14 Night New Zealand Cruise aboard the Royal Princess

Share

Prepare yourself for fourteen nights of relaxing cruising through the sea when you set sail with the Royal Princess from Sydney, Australia and back again.

This cruise is noteworthy because you will only spend time in very uncommon cities such as Bay of Islands, Lyttelton, and Wellington. This route is a rare one for the Royal. Actually, this is the only time it's going to sail it!

We include all meals, entertainment, port charges, and taxes in this price, so there are no sneaky extra fees. Coming in at less than $135 a day, this is a strong value.


The Royal Princess

More than 3,500 passengers can comfortably travel on the top-rated flagship of the Royal class, based in Seattle and Sydney, Australia.

Want to test your aim at a laser shooting range or make your way across the SeaWalk glass walkway? These amenities are offered exclusively by Princess and are both found on the Royal Princess.

The Royal Princess also offers a spa, a gym, a ping pong table, and a casino.
