11 Night Circle Japan Cruise aboard the Sapphire Princess

Share

Reserve your suite on the Sapphire Princess and prepare for eleven nights of leisurely cruising across the sea from Tokyo and back!

This cruise is notable because you'll only experience once-in-a-lifetime cities such as Sakata, Kanazawa, and Aomori. This route is an uncommon one for the Sapphire. As a matter of fact, it sails it only once.

The price is the total you pay for a suite, no sneaky extra fees. This price just dropped, so book immediately to secure your suite before the price moves upwards again!

Based in Tokyo and refurbished only one year ago in 2025, over 2,600 travelers can sail on this top-rated Grand class cruise ship.
