Set sail on an unforgettable luxury cruise through the heart of the South Pacific, departing from Auckland and journeying to the storied shores of Guadalcanal. The South Pacific is one of the world’s most idyllic places, where sugar-white beaches, swaying palms and vibrant coral reefs set the scene for encounters with island cultures deeply rooted in tradition. Your voyage crosses vast ocean stretches with stops at secluded atolls and bustling island ports.
Experience the tranquillity of days at sea before discovering Norfolk's emerald landscapes, New Caledonia's famed Isle of Pines and Lifou Island, and Vanuatu's culturally rich islands at Port Vila, Ambrym, Pentecost, Champagne Beach, and Tegua. Journey northward to the Solomon Islands' remote Nendo and Santa Ana, culminating at historic Honiara on Guadalcanal, where palm-fringed Bonegi Beach conceals sunken WWII ships. Throughout, encounter pristine lagoons, vibrant undersea life, and welcoming island communities while travelling in comfort and style.
Numerous activities await throughout this South Pacific journey. Engage in onboard lectures on regional WWII history and culture, and refine your skills in photography workshops. Shore excursions offer snorkelling vibrant coral reefs, exploring WWII relics, kayaking secluded bays, hiking volcanic landscapes and immersing yourself in local traditions. With every port, the South Pacific reveals a new wonder in nature, heritage and human spirit.
We'll take care of the finer details, allowing you to focus your full attention on your cultural expedition cruise experience. Our cruise fares are all- inclusive, so there are no surprise extras or unexpected gratuity bills. Relax in the full knowledge that all you have to do is have a wonderful time.
