Itinerary
Known as the city of sails, Auckland is built on a narrow strip of land surrounded by two harbours, dotted with 50 picturesque islands. In the centre, the iconic Sky Tower has views of Viaduct Harbour, which is full of superyachts and lined with bars and cafes. Volcanic cones, forest parks and stunning beaches are all within easy reach.
In downtown Auckland you can enjoy world-class dining, shopping, and sights. If you've a mind to explore, visit the island volcano of Rangitoto, or head to Waiheke, known as 'the island of wine' each are within a 40 minute ferry ride of your port.
The Bay of Islands, a stunning archipelago encompassing 144 islands and including the boutique towns of Opua, Paihia, Russell and Kerikeri, is famed for its turquoise waters and rich Māori history. Take a boat tour to explore the iconic Hole in the Rock or spot dolphins. Visit Russell, a picturesque town with colonial history, or the Waitangi Treaty Grounds, where New Zealand’s founding document was signed. Your ship will anchor in the bay, just off Russell, and you'll tender ashore.
Love Sabatini’s? (Or really good Italian dinners?) You’ll be happy to hear this popular specialty restaurant has returned to its roots. Think traditional Italian comfort cuisine. Our new menu embraces the old: tried-and-true family recipes our chefs brought with them from Italy, plus exquisite Italian wines and cocktails. You can even enjoy some shareable plates exclusively at Sabatini’s Trattoria.
Ships arriving into Sydney typically dock at Circular Quay, or the White Bay Cruise Terminal, slightly farther west. From Circular Quay, you can easily access the iconic Sydney Opera House and the Royal Botanic Garden. Public transport options include trains, buses, and ferries. White Bay passengers can take a shuttle or taxi to reach key attractions like Darling Harbour and The Rocks, known for their shops, restaurants, and historical sites.

Ship Reviews (1)
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.
