Prepare yourself for sixteen nights of luxurious travel through the sea when you set sail with the Sapphire Princess from Tokyo to Suez Canal.
This cruise is particularly exciting because you'll only tour through very uncommon ports like Yatsushiro, Seogwipo City, and Toba. This route is a rare one for the Sapphire. In fact, it sails it only once.
Coming in at less than $160 per day, this bargain is. We include all meals, entertainment, taxes, and fees in the price, so that you can compare cruises easily.
More than 2,600 people can comfortably travel on this highly-rated Grand class ship, based in Tokyo and refurbished just one year ago in 2025.
The Sapphire Princess offers guests a casino, a spa, and a gym.
This cruise spends eleven days in port and four days at sea. Major features include a long stop in Osaka plus visits to once-in-a-lifetime ports like Yatsushiro, Seogwipo City, and Toba.
