Embark Oceania Cruises’ Regatta in Auckland and watch for dolphins, whales and blue penguins as they dance through the sparkling waves as you venture towards Rotorua.
Discover the dynamic city of Tauranga, where urban sophistication seamlessly blends with the untamed beauty of the outdoors. Indulge your senses in Gisborne, a coastal gem known for its rich flavors and culinary delights. Sample the exquisite wines from Napier’s renowned vineyards, and discover one of the world’s best seafront views in Picton. Stroll through Cathedral Square in Christchurch, and in Dunedin, lose yourself in a fascinating blend of Scottish and Maori traditions.

Encounter a Tasmanian devil, one of Australia’s most unique and beloved creatures, up close in Burnie. Before bidding farewell in Sydney, spend a few days in Melbourne, where you can glimpse the mischievous kookaburra or witness the adorable wallabies as they huddle and hop.
