16 Night Northern Explorer aboard the Sapphire Princess

Share

Join the Sapphire Princess and prepare for sixteen nights of relaxing travel across the sea from Perth to Sydney!

This cruise is particularly interesting because you'll exclusively call on exotic destinations such as Broome, Darwin, and Cairns. This route is an uncommon one for the Sapphire. As a matter of fact, this is the only time it's scheduled to sail it!

This is the total price, including meals, entertainment, taxes, and fees. Offered at under $155 per day, this represents a good deal.

Day 4: Broome
