Solomon Saltos Expedition – Port Vila & Mystery Island

About this cruise

There's a reason 9-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Sydney on December 8, 2027 and visits Lelepa Island Vanuatu, Port Vila and Mystery Island. It starts gently with sea days, so by the time you reach the first port you'll have explored the ship and actually feel on holiday. Big cities, reef snorkelling, and New Zealand's green mountains. Genuinely varied. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Anthem of the Seas keeps you well fed. 15 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. While everyone else deals with the December cold, you'll be somewhere warmer. And floating. 9 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
