The ship wasn’t the best we’ve been on but the food, service, free at sea package and entertainment was great. Cabin was small and didn’t have much storage space. Shower was lovely. Atrium was a bit drab and strangely laid out. Excursions were expensive. Enjoyed Auckland, Tauranga beach was a short walk from the ship. Spectacular scenery and waterfalls of the Sounds. Disappointed we couldn’t visit Tasmania and Eden due to adverse weather. Especially as we had arranged to meet friends who live in Tasmania. Melbourne was disappointing. Sydney was such a vibrant city with so much to see and do.

I loved all the ports of call in Japan, as well as Ha Long Bay, Bali, Australia and New Zealand. The cruise was very relaxed, the buffet was very good with food available at most times of day. I felt wearing baseball hats & sports wear in the restaurants for an evening meal was a bit too casual. The live party bands were excellent to dance to & the morning stretch class instructor very good too.

Very good itinerary. Disappointed that there were no pre port lectures, everything was via the stateroom TV. This information was good but would have been really helpful to have had prior to sailing.
Excursions were very expensive.
First cruise I have been on where there was no library.
Speciality Dining was very good. Rarely used the buffet. Dining room, quality of food varied.
Staff excellent
Never a problem with the lifts
Getting on / off the ship was smooth
Not enough seating in the atrium
Entertainment wasn’t great - the ‘balloon guy’ was better suited to a children’s party!
Apart from quizzes- little activities offered.

The capital of New South Wales, Sydney is a popular tourist destination thanks to its variety of attractions, restaurants and picturesque surroundings. Best known for the Sydney Opera House, there’s so much to see and do in this vibrant city. Alongside Sydney Opera House, particular highlights include the Royal Botanic Garden and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Things to do in Sydney:
Opera House
An iconic attraction in Sydney, the Sydney Opera House is home to a variety of performances throughout the year and features unique 20th century architecture. Located on Sydney Harbour, this extraordinary building is well worth a visit to, whether you’re looking to watch a performance there or to simply explore it.
Royal Botanic Garden
A popular attraction in Sydney is the picturesque Royal Botanic Garden. Spanning 30 hectares on Sydney Harbour, it has a wide array of plant life and boasts incredible views of the Sydney Opera House and the city's wide array of skyscrapers. Established in the early 19th century, it makes for a wonderful visit if you’re looking for a break from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Sydney Harbour Bridge
Alternatively, you could reach for the sky at the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Constructed out of steel, this prominent bridge connects the central business district to the North Shore. What’s so incredible about the ‘coat hanger’ bridge, is that you can climb it and take in breathtaking views of the city and harbour!

Dravuni Island
DAY 9
30 Apr 2026
Time at Port: from 7 AM to 5 PM
A stunning volcanic island in Fiji, which is also part of the fascinating Great Astrolabe Reef, Dravuni Island is an idyllic paradise where unrivalled adventure and ultimate relaxation await. With a permanent population of just 125, this miniscule island doesn’t even cover an area of one square-kilometre; it really doesn’t get more remote, and more unspoilt, than this. Boasting long stretches of white-sand beaches, sparkling crystal-clear waters, and the opportunity to truly disconnect from the outside world, it can’t be overstated just how incredible this port of call is. Here, you’ll enjoy an authentic Fijian experience, and find picture-perfect views everywhere you look. It’s like stepping into a postcard, in the best possible way.
Things to do in Dravuni Island:
Dravuni Island Lookout
If you fancy stretching your legs when you arrive, a short hike up to the inland peak on Dravuni Island is always a good idea. You’ll be able to get here along a fairly easy hiking trail, and you’ll be met with fantastic views of the island when you arrive. It’s also a great spot to grab a picture of your cruise ship, which you should have no trouble seeing.
Snorkelling
If sun lounging isn’t something you want to spend the whole time doing, you can actually snorkel straight from the island’s beaches. With the island being within the Great Astrolabe Reef, which is the world’s fourth-largest coral reef, you won’t have to swim very far at all to find some stunning marine life. A rocky outcrop right by the island’s wharf is home to some of the most easily-accessible coral, making this almost too easy to enjoy.
Dravuni Island Village
If you’re looking for an authentic Fijian experience, it doesn’t get more authentic than the village on Dravuni Island. Here, you’ll be able to observe village life and learn more about the culture here from the friendly locals. You’ll also find the University of the South Pacific research station here, which is used to study the local marine life. While you will have to be mindful of the village’s customs, spending some time here is always special.

Suva
DAY 11
02 May 2026
Time at Port: from 7 AM to 5 PM
The capital city and largest metropolitan area in Fiji, Suva is a destination worth looking forward to when you’re exploring Australasia and the Pacific Ocean. Here, you’ll find an abundance of vibrant culture, sensational cuisine, and unforgettable adventures. Its importance to the region around it, though, cannot be understated; Suva is the socioeconomic centre of the South Pacific, and is slowly cementing itself as the region’s fashion capital too! So, you’ll really be able to enjoy the best of the best when visiting this fascinating city. Those who want to stay where the action is, you’ll find Suva home to lively marketplaces and several fascinating museums, alongside plenty of places to tuck into some flavourful local food. Beyond this, though, you’ll find so much more to enjoy; the Colo-i-Suva Forest Park is just one of these destinations – but, perhaps, the best for those with limited time in the capital city. A luscious nature reserve just a short distance from Suva, the hiking routes here are exceptional; and, if you want, you’ll be able to swim and bird-watch here too. However you feel like spending your time, you’re in for a real treat when Suva is on your itinerary.
Things to do in Suva:
Colo-i-Suva Forest Park
Established in 1872, the Colo-i-Suva Forest Park is part of the Queen’s Commonwealth Canopy – a network of forest conservation programmes developed in 2015 to help protect the natural landscape of Commonwealth countries – and a stunningly beautiful palace to visit when in Suva. Home to a variety of hiking trails, the opportunity to swim, and plenty of birds to spot with your binoculars, everyone can enjoy spending some time here. Among the native flora here, of which there is a lot to admire, you’ll also find some African Mahogany, which was planted here throughout the 1940s and 1950s.
Suva Fiji Temple
A rather recent addition to the architecture of Suva, having only been completed in 2000, the Suva Fiji Temple is a remarkable temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the first of its kind to be built in Fiji. Designed with traditional designs and styles in mind, it’s located at one of the highest points in the city and features a 72-foot tall spire. With subtle nods to the local culture alongside the broader symbolism utilised by the Church, it’s a sight worth seeing and stands out against much of Suva’s other architecture.
Fiji Museum
Sitting in the heart of Suva’s Thurston Gardens, stunning botanical gardens worth visiting in their own right, the Fiji Museum is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in learning more about Fiji and Fijian culture. It’s home to the most important collection of Fijian artefacts in the world, with exhibitions showing off a variety of items of historic importance – from authentic canoes and objects related to cannibalism, to contemporary artwork and more.
