Highlights of this cruise sector:

Auckland
In a nation where stunning scenery is taken for granted, this water wonderland sparkles like a freshly polished jewel. Over 48 extinct volcanoes cloaked in wild mountainous scenery encircle the "City of Sails". An undulating succession of bays and inlets stretch along its endless shores. Even the downtown area with its expansive, farm-like parks exudes a sense of spacious beauty.

Christchurch
Just across the hill from Lyttelton, Christchurch is South Island's main international gateway, vibrant and sophisticated, with year-round festivals, exciting art galleries and great shopping. With its miles of well-tended parks, tea shops, and a magnificent Gothic cathedral, the "Garden City" is resplendent with British style and charm. Willows weep along the gentle Avon River, while bright-coloured English gardens adorn prim and proper Victorian homes. Cricket fields, church spires and streets called Durham, Gloucester and Hereford further serve to confirm the illusion of a slice of Merry Olde England transported Down Under.

Papeete
Discover Papeete, a bustling place by South Pacific standards. With its white sands and aquamarine lagoons, this Polynesian Eden holds much the same allure today that it had in the past. Visit the museum of one of Tahiti's most famous expatriates, painter Paul Gauguin.

San Juan del Sur
From here on the Pacific shore, head inland to discover colonial Granada. Set within a landscape of jungle and volcanoes beside Lake Nicaragua, the city is a photographer's dream of pastel houses, a yellow cathedral topped with dusky pink domes and the San Francisco Convent with its delightful sky blue façade.

New York
See the bright lights of the Big Apple, international mecca and melting pot, with expensive brownstones, colourful neighbourhoods like Greenwich Village and the Upper West Side and the legendary Central Park. Explore some of the world's great museums. Some come just for the shopping: there's Bloomingdale's on Lex, Tiffany's on Fifth, Barneys and the unique boutiques along Madison. Or head downtown and explore the trendy shops of SoHo. Walk across iconic Brooklyn Bridge, this engineering milestone ranks among the world's greatest suspension bridges.
