Azamara Pursuit: 14-Night Asia from Yokohama

Tokyo is one of the world's great cities, a metropolis of nearly 14 million people (37 million in the greater metro area) that layers cutting-edge technology, ancient temples, obsessive food culture, and distinctive neighborhood personalities into a dense, efficient urban landscape. The Tokyo cruise port is primarily at Harumi Passenger Ship Terminal or the newer Tokyo International Cruise Terminal in the waterfront area, both on Tokyo Bay with the city skyline in the background.

Kobe is a port city of about 1.5 million people on the southern coast of Honshu, wedged between the Rokko Mountains and Osaka Bay.

Yokohama is Japan's primary ocean cruise hub and the second-largest city in the country, about 30 kilometers south of central Tokyo. Although Tokyo is far more famous, its central harbor has no suitable cruise terminal for large ships.
