Itinerary
Begin your holiday with a 2-night luxurious stay in Sydney and get to know the city at your own pace. See landmarks like the Opera House, or plan a day trip to beautiful Bondi Beach. There’s also plenty of hip harbour bars, where you can chill in the sunshine. You'll then board Celebrity Edge for your 12-night cruise, calling at:

  • Milford, Doubtful and Dusky Sound...  this is "the best scenic cruising in the world", says The Daily Telegraph, and you'll sail between breathtaking mountains that are up to a kilometre high. Rudyard Kipling referred to Milford Sound peak as the eighth wonder of the world.
  • Dunedin... this quirky South Island city is known as the Edinburgh of the south. It features a strong sense of Scottish heritage that stretches all the way to haggis, tartan, and bagpipes.
  • Christchurch... see the city on heritage trams and go punting on the Avon River. A lot of the buildings and ruined walls in downtown are decorated with beautiful street art and the coffee is good here.
  • Tauranga... this city is the gateway to the Bay of Plenty. A sacred Maori mountain towers over the city, and makes a beautiful lookout point.
  • Auckland... is the largest city in New Zealand.  As it's situated between two harbours, you'll get sea views at every turn. We recommend a day trip to Waiheke Island's wineries as well.
  • Bay Of Islands... stunning beaches, sunsets, and dolphin frolics surround this area of idyllic islands, golden sand, lush green valleys, and abundant wildlife.
  • Sydney… it's back to this city to dock, transfer to the airport and catch your flight home.

Ship details
Celebrity Edge is one of Celebrity Cruises' newer and most advanced Edge-class ships. Cruise Critic calls it "one of the most unusual and appealing cruise ships we've seen in a decade", and adds that "those who appreciate stylish, contemporary design will fall in love".

The ship is designed to feel just like a 5-star hotel, and is full of lush greenery, complete with an immersive rooftop garden and metallic trees for performers to perch in. It was also the first ship to debut the Magic Carpet—a moveable deck with a bar, where you can get out onto tenders or just relax with great views.

There are 15 dining venues overall, and four are included in the base cruise fare. Drinks are included across the ship, including the iconic Eden bar, full of live plants. The theatre is "one of the most high-tech spaces you'll find at sea" (Cruise Critic).

Both are included.
