Tasman Drift – Napier, Wellington & Sydney

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Auckland on October 16, 2027 and visits Napier, Wellington and Sydney. Last stop: Sydney. The final stretch is open ocean, which gives you time to process everything you've seen and use the ship one last time. 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, Royal Princess has 11 dining spots on board, most of them included. An October sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
