Australia & New Zealand Cruises

From £3,109 per person

 

If a full World Cruise seems like a big commitment, but you would still like to explore the world then a cruise to or from Australia and New Zealand may well fit the bill. These leisurely cruises last between 40 and 69 nights and take in some of the most stunning destinations the world has to offer. With the option of exploring the Orient in one direction or crossing the mighty Pacific and Atlantic Oceans in the other, these cruises give you the opportunity to explore destinations many can only dream of.

During the 1930s, P&O Cruises introduced voyages to and from Australia. 80 years later and these ‘line’ voyages are just as popular. Offering the chance to sail from Southampton to Sydney, Brisbane and Auckland, or board the ship in these ports and sail home, these journeys capture the essence of a traditional ocean voyage experience.

 Having taken the time to travel to the other side of the world, why not spend a few days exploring an iconic city or further afield before returning home? Of course, you are welcome to arrange your own accommodation; however we are happy to take the stress away and arrange a short city stay or an exciting land tour for you .
