This 78-foot, double-decker event yacht redefines luxury on the water, offering over 278m2 of floating entertainment space in Victoria Harbour.
Beyond standard harbour cruises, additional itineraries can include a Southern Island cruise by Repulse Bay or a seafood dinner at Lamma Island.

20. Natural wonders
Explore the rock formations, moss-covered boulders, and moist crevices sculpted by centuries of water and air that lend a stunning, almost mystical quality to the Tutulari Inararo Avatar Gorge in Pampanga, Philippines. This paradise within the ancestral domain of the indigenous Aeta community was discovered only several years ago.
Then hike off to Puning Hot Spring, formed by the eruption of Mount Pinatubo, to soak in its hot and cold pools and get buried in a hot sand before being covered in mud, for a relaxing and cleansing ablution. This tour is organised by Pinatubo Mountainero, for up to 12 pax per group.
21. Executive escapes
Located near Ranthambore National Park in Rajasthan, India, Aamaghati Wildlife Resort offers accommodation perfect for exploring local wildlife, including tigers. Jungle safaris are available upon request, accompanied by expert guides. On clear nights, stargazing can also be enjoyed.
Suitable for groups of up to 250 people, evenings can feature an outdoor high tea under a Mango tree, complete with displays of local arts and crafts like pottery and bangle making, alongside musical performances. A unique touch: each room number begins with ‘T’, mirroring the numbering system for tigers in Ranthambore National Park.

23. Fold of honour
For a captivating cultural experience, delegates can explore the rich symbolism behind the tanjak, traditional Malay headgear. More than just folded cloth, the tanjak signifies rank, heritage, and identity. With over 208 documented folding styles, each variation tells a unique story.
Participants will learn how the tanjak serves as non-verbal communication, conveying status, allegiance, and pride through intricate folds that honour centuries of tradition. This activity is organised within a heritage building in Kuala Lumpur by Dusky Leaf Adventures.

The sacred art form of Sbek Thom – a UNESCO listed cultural treasure – has been entertaining Cambodians since pre-Angkorian times with towering puppets made of intricately-carved leather used to tell the tale of the Reamker, the Khmer version of the Ramayana.
The Sovanna Phum Art Association offers private puppet-making and dance workshops in Phnom Penh, giving visitors the unique chance to learn more about the UNESCO-listed art form that teeters on the brink of extinction.
