Christmas always comes around quickly so plan ahead now for a total, live-it-up escape for Christmas 2024, with an ultra-luxe, totally inclusive voyage from Australia to New Zealand with Silversea that includes everything from private transfers from home and Business Class flights to beverages, tours and even a private butler.
Packaged up much like a Christmas gift by Australian small ship cruising specialist, Cruise Traveller, the new, five-star, 16-night ‘Tasman Sea Tinsel’ package also offers the allure of a US$200 per twin suite onboard spending credit for bookings made by July 31, 2023.
Cruise Traveller’s special Christmas and New Year escape begins on December 20, 2024, when guests will board Silversea’s luxurious, boutique ship, the 596-guest Silver Muse, for a festive, 16-night cruise from Sydney to Auckland. Interstate guests in Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide or Perth will also receive an executive, private car transfer from their home to the airport (within 80km) and a Business Class flight to Sydney.
Decked from bow to stern with Christmas sparkle, Silver Muse will treat guests to a spectacular sailaway out of Sydney Harbour bound for Eden, Melbourne and Burnie and then across the Tasman to New Zealand’s majestic Fjordland and the rarely visited port of Bluff at the bottom of New Zealand – famous for the world’s best oysters. The journey then traces the South Island to the ports of Dunedin, Christchurch and Picton and then to Napier, Gisborne and Tauranga on the North Island before reaching Auckland where the cruise ends.
Christmas will be celebrated in the Tasman Sea and New Year’s Eve off the coast of NZ, with all the festive traditions and no cooking or cleaning up required!
After disembarking in Auckland, guests will be flown back to Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide or Perth in Business Class, with an executive, private car transfer back home again (within 80km).
Onboard the cruise, all guests will enjoy the services of a personal butler, an open bar throughout the cruise and complimentary excursions ashore, adding to the non-stop indulgence. Guests can choose from a range of included excursions such as Larnach Castle from Dunedin, the famous Marlborough wine region from Picton and a visit to Rotorua’s geothermal wonders from Tauranga.
