Not everyone enjoys the festive season at home. For people looking for an escape route from the hectic Christmas and New Year celebrations, Silversea has limited space available on the 21 December Silver Shadow sailing from Sydney to Auckland.
Relax for the 15 day cruise in an ocean view suite, with personal butler service, complimentary Champagne, wines and drinks throughout the ship, sparkling entertainment, fine dining in a choice of restaurants, plenty of interesting ports of call and sea days for pampering in the spa. The staff on Silver Shadow will ensure all the usual trimmings are there for Christmas, Boxing Day and New Year’s Eve, but you don’t have to organise anything. The Chefs will cook the turkey and the goose. The wine waiters will select and serve the complimentary wines. There will be Christmas carols if you want them or jazz if you prefer.
New Year’s Eve will be celebrated with dinner, dancing and entertainment sailing between Dunedin and Picton and the party can go on into the wee small hours if you wish.
The 15 day Silver Shadow festive cruise sails from Sydney on the evening of 21 December, visiting Melbourne, Hobart, Milford Sound, Stewart Island, Dunedin, Picton, Napier and Tauranga, arriving in Auckland on 5 January.
Fares start from AU$9,843 per person, double occupancy in a Vista Suite and AU$12,163 in a Veranda Suite and include a $500 Passport to Luxury to spend on whatever you wish. Single fares are priced from AU$14,502 per person.
