Magical Mediterranean Cruise   , VIC, Australia, Jul 2025
What an incredible tour around the Mediterranean. The weather was sensational, the boat was well organised and the cruise staff couldn’t have been more helpful or delightful. Thanks to Grace’s assistance, everything from booking my trip to getting on the plane was seamless. Highly recommend!
Alaska in Spring   , QLD, Australia, Apr 2025
Great adventure through Alaskan pristine wilderness seeing wildlife in Spring. The Holland America ship was good and provided good service especially their speciality restaurants. The trip was just too short and the weather was a bit cold and wet.

This cruise was a lovely relaxing snapshot of the south island of New Zealand   , NSW, Australia, Mar 2025
This cruise was a lovely relaxing snapshot of the south island of New Zealand with our first stop being Milford Sound, Dusky Sound and then Doubtful Sound which were so incredible to view. The next stops were Dunedin, Christchurch and Wellington which all had their own diverse and individual history to see. Travelling from Sydney Harbour in the early ...read more evening was also spectacular and returning at 5.00am into Sydney Harbour and leaving the ship to look back at the harbour, the Bridge and the Opera House was so special and an added bonus to this cruise.

The entire trip was very enjoyable and there was numerous activities on board the Ovation of the Seas and incredible musicians entertaining the passengers at various points throughout the cruise, not only the nightly shows. We enjoyed very much the Wellington excursion to the Shipwreck coast which included a visit to Pencarrow Lodge perched high on the cliff with stunning views to the South Island etc. Such a beautiful Lodge which included a lovely morning tea.
