Wild Fjords & Islands

About this cruise

A trip this long changes your rhythm entirely, and that's very much the point. 12 nights from Sydney on October 28, 2026, visiting Fiordland National Park, Dunedin, Lyttelton (Christchurch), Tauranga, Auckland and Bay of Islands. 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 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, You won't go hungry on Celebrity Edge. 7 restaurants come with the fare, plus 7 more when you feel like treating yourself. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. An October sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 12-night sailing is a strong place to start.
