Dusky Sound (Scenic Cruising)
28 Nov 2027
Arrives at: 8:30 am, Departs at: 10:15 am (1 hours in port)
Cruise
Dusky Sound is a secluded, pristine, and breathtakingly beautiful fiord in New Zealand's Fiordland National Park, with sheer, lush green cliffs, numerous waterfalls, and vast seclusion. Accessible exclusively by air or water, it provides a "true wilderness" experience with abundant animals such as seals, penguins, and dolphins. As one of the largest and most complicated fiords in the vicinity, it receives significantly fewer visitors than Milford Sound, providing profound, peaceful isolation.
Scenic cruising in Doubtful Sound offers a vast, remote wilderness experience in Fiordland National Park, distinguished by its immense scale it is three times longer and ten times larger than its famous neighbor, Milford Sound. Known as the "Sound of Silence," the experience often includes a designated moment where the engines are cut, allowing guests to listen to nothing but birdsong and gushing waterfalls. The journey itself is an adventure, as it has no direct road access and requires a boat across Lake Manapouri followed by a bus trip over the Wilmot Pass. While cruising, visitors can spot unique wildlife like resident bottlenose dolphins, New Zealand fur seals, and the rare Fiordland crested penguin.
Scenic cruising through Milford Sound is an awe-inspiring journey into the heart of New Zealand’s Fiordland National Park. As your boat glides through the dark, mirror like waters, you are surrounded by near vertical cliffs that rise thousands of feet, topped by the iconic, 1,692 metre Mitre Peak. You’ll sail past permanent glaciers and feel the "glacier spray" of massive waterfalls like Stirling Falls, which drop directly into the sea. Along the way, keep an eye out for local wildlife, including fur seals lounging on "Seal Rock," rare Fiordland crested penguins, and pods of playful bottlenose dolphins.

Excellent ship crew very friendly and efficient ship cleanliness excellent. Cabin excellent well positioned for me and very quiet. 3159. The food in the main restaurant and ocean view excellent you could not fault any aspect of it. We did trips ever day it docked whether with celebrity or other agents and all were of high quality and well organised. The only comment I will make is that the disembarking at Auckland needs assessing as was totally chaotic and not well organised people were allowed off while they were still unloading cases = one jam packed terminal &frayed tempers.

This was my ninth Celebrity cruise, but my first on an Edge Class ship. It was superb.
The infinity balcony cabins are very spacious, comfortable and well equipped, and the en suite shower room is more spacious than on Solstice class. The cabins are also better sound-proofed.
The entire ship is smart and luxurious, with plentiful deck and public spaces.
Two things especially impressed me on the Edge - firstly the standard of service of all the crew, secondly the food. In all of the four inclusive dining rooms, and in the Oceanview buffet, the food was superb. Every meal was delicious.

Arrive in Adelaide by late afternoon for your choice of curated Off-Train Experiences. Savour premium McLaren Vale wines before a cliffside dinner at Star of Greece, or sample artisan gin and cheese in the Adelaide Hills ahead of a feast at Haus, beautifully showcasing local produce. In the heart of the city, the Icons of Adelaide tour features a behind-the-scenes look at Coopers Brewery, a scenic drive, and an authentic teppanyaki dinner at Shiki before a twilight stroll to the iconic Adelaide Oval. Or, step inside the historic Adelaide Central Market for an after-hours guided tour and exclusive private sit-down dinner.
Following a memorable evening, return to the train to continue your journey west.
Today highlights the vast, unforgettable vistas of the Nullarbor Plain. Journey across this legendary expanse on the world’s longest stretch of straight railway track, watching endless desert horizons unfold outside your window. Along the way, the train pauses at Cook—once a bustling railway hub, now an evocative ghost town with history etched into its weathered architecture.
By evening, arrive at Rawlinna, situated on the remote edge of Australia’s largest sheep station. Here, the outback comes alive as you enjoy an unforgettable signature long-table dinner beneath a canopy of stars (Sept–May). During cooler months, gather around a roaring bonfire with premium drinks and canapés, fully soaking up this remarkable wilderness setting.
