This summer, StarCruises is redefining the weekend getaway with its newly reimagined Star Navigator. Departing from Keelung, this 3 Day / 2 Night High Seas weekend cruise is more than just a journey—it’s a global celebration at sea, blending diverse cultures, festive traditions, and world-class cuisine into an unforgettable experience.

A Weekend of Culture, Cuisine, and Celebration
Themed ‘Global Celebrations at Sea’, each voyage aboard the Star Navigator offers travellers a unique opportunity to explore the world’s vibrant cultures without stepping ashore. Through a rotating showcase of traditions, performances, and culinary delights, every sailing becomes a new adventure.

“We are thrilled to introduce our ‘Global Celebrations at Sea’ thematic cruises,” said Michael Goh, President of StarCruises. “Each High Seas weekend cruise is designed to be an immersive sensory experience—allowing guests to savour international dishes, witness captivating performances, and participate in cultural workshops, all in one extraordinary setting.”

Beyond the enriching activities, guests can also indulge in BBQ Nights under the stars every Saturday, where grilled delicacies from around the world are served against the breathtaking backdrop of the open sea.

April: Japan Comes to Life at Sea
For sailings on April 4 and 18, the Star Navigator will embrace the essence of Japan, offering a culinary and cultural extravaganza. Guests can enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine, from sushi and ramen to exquisite wagyu beef.

Live performances will showcase Sakura-inspired dances, inviting guests to learn and participate in the rhythmic beauty of cherry blossom celebrations. Hands-on activities like Ikebana flower arrangement workshops, origami sessions, and traditional tea ceremonies will further immerse travellers in Japan’s rich heritage.

May: A Korean Cultural Immersion at Sea
In May (2, 16, and 30 sailings), the ship transforms into a floating celebration of Korean culture and cuisine. Guests can feast on iconic dishes such as Bulgogi, Bibimbap, Kimchi, and Tteokbokki, alongside K-pop dance sessions, traditional drum performances, and hanbok-wearing workshops.

Whether you’re a fan of Korean pop culture or eager to explore its deep-rooted traditions, this High Seas weekend cruise promises an unforgettable cultural adventure.
