Two nights round trip from Singapore aboard Genting Dream, calling at Port Klang. No sea days.
Every time on this page is ship’s time. It is set by the captain and does not always match the local clock — or your phone.
One port, and no sea days. You end where you started.
Singapore is where you board and where you return. The line on the map is indicative; the course a ship actually steers is set on the day for weather and traffic.
Times are the ship’s scheduled arrival and departure and can move for weather or port traffic. All-aboard is normally 30 minutes before sailing.
Ships use either the Marina Bay Cruise Centre or the older terminal at HarbourFront, and both sit on the MRT network, so the city is a train ride rather than a taxi fare. She sails at eight in the evening, so the first evening is aboard. The two cruise terminals are on opposite sides of the city, so check which one your ship uses before booking a hotel or a transfer.
This is a gateway rather than a destination. Kuala Lumpur is the day: the Petronas Towers, the mosque and colonial buildings around Merdeka Square, and the limestone caves and coloured staircase at Batu Caves on the northern edge. Chinatown and the central market fill an afternoon if you would rather walk than tick things off. Klang town itself, nearer the port, has a good Indian food street and very little else. Ships berth at the cruise terminal at Port Klang, which is a working port with nothing around it; Kuala Lumpur is about an hour away by road. Printed as 'Port Klang (Kuala Lumpur)'. Alongside at Boustead Cruise Centre, the only international cruise terminal at Port Klang - so NOT a tender call, unlike Melaka. See `unsure`: the line does not state this.
The cruise ends here and you disembark in the morning. Ships use either the Marina Bay Cruise Centre or the older terminal at HarbourFront, and both sit on the MRT network, so the city is a train ride rather than a taxi fare. The two cruise terminals are on opposite sides of the city, so check which one your ship uses before booking a hotel or a transfer.
Five grades on this ship. The gap between the cheapest and the dearest is wider than most people expect, and so is the difference in what you get.
No window, and the most compact cabin on board at roughly fourteen square metres. The cheapest way onto a ship whose appeal is mostly in its public spaces anyway, so it is a reasonable trade on the short Singapore sailings. Some sleep four using a pull-down berth, which at that floor area is tight for anyone above childhood.
A sealed window and no balcony, generally lower down. Slightly larger than the inside cabins and the cheapest grade with daylight, which matters more on this ship than most because the sailings are short and the sea days few. A number of them look out onto lifeboats rather than open water.
A private veranda, a queen bed that splits into twins, and around twenty square metres. On a two or three-night sailing out of Singapore this is the grade most people are glad of, because the public decks are busy and the balcony is the only quiet outdoor space you control. Balcony depth varies with position.
The same idea with more floor area and a better fit-out, sold mainly at families: it takes four comfortably, some have a bathtub, and a cot can be added. The extra room is real. It buys no access to anything - the pools, restaurants and the show lounge are the same ones everybody else queues for.
A gated enclave on the upper decks with its own pool, restaurant, lounge, reception and gym, plus a butler; grades run from a straightforward suite through a penthouse to a two-storey villa with a private sundeck. What it really buys is separation from a very full ship, more than floor area. It is priced as a different product, and behaves like one.
Midship and low is the calmest ride. A ship pitches around its middle and rolls around its centreline, so the middle of the ship low down moves least. Forward and high is the worst combination.
A “guarantee” fare is a category, not a room. It saves real money and the line assigns your actual cabin whenever it likes — sometimes days before departure, sometimes with an obstructed view. Fine for a couple who do not mind. A poor choice if you are travelling with children, need a specific location, or are prone to seasickness. On some lines a family of four booked this way can be split across two cabins.
The fare you compare online rarely covers everything. Tick anything you want priced with the cruise — bought with the booking it is usually cheaper than on board, and you know the total before you go.
Singapore. Cambodian passport: NO VISA REQUIRED. Cambodia does not appear on Singapore's list of nationalities requiring an entry visa (the ICA list of 40 visa-required countries and territories). Passport must have at least 6 months validity. Australian passport: NO VISA REQUIRED. Australia does not appear on ICA's visa-required list. Passport must have at least 6 months validity.
Malaysia. Cambodian passport: No visa for a stay of under one month. Cambodia does not appear on Immigration's published list of 'Countries required to apply for a visa to enter Malaysia', and the note under that list states: 'Visa is not required for a stay of less than one (1) month for ASEAN nationals except Myanmar. Visas required for duration of stay exceeds (1) month except for Brunei and Singapore nationals.' Cambodia is an ASEAN member and is not the excepted Myanmar. THIS IS THE ASEAN EXEMPTION AND IT DOES APPLY HERE -- it is stated by Malaysian Immigration as a rule covering ASEAN nationals as a class, not inferred from another country's treatment. Australian passport: No visa. Australia is not on Immigration's visa-required list, and appears in the department's second list -- countries 'which do not require a visa for any purpose of entry' (entry 3 of 51, between Antigua & Barbuda and Bahamas).

The fares above are cruise-only: taxes and port fees are extra. The line charges an automatic daily gratuity to your onboard account, and drinks, specialty dining and shore excursions are extra. We set the whole total out for you before you pay a deposit.
Many standard travel policies exclude medical treatment beyond a set distance from land — which is exactly where you are on a sea day — and cap or exclude evacuation from a vessel. Helicopter evacuation from a ship runs into six figures.
Buy a policy with explicit cruise cover, and buy it on the day you pay the deposit, not before you fly. Cancellation cover only works if the policy is already in force when the thing that cancels your trip happens — and cancellation penalties on a cruise typically begin months before departure, not days.
Check the evacuation limit as a number. “Unlimited medical” does not always mean unlimited evacuation.
Seasickness is a smaller problem than most people expect — about one in ten visits to a ship’s medical centre. Slips and falls, and ordinary coughs and colds, are both more common.
If you are susceptible: take something before you sail rather than after symptoms start, pick a cabin midship and low, and get where you can see the horizon. This route is sheltered by comparison with open ocean, and a ship this size moves very little.
The medical centre is an urgent-care clinic, not a hospital, and it is not free — consultations and medicines are charged. Bring your own of anything you take regularly.
