  A cruise vacation to Australia/New Zealand is like a trip to a whole other world. Or, at least, to a whole other side of the world. Guests will visit colorful reefs, meet curious creatures and explore progressive cities nestled in unimaginable landscapes.

And with an exciting cruisetour package, they'll travel even farther into the Australian outback, to remarkable places like the Great Barrier Reef and Ayers Rock.

In New Zealand, experience it all. They'll see the country from the cosmopolitan city of Auckland all the way to the coastal regions of Queenstown. Our ships can't travel into the incredible Down Under wilderness, but our guests can with one of our Australia or New Zealand Cruisetours.
 
     
 
Auckland   Auckland

Stand atop Sky Tower, the Southern Hemisphere's tallest urban structure, and gaze over the cosmopolitan city of Auckland and its 1.3 million inhabitants. Or, tour the countryside of West Auckland, visit a private sheep farm, and see how the diverse New Zealand landscape can magically change in the blink of an eye. Beaches, countryside, bungee jumping, saltwater fishing, and much, much more - Auckland's diversity is its strength. Your clients can't miss this 'City of Sails.'

     
Ayers Rocks   Ayers Rock

Even the rocks are exciting in Australia - especially this massive monolith. Ayers Rock, known as Uluru to the locals, rises to over 1,000 feet out of the red dust of central Australia. With its striking sunset colors and mysterious springs and caves, Uluru is as fascinating to today's visitors as it has been to the local tribes for centuries. This perfectly timed visit will include sunset views of the rock, a tasty barbeque and an astronomer-led tour of the spectacular southern night skies.
     
Cairns/Port Douglas   Cairns/Port Douglas

Take a quick flight north of Sydney to Cairns, Queensland, and get to know the peaceful lagoons and lush rain forests of the Tropical North. Meet one of Australia's most famous locals - the saltwater crocodile at the exciting Crocodile Attack show.

Do your clients need another reason to take an Australian Cruisetour? Here's three words: Great...Barrier...Reef! The world's largest, most celebrated coral reef system. With the seaside village of Port Douglas as thier hub, they'll travel to the reef for an unforgettable day of swimming, snorkeling, diving and frolicking. Better bring an underwater camera!
     
Queenstown   Queenstown

Queenstown isn't called the 'adventure capital of the world' for nothing. Attracting international adrenaline junkies from around the globe, Queenstown and the surrounding area is primed for hiking, biking, camping, bungee jumping, water skiing, fly-fishing, picture taking, and anything a heart rate can take. With a thriving nightlife and a youthful spirit, an evening out will introduce guests to many local eats, drinks, and probably a few new friends. This is the perfect stop to let it all hang out.
     
Rotorua   Rotorua

Sister city to Klamath Falls, Oregon, Rotorua is known for its abundance of local geothermal activity. Bubbling mud pools, geysers and hot springs make this a hotbed for some of the country's most enjoyable spas, intriguing botanical gardens and environmental nature reserves. Make sure your clients take a trip back in time at the Rotorua Museum to see how the area thrived and then recovered following the 1886 eruption of Mount Tarawera. It's an all-natural, tropical escape.
     
Sydney   Sydney

G'day, mate! And welcome to Australia's largest city - Sydney. Your clients' tour will include enough time to explore famous sites like lively Oxford Street, the Sydney Opera House and, of course, Sydney Harbour. Plentiful bays, pristine beaches and aquamarine waters make the Harbour one of the most beautiful in the world. And, if they think that sounds eye-catching, wait 'till they see it all under the dazzling city lights at night.
