Give the gift of the land down under with a 14-night Australian cruise. We’ll cross the Great Australian Bight, visiting nine ports, culminating in an unforgettable New Year’s celebration in Sydney.

This adventure begins in Fremantle, your gateway to magical Perth, the vanguard of Australian-cool with its mix of cutting-edge art, miles of stunning beaches, and a culture that’s both relaxed and impatient for the future. From here, we stop Busselton. Head over to Margaret River to grab a glass of merlot—or two—from local vintners in this renowned wine region, followed by stops in Albany to view its beautiful Victorian architecture, and Esperance, home of Cape Le Grand National Park.

Then, celebrate Christmas at sea, where we’ll take care of the feasts and festivities while you unwrap two days of much deserved relaxation.

After Christmas, the gifts keep coming, starting with a late-night stay in Adelaide, then a hop over to Kangaroo Island. After a day at sea enjoying onboard shopping, entertainment, and relaxing in the spa, you’ll discover Eden, a rugged paradise on Earth that lives up to its name.

We arrive in Sydney with plenty of time to ring in the New Year. Renowned for its New Year’s celebrations, expect to see aerial displays, traditional Aboriginal ceremonies, and fireworks high above the iconic Opera House. And, since Sydney is such a beautiful port, we’re staying for two nights. That means more time to relax on Bondi Beach before we take one more day at sea to sail to Australia's cultural capital, Melbourne, where we conclude our adventure.
