Silversea
A luxurious cruise means many things to many people but we feel that Silversea’s small ship cruises personify the true meaning of comfort. Our intimate, more ultra-luxury ships can sail up narrow waterways into the heart of a city, or tie up right at the pier while others must anchor off shore. And for those who yearn to explore the new and unknown, Silversea’s expedition ships can transport you to the furthermost boundaries of the planet.

Enjoy free-flowing premium wines and spirits, delicious gourmet cuisine, in-suite dining, full butler service for every suite and of course all gratuities. Whether you long to mingle in the Mediterranean, swim with the turtles of the Galapagos or embrace the glaciers of Alaska, there is something special about knowing that this cruising is all inclusive.

Amazing Scandinavia trip Follow the Northern Lights (Northbound) , NSW, Australia, Jan 2026
We did an extended land and sea tour with Hurtigruten from Oslo, up through Norway then cruised up past the north Cape and then travelled down through Laplands then down to Helsinki. The scenery was spectacular. We saw amazing northern lights in Lapland especially. Hurtigruten cruise was very comfortable. Typical cruise ship cabin, well maintained. read more Meals were so provided and varied from buffet to ala carte. Food was good quality. We had also booked a Travelmarvel river cruise, however due to damage to a lock in the river system they had to cancel the cruise. While we were very disappointed, they fully refunded our payment, and let us stay on board for 3 nights with all meals and drinks until we made other arrangements. Overall, a fantastic trip. Thank you Hannah for helping us arrange yet another trip. You are always there to help we really appreciate all that you've done.
Northern Lights & Winter Wonderland   Follow the Northern Lights (Northbound) , NSW, Australia, Jan 2026
Our 17 day journey through Norway, Lapland & Finland was phenomenal. It was a combined Cruise/Land tour with Hurtigruten & I can honestly say all hotels used were of a very high standard, best I've had on any tour & the Glass Igloos were a highlight. The Hurtigruten ship is a working ship not a cruise ship, however rooms were comfortable & food was read more good. We took this tour in Winter, Jan 2026, & I had to keep pinching myself, it felt like I was living in a Xmas fairytale, snowed everyday & Northern Lights at night, surreal.

The activities offered on this itinerary were exceptional eg. Husky dog sledding, Reindeer Safari etc. Would 100% recommend this tour to anyone. As for our consultant Hannah Campbell, she was amazing. We were a group of 4 friends travelling together so there were alot of questions. I was nominated spokesperson for the group & anytime I emailed Hannah she was always so quick to respond back. We were so impressed with Hannah & Global Journeys that we currently have another 2 active bookings in the system with her. Would highly recommend both Hannah & Global Journeys. Can't wait for our next adventures!
Norway and Iceland Cruise Icelandic & Norwegian Fjords , NSW , Australia, Jul 2025
We booked our Princess cruise around Norway and Iceland through Hannah at Global Journeys. Hannah has now coordinated several holidays for us and we couldn’t ask for better service anywhere. Everything is always promptly and meticulously organised. Hannah’s attention to detail is outstanding and ensures a very smooth and enjoyable holiday from start read more to finish. Nothing ever seems too much trouble for her to follow up.

We have also found that Global Journeys is very competitive price wise and happily recommend their services for wherever you wish to travel. We really enjoyed cruising with Princess again on this trip. We appreciate the standard of their service, food and staterooms, especially in the Reserve Collection. We do find the shore excursions they offer to be on the pricey side, but with some pre-cruise research, more price competitive options can often be found in the various ports of call. Good luck with your holiday planning! No matter where you may be planning to go, it’s worth giving Global Journeys a call! Wishing you happy and safe travels.
APT expedition cruise Northern Europe Iceland, Faroe Islands and Scotland , NSW, Australia, Jul 2025
Would certainly book with Global Journeys again, as Hannah Perry, our travel consultant was always prompt in responding to any queries or concerns, gave us a very good price for our luxury cruise & also had us upgraded to a higher deck on ship, Seabourn Venture. Can’t recommend her enough! As for cruise itself, we are probably not as enthusiastic even read more though ship was luxurious, with exquisite food, beautifully presented & staff were excellent, as we found it difficult to relax. You always had to be at lecture or on excursion! While majority of shore excursions were well organised & interesting, there were definitely others that were tiring & involved much effort to get from ship to shore for little purpose - (Brock!) Last day was especially exhausting with morning activity & long afternoon bus trip, when majority of passengers needed to organise luggage to depart ship early next morning.
Viking cruise Norway and Iceland   Iceland & Norway's Arctic Explorer , VIC, Australia, Jun 2025
Great Viking cruise - the coast line of Norway is spectacular. Global Journeys assistance throughout the booking was first class, and we certainly appreciated Hannah’s help in getting early receipt of luggage tags etc. We booked a future Viking cruise through Hannah whilst on our Norwegian cruise , proof positive of our recommendation for both Viking and Hannah.
Princess Cruises Iceland & Norway , WA, Australia, Jun 2025
We recently booked a cruise through Racheal at Global Journeys, and once again, everything was exceptional. This time we explored Iceland and Norway — the fjords were absolutely stunning, and the glacier walk in Iceland was an unforgettable experience. After that, we continued on to the Baltics, where the sights were just as incredible.

We’ve been read more on quite a few cruises now, and the last three have all been booked through Racheal. I honestly can’t fault her service — she’s prompt, professional, and always helpful. Her attention to detail and quick responses make planning so much easier.

I’ve recommended her to others, including my daughter, who’s also used her services. Global Journeys offers competitive pricing, and the awards on their website speak for themselves. If you're considering a cruise or any kind of travel, don’t hesitate to reach out to them — you won’t regret it. I certainly haven’t — in fact, I’ve already booked another cruise with them next year to Fiji!
