back to the Stade de France for the closing ceremony’s final segment: an enchanting version of “My Way” belted by French singer Yseult. As the final notes rang out, an impressive amount of fireworks exploded over the stadium — ensuring that the Paris Olympics went out with a bang.
