New Zealand Explorer
Come with us to the great down under! This 14-night cruise through the Tasman aboard Oceania Cruises’ Regatta has kayaking, kangaroos, koalas, and so much more. Spend two days in Melbourne, where you can catch sight of a kookaburra or watch wallabies huddle and hop. In Burnie, let local cheese makers dazzle your taste buds, then cruise the Fjords of Milford Sound as craggy cliffs tower over you.
Strike out in Timaru on a sheep-laden country drive and experience movie-making history in Wellington, where The Lord of the Rings was filmed. Taste the flavor of Napier’s famous vintage vineyards and in Rotorua, spot spouting geysers. Whether you’re a sun seeker, a culture vulture, or you want to kick back and watch the day go by, this cruise has it all.
