What's included?
Sydney is a bustling coastal city in Australia, famous for its stunning landmarks like the Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge, and beautiful beaches such as Bondi, offering a vibrant blend of culture, outdoor activities, and a thriving arts scene. The gateway to cruising around Australia and New Zealand.
We're offering three different cruise destinations here for you to choose from. Explore New Zealand or, in Maori, Aotearoa - the 'land of the white cloud' - famous for breath taking mountain scenery, lush, gently rolling hills, dramatic fiords and charming coastal towns. Take a cruise to Queensland and explore lush green rainforests, golden beaches and the incredible Barrier Reef, or head to idyllic, Robinson Crusoe-esque islands of the South Pacific and discover a slower pace of life a world away from the routine of home.
