Seabourn has announced that the newest addition to its small ship fleet, Seabourn Encore, will offer an encore Australian season in 2017-18.
After spending her first summer cruising local waters in early 2017, the 600-guest ship will return for an encore season, offering five 16-day voyages in the region between December 2017 and February 2018.
Prices start from $14,499* per person double occupancy for a 16-day voyage from Sydney to Auckland on December 4, 2017, or January 21, 2018, and visiting New Zealand ports including Tauranga and Wellington, as well as Philip Island and Melbourne in Victoria.
At the end of her three-month stint down under, Seabourn Encore will depart Sydney on February 22, 2018, on an 18-day voyage along the Queensland coast en route to Bali with prices starting from $14,499* per person double occupancy.
Seabourn Director of Sales Australia Tony Archbold said the return of Seabourn Encore was great news for the Australian market.
“We’re so thrilled that the world’s newest and most luxurious ship will call Australia home again in 2017-18. Seabourn Encore’s second Australian season will be twice as long as her first – a testament to the growth of the ultra-luxury cruise market in our region as well as a nod to Australians’ love of the finer things in life,” Mr Archbold said.
“Seabourn Encore’s local cruises are a highlight in an already exciting program which will see our newly expanded fleet taking even more Australian guests on a journey to discover the extraordinary worlds of Seabourn.”
On sale now, the new program offers 36 unique itineraries of seven to 152 days in length on the newest, most modern fleet in the ultra-luxury segment.
When Seabourn Encore cruises down under in early 2017, it will be the youngest and most luxurious ship to ever visit Australia.
