As the northern hemisphere settles down to enjoy Christmas in the cold, why not to gear up for a celebration in the sun? Leaving Sydney’s iconic shoreline, sail to the aptly named Eden for a spot of whale watching. Sail on to New Zealand, stopping for two days in Tasmania, for a chance to enjoy the ethereal beauty of Milford and Doubtful Sounds. Carry on your Maori adventure by travelling the coast of both islands to Auckland, where you will disembark, ready for a brand new year.
