In 2025 and 2026, the Riveria and the Regatta cruise liners each have one cruise sailing from Sydney to Auckland.
Travelling through Australia and New Zealand, experience destinations such as Melbourne, Hobart, Dunedin and Wellington.
In Melbourne, head into the Dandenong Mountains and ride the Puffing Billy steam train through the forest. Meet the koalas, wallabies and more at a wildlife park or explore local wineries. Take a walk and discover the city's marvelous architecture, chic galleries and boutiques.
Stroll past Victorian Gothic buildings, visit the exquisite botanic gardens, take the cable car up the mountain for a fantastic view, or head for the city beach. Wellington offers amazing views from the harbour, with plenty to do. Visit a sheep or cattle station or even see some of the sites where the Lord of the Rings trilogy was filmed.
On board the Regatta, the cruise liner is the flagship of the Oceania Cruises fleet and features modern suites and staterooms which were refurbished in 2022. Regatta offers four unique, open-seating restaurants, the Aquamar Spa + Vitality Center, eight lounges and bars, a casino and 333 suites and redefined staterooms, nearly 70% of which feature private verandas. Regatta has more than 400 crew to serve a maximum of 670 guests.
Similarly, the Riviera cruise liner features multiple gourmet restaurants. It offers food and wine pairings at La Reserve by Wine Spectator as well as the opportunity for private dining at Privée. Riviera was also refurbished in 2022 and holds a maximum capacity of 1250 guests, with experiences such as Aquarmar Spa + Vitality Center or a hands-on cooking class at The Culinary Center to be had onboard.
