Dining

In contrast to the wilds of Antarctica or rugged adventures in the Kimberley, the onboard cuisine is distinctly civilised. Award winning Sydney chef Serge Dansereau of 'The Bathers' Pavilion' fame has created signature menus inspired by local culinary traditions featuring produce and flavours reflecting the regions you are visiting. Each dish has been designed to complement our other alternatives allowing you to sample from each menu at your whim.

Orion's adventurous spirit is also reflected in our selection of Australian, New Zealand and European wines: vintages from exceptional lesser-known wineries complement our range of familiar labels.

Dining at any time is an unhurried experience with a single sitting free of fixed table assignments. Dine with friends you made on yesterday's exploration ashore or the couple you were chatting to on deck earlier...it is up to you. Dinner is always served in the Constellation Restaurant, or if the mood takes you, dine al fresco under the stars.

During the day if the scenery is too spectacular to simply let pass by, take a seat for a buffet breakfast or lunch at our Outdoor Café.

Kids Programs

Childrens Policy

Orion Expedition Cruises, due to the unique nature of the expedition style of travel, allows a limited number of children under the age of 2 (as at date of departure).

On selected sailings during school holidays we will include a programme of activities for children aged 10 years and over. Children aged less than 10 years may be able to participate by exception. The programme will be at no extra cost.

Tipping

Gratuities are the traditional way to say "thank you" for exceptional service. Tipping is not required onboard Orion however should you wish to recognize outstanding service from an individual staff member you are welcome to do so at your discretion.

Please note, while cruise details and inclusions are accurate at time of loading they are subject to change due to changes in cruise line practices and policies. Please check details and inclusions at time of booking.
