Sailing between 2024 and 2026, Princess Cruises have five trips that will take you from Brisbane to Sydney stopping at several stunning locations.
Explore various destinations including Airlie Beach, Willis Island, and of course, Sydney.
Airlie Beach is your gateway to the Whitsunday Archipelago. These 74 islands feature pristine fringing reefs, calm, lagoon-like waters, and superb beaches. The archipelago is one of Australia's premier playgrounds. Willis Island is one of several tropical islands sitting beyond the Great Barrier Reef in the Coral Sea Islands Territory and is surrounded by thriving reefs where many creatures make their homes. Numbering into the thousands, Willis Island itself caters to many species of seabirds, including Masked, Brown and Red-footed Boobies that cry out nearly 24 hours a day. It is also an important nesting ground for turtles. Finish off in Sydney where you can visit the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge or take a journey out to the Blue Mountains or the famous Bondi Beach.
The Crown Princess cruise liner has nearly 900 balconies and a three-story Atrium so there is plenty of room to watch world-class entertainment and have fine dining experiences. There are 19 decks and 1547 guest cabins with multiple accommodation options. Every hour, the chefs aboard the Crown Princess prepare food from scratch. There are various dining options including the Crab Shack, International Café, Sabatini’s Italian Trattoria, and The Chef’s Table experience where you can indulge in an extravagant multi-course dinner created and hosted by the ship’s executive chef. And of course, there are activities and entertainment including the Discovery at Sea Program, freshwater pools and hot tubs, sports courts, Lotus Spa and Fitness Center, and plenty of live music and theatre.
The Diamond Princess cruise liner is a luxury destination in itself, with freshly prepared sashimi offered by Kai Sushi, street performers in the dazzling Atrium, production shows in the state-of-the-art theatre, and the Izumi Japanese Bath, the largest of its kind at sea. Dining options include Horizon Court, Prego Pizzeria, Trident Grill, Ultimate Balcony Dining, and Chef’s Table Experience among many others. Diamond Princess also has Discovery at Sea Programs, an Art Gallery, freshwater pools and hot tubs, sports courts, and an internet café onboard to name a few.
