Setting Sail: Our Exciting 12-Day New Zealand & Australia Cruise Adventure

Embarking on an Epic Adventure

Ahoy, fellow cruise travelers! We are beyond excited as we prepare for our upcoming 12-day cruise getaway aboard the magnificent Celebrity Edge. As the Shore Excursion Gurus, we’ve been busy planning this journey for a few months now, and it’s finally almost time to set sail! Our itinerary is packed with stunning destinations, starting from the charming city of Auckland, New Zealand, and leading us to some awe-inspiring locations that we can't wait to explore.

A Dream Itinerary Await

Our cruise departs from Auckland, where we plan to spend three days indulging in all that this vibrant city has to offer before setting sail. From delicious cuisine at hidden gems to soaking in the stunning views atop the Sky Tower, there's so much to see and do! We also plan to checkout the glow worm caves on a day trip! After our Auckland antics, we'll hop aboard the Edge and make our way to the breathtaking Bay of Islands and follow the scenic coastline through Tauranga, Napier, Picton, and Wellington.

But the adventure doesn’t stop there! We’ll also make a stop at the picturesque Christchurch and Dunedin, renowned for their stunning architecture and rich history. Then, we’ll cruise through the breathtaking Dusky, Doubtful, and Milford Sound, where mother nature truly shines. After all the excitement, we’ll spend two relaxing days at sea reflecting on our adventures before concluding our cruise in beautiful Sydney, Australia.

Exploration Doesn’t End With the Cruise

Our adventure and fun doesn’t end when we dock in Sydney! We've allocated another three days to explore this vibrant city. From sipping coffee at local cafés in Bondi Beach to visiting the iconic Sydney Opera House, we’ll dive deep into the heart of Aussie culture. Our hearts are set on experiencing everything this breathtaking city has to offer in the time we have available.

And did we mention the shore excursions we've booked? We’re thrilled about all our planned activities and can't wait to share our insights and experiences with you. Whether it’s hiking beautiful waterfall trails, engaging with local wildlife, or learning about the indigenous culture, we are ready to create some incredible memories. Be sure to follow along as we post updates and details about our excursions in the weeks to come!

So mark your calendars, and get ready to embark on this unforgettable journey with us! Adventure calls, and we can’t wait to answer!
