                                              Freighter Pricing Guide:  Budget about $135 (about £90) per person per day plus any dues and taxes.

  Rickmers Pearl String Round-the-World Service (124 days with 18/25-day break)

m/v RICKMERS ANTWERP, m/v RICKMERS DALIAN, m/v RICKMERS HAMBURG, m/v RICKMERS JAKARTA, m/v RICKMERS NEW ORLEANS, m/v RICKMERS SEOUL, m/v RICKMERS SHANGHAI, m/v RICKMERS SINGAPORE and m/v RICKMERS TOKYO - (2 Double and 2 Single cabins, swimming pool, maximum 6 passengers), 30,000 dwt tons.

NOTE: until further notice passengers will not be carried on the stretch between Genoa and Singapore. Unfortunately, this ban has had to be imposed because some passengers have ignored officers' instructions to stay off the decks in areas where pirates are active. The duration of this passage is about 18-25 days, which would allow passengers about a three-week break in either Europe and/or Southeast Asia before rejoining the ship in Singapore. Alternatively, we can arrange passage through Suez on a fast container ship.

Itinerary: Hamburg - Antwerp - Genoa  (All passengers must disembark here until further notice) - Suez - Jakarta - Singapore (Passengers may embark or re-board here)- Hong Kong - Shanghai - Dalian - Pusan  - Yokohama - New Orleans - Houston - Baltimore - Hamburg, ports subject to change.
