About This Cruise
The 12 Night Escape Down Under Sydney To Cairns is a 12-night one-way itinerary aboard Regent Seven Seas Navigator. You board in Sydney and disembark in Cairns, calling at 10 ports across 2 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Australia (Sydney, Brisbane, Brisbane and 6 more), Papua New Guinea (Rabaul, Alotau, Kiriwina Island and 1 more) and Australia (Cairns).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Sydney and home from Cairns, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 8 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.
