Share

Settle in for fourteen nights of breathtaking travel through the sea when you embark on the Sapphire Princess from Auckland to Sydney, Australia.

We include all meals, entertainment, port charges, and taxes in this, so that you can compare cruises easily. At less than $150 per day, this deal is good.
