28 Night Cruise from Sydney

About this cruise

Block out 28 nights from October 7, 2026 and let this sailing from Sydney do its thing. The route covers Newcastle, Melbourne and Adelaide, with additional stops along the Australia & New Zealand and there's plenty of room to breathe between each stop. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 11 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Flat whites in Melbourne, coral at the Great Barrier Reef, and fjords in New Zealand. Hard to pick a highlight. Of the stops, Darwin tends to be the one people talk about: Where the outback meets the Timor Sea. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Crown Princess has 13 dining spots on board, most of them included. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
