Hotel: 4* Amora Hotel Jamison Sydney

Board the stunning Celebrity Edge, your luxurious home for the next 12 nights. Renowned for its state-of-the-art design, this ship offers world-class dining, unparalleled entertainment, and the innovative Magic Carpet—an extraordinary venue floating above the sea. From the Rooftop Garden to the Eden lounge, every corner of the Celebrity Edge is designed to delight.

Relax and indulge in the many onboard activities and amenities. Unwind by the pool, enjoy a spa treatment, or savor gourmet meals curated by renowned chefs. These two days allow you to recharge as you sail towards the wonders of New Zealand.

A UNESCO World Heritage treasure, Fiordland National Park is a breathtaking wilderness of towering peaks, cascading waterfalls, and glacier-carved fjords. Cruise through the iconic Milford Sound, where sheer cliffs rise dramatically from the sea and seals bask on rocky outcrops. Venture into the remote Doubtful Sound, known for its deep stillness and misty grandeur, and explore the wild, untouched beauty of Dusky Sound, one of the park’s most secluded and pristine inlets. This is nature at its most majestic—raw, remote, and unforgettable.

Here in this capital of architectural heritage, you might think your Dunedin cruise had taken you to Edinburgh. The architecture, scenery, and culture—if not the accents—borrow heavily from those in Scotland.

Take a harbor cruise to spot albatrosses, cormorants, and other sea birds. You might even see penguins, dolphins, and seals. In town, stroll the spectacular Dunedin Botanic Garden, discover ancient Maori artifacts in the Otago Museum, or learn all about beer at Speight’s Brewery—touring, tasting, and shopping for beer gear.

Arrive in Christchurch, the "Garden City" of New Zealand. Experience the blend of historic charm and modern innovation with a visit to the Canterbury Museum or a relaxing punt ride along the Avon River.

Spend another day relaxing at sea. If you haven't already, make sure that you visit Eden, a bright and unique space that has been specially designed to dazzle all five senses.

Explore Tauranga, the gateway to Rotorua’s geothermal wonders and Maori culture. Discover the bubbling mud pools, geysers, and rich history of this remarkable region.

Dock in Auckland, the “City of Sails.” Take in the spectacular skyline from Mount Eden, visit the Auckland Museum, or enjoy a harbor cruise to experience the city’s maritime charm.

Cruise to the Bay of Islands, a haven for nature lovers and history buffs alike. Swim in crystal-clear waters, take a dolphin-watching tour, or visit the historic Waitangi Treaty Grounds.

Enjoy another two days at sea as your make your way back to Sydney. Your time is free to spend however you wish - whether you choose to relax by the pool, dine on the magic carpet, or take in a show at the theatre, the choice is yours.

This morning, your cruise ends as it arrives back into Sydney. Board a flight back to the UK later this evening, or if you wish to extend your time in Australia, speak with your travel consultant to add on accommodation, excursions, campervan, car hire or additional flights.
