Pack your bags for the 2027 World Cruise, an enchanting voyage across the Pacific Ocean.

THE SANCTUARY OF TRUTH
DURATION: 5 HOURS
Our destination for this compelling experience is the largest wooden castle in the world, The Sanctuary of Truth. A hybrid of a castle and a temple, it’s a remarkable sight with its intricate carvings – a dazzling display of significant Eastern mythological deities and literary figures – which demonstrate the finest local craftsmanship. Inside, you’ll experience a deeply spiritual atmosphere at this very special event, which takes us right to the heart of Thai culture. While music plays and jasmine scents the air, you will be treated to a taster of the country’s traditions, from incredible dances and musical performances that bring to life the stories illustrated in the Sanctuary’s carvings to a delicious feast of authentic Thai cuisine. This will be a memorable trip where art, culture, and cuisine come together to magical effect.
SYDNEY’S SOUL: A NIGHT OF INDIGENOUS CULTURE
Join us for an enlightening evening at the prestigious Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA) Australia at Tallawoladah, an area overlooking Sydney Harbor that has been home to the stories and art of the Gadigal People for more than 65,000 years. Enjoy exclusive private access to the museum after hours, wandering at your leisure through its halls to admire the vast collection of works by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists – the only one of its kind in Australia. Upon reaching the rooftop Sculpture Terrace, you will be welcomed with drinks and canapés as you soak up sensational views of the harbor. The night continues with a superb three-course dinner in the elegant surroundings of the Foundation Hall before an exclusive performance by one of Australia’s premier jazz musicians.
THE RHYTHMS AND RITUALS OF ECUADOR
Embrace the joyful spirit of Ecuador at this lively celebration of the nation’s traditions through music and dance – and enjoy some delicious local flavors. Feel the energy of dancers dressed in elaborate masks and colorful costumes – a curious cast of characters featuring demons – as they perform sequences from La Diablada Pillareña and Corpus Christi to powerful Andean rhythms in a blissful expression of faith, as good defeats evil. After a special dinner offers the chance to sample the nation's cuisine, it will be your turn to join the dance and truly immerse yourself in the local culture. The memories you’ll create, as well as a handcrafted piece of art you’ll be given to treasure, will provide a potent reminder of a wonderful evening in Guayaquil.
