About This Cruise
The 11 Night Australia & New Zealand from Sydney to Auckland is a 11-night one-way itinerary aboard Norwegian Spirit. You board in Sydney and disembark in Auckland, calling at 8 ports across 3 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Australia (Sydney, Eden), Tasmania (Burnie), Australia (Melbourne) and New Zealand (Fjordland National Park, Dunedin, Timaru and 2 more).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Sydney and home from Auckland, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 3 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
