NSWP Posted December 1, 2018 #26 Share Posted December 1, 2018 (edited) Did the circumnavigation on Sun Princess in 2008, when she first arrived from USA. Nice and new then, a lot cheaper than the Coral one on here, have to win Lotto or Lottery to do that one. Edited December 1, 2018 by NSWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swissmiss6253 Posted December 1, 2018 #28 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Looks amazing but far too hot at that time of year (and too expensive for me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted December 1, 2018 #29 Share Posted December 1, 2018 The time of year is not the best but still, you are at sea, so not really to much of an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerfectlyPerth Posted December 1, 2018 #30 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Whole itinerary looks great to me, lining up with historical dates and some great smaller locations etc. But ugh I hate the heat and so much of it would be real nasty tropic temps. Ok when on board, but shore excursions would be unconfirmed for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted December 2, 2018 #33 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Advertised in the Sunday Telegraph's Escape magazine today. Leaves on 7 November and heads west first so wouldn't be too bad until getting up towards Queensland again mid December with Uluru for Xmas out of Cairns.

LOL personally I avoid places where one cannot escape 10,000 cruising Americans on tiny islands! I don't do the tropics etc. I prefer Antarctica and similar. The only reason I suffer Pacific cruises lately is because of the entertainment on board the Bravo cruises. But I love Aus history so the circumnavigation on a small vessel does still interest me - I just have to make myself think beyond the heat !!

You don’t have to worry about 10,000 Americans if you travel on a small ship that goes to the islands where the big ships don’t go.

That would be painful and also possibly embarrassing, especially trying to explain the lumps in the pants at security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
