Andaman Passage: Singapore to the Malay Coast

The main island of Singapore is shaped like a flattened diamond, 42 km (26 miles) east to west and 23 km (14 miles) north to south. Near the northern peak is the causeway leading to West Malaysia—Kuala Lumpur is less than four hours away by car. It is at the southern foot where you will find most of the city-state’s action, with its gleaming office towers, working docks, and futuristic "supertrees," which are solar-powered and serve as vertical gardens. Offshore are Sentosa and over 60 smaller islands, most uninhabited, that serve as bases for oil refining or as playgrounds and beach escapes from the city. To the east is Changi International Airport, connected to the city by metro, bus, and a tree-lined parkway. Of the island's total land area, more than half is built up, with the balance made up of parkland, farmland, plantations, swamp areas, and rain forest. Well-paved roads connect all parts of the island, and Singapore city has an excellent, and constantly expanding, public transportation system. The heart of Singapore's history and its modern wealth are in and around the Central Business District. The area includes the skyscrapers in the Central Business District, the 19th-century Raffles Hotel, the convention centers of Marina Square, on up to the top of Ft. Canning. Although most of old Singapore has been knocked down to make way for the modern city, most colonial landmarks have been preserved in the CBD, including early-19th-century buildings designed by the Irish architect George Coleman.

Welcome to Singapore, a vibrant city where modern innovation meets richly layered heritage. After embarking, settle into your spacious ultra-luxury suite on board Scenic Eclipse II, with your butler on hand to assist with unpacking and help you select the perfect pillow from the menu for a restful night. Take time to familiarise yourself with the yacht’s exceptional amenities, including the expansive Senses Spa# and state-of-the-art theatre. As evening falls, toast the beginning of your voyage with a cocktail on the Observation Terrace, watching the city lights shimmer across the water.  

Please book your flight to arrive into Singapore prior to 02:00 PM.

George Town is a city where history and culture meet in captivating ways. Colonial-era buildings stand alongside Chinese shophouses, mosques and Indian temples, creating a vivid blend of architecture, flavours and traditions. The aromas of street-side hawker stalls mingle with temple bells and soft chants, while colourful façades and ornate pagodas catch the light, turning every corner of this World Heritage-listed city into a new discovery.

Langkawi, the largest of Malaysia’s 99 islands, is a lush tropical sanctuary in the Andaman Sea, just south of Thailand. With its emerald hills, mangrove-fringed coastline, pristine beaches and vibrant local culture, the island offers a compelling blend of natural beauty and layered heritage.

Though few tourists linger here, Phuket Town, the provincial capital, is one of the more culturally interesting places on the island to spend half a day. About one-third of the island's population lives here, and the town is an intriguing mix of old Sino-Portuguese architecture and the influences of the Chinese, Muslims, and Thais that inhabit it. The old Chinese quarter along Talang Street is especially good for a stroll, as its history has not yet been replaced by modern concrete and tile. And this same area has a variety of antiques shops, art studios, and trendy cafés. Besides Talang, the major thoroughfares are Ratsada, Phuket, and Ranong roads. Ratsada connects Phuket Road (where you'll find the Tourism Authority of Thailand office) to Ranong Road, where there's an aromatic local market filled with fruits, vegetables, spices, and meats.

Often called the Pearl of Thailand, Phuket enchants with its sweep of pristine beaches and sparkling turquoise waters. In town, the towering 45-metre white marble Big Buddha watches over the island, while historic Wat Chalong and its grand pagoda hold deep spiritual significance, believed to enshrine a sacred relic of the Buddha.

In the evening, settle in at the spacious Scenic Lounge Bar to enjoy your beverage of choice, whether it be aged whiskey or a glass of wine. With Scenic’s signature all-inclusive ultra-luxury philosophy, indulge in top shelf spirits, over 130 whiskeys, a premium wine list and Champagne.

Pulau Pangkor, off Malaysia’s west coast, is a tranquil island where golden beaches and calm bays set the tone for laid-back days. Stroll through quaint fishing villages, soak in the unhurried atmosphere and visit the 17th-century Dutch fort, which stands as a quiet reminder of the island’s storied past.

Kuala Lumpur, or KL as locals refer to it, intrigues visitors with its diversity and multicultural character. The city's old quarter features stretches of shop houses that hint at its colonial past, while modern buildings—including the iconic Petronas Towers—give a glimpse of its modern financial ambitions. The city is filled with culturally colorful quarters dedicated to Chinese, Malay, and Indian communities. New shopping malls with designer labels, five-star hotels, and top-notch restaurants also proliferate in this bustling city of 1.6 million.

Step ashore at Port Klang, the gateway to Malaysia’s vibrant capital, Kuala Lumpur, where gleaming skyscrapers, grand colonial buildings and colourful neighbourhoods sit side by side. Explore lively markets, historic streets and cultural landmarks such as mosques and temples, then return to the unparalleled comfort of your ultra-luxury Scenic Discovery Yacht, where every moment is crafted for indulgence, relaxation and unforgettable memories.

The Vitality pool and Sky Bar on Deck 10 invite time in the open air, while the Senses Spa# provides a tranquil retreat with its saunas, therapeutic spaces and calming ambience. Throughout the day, the elegant bars, lounges and library offer a choice of atmospheres, from sociable to contemplative, as you ease deeper into the voyage.

Discover the heart and soul of Melaka, where the legacy of the Malay sultanate mingles with Portuguese, Dutch and British influences to create a uniquely layered character. Wander past the remnants of A Famosa Fort and along atmospheric streets before soaking up the vibrant energy of Jonker Street, with its colourful shops, lively markets and rich cultural tapestry.
