About this cruise

There's a reason 6-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Sydney on October 7, 2026 and visits Newcastle, Melbourne and Adelaide. The trip wraps in Adelaide, so you won't retrace your steps. Port days and sea days take turns, which is about as well-paced as a cruise itinerary gets. 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, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Crown Princess has 13 dining spots on board, most of them included. An October sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 6-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
