Cruise 

Cruising to New Zealand is a well-established tradition. When the first settlers came here, it was by boat and even up to the 1960’s it was the only way to arrive in this country. Cruising to New Zealand today is, happily, a much more comfortable and luxurious experience.

The most popular places for boarding a cruise to New Zealand are Australia and the South Pacific. We also have adventure cruises, bound for Antarctica, passing through here as well as round-the-world cruises.

Cruising – even simple boating - is a magical way to see the country. The compact nature of New Zealand means that no region is more than an overnight’s journey from the next. As you cruise amongst the outer islands you get a different perspective of this land and landscape; the unfolding of the dramatic landscape into the tranquility and welcome of the harbour. And when you’re in harbour there are many things to do. Take a tour or package and view the attractions of the region or you can choose to wander at will, shopping, sightseeing and soaking up the culture before jumping back on board and heading to the next stop. There are worse ways to travel.
