Princess Cruises, the leading brand of Carnival Corporation & plc and the world’s largest cruise line, won the titles of “Asia’s Best Cruise” and “Asia’s Best Culinary Cruise” for its Majestic Princess in 2017. After concluding its Taiwan sailings, the Majestic Princess is making its first southern voyage to New Zealand and Australia, allowing guests to enjoy the luxurious and relaxing top-tier facilities of a premium cruise while also taking in the stunning scenery and historical heritage of the southern hemisphere islands.

With Sydney and Melbourne as its home ports, the Majestic Princess offers a variety of New Zealand and Australia cruise itineraries and attractions, including the “New Zealand North and South Island Tour,” which previously could only be accessed by self-drive or bus, as well as “Tasmania,” known as the hidden paradise of the southern hemisphere and accessible only by ferry or cruise ship. Also included is Wineglass Bay, one of the world’s top ten most beautiful beaches, all part of the Princess Cruises New Zealand and Australia itineraries.

Easily visit iconic movie locations, experience the unique culture of the Māori people, and explore the Fiordland National Park, a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site.

Beyond sightseeing, the Majestic Princess offers comprehensive services, including Michelin-starred chef dinner menus, the largest duty-free shopping area at sea, a complimentary ocean-view fitness center, participation in Zumba and aerobics classes, as well as various wellness options such as aromatherapy and spa treatments. All cabins are equipped with luxury mattresses recognized by travel critics (CRUISE CRITIC) as the “Best Cruise Mattress” to ensure you’re well-rested for the next adventure.

In addition to its grand and unique sightseeing experiences, the Majestic Princess provides a full range of services including gourmet dining, shopping, sports, and relaxation.

This time, Princess Cruises also offers Taiwanese guests an even more exciting “Fly Cruise” package, with the highlight being the ability to experience three types of travel — land tours, sea cruises, and flights — all in one. Starting from Taoyuan Airport, guests can enjoy a one-stop travel experience, with transfers, accommodation, meals, and must-visit attractions all included.

Tasmania is an island nicknamed the “Heart-Shaped Island” due to its heart-like appearance, with 40% of its land area consisting of national parks and World Heritage sites, making it a hidden paradise of the southern hemisphere.

Princess Cruises boasts the richest selection of global itineraries, with 150 routes ranging from short trips to 111-day around-the-world voyages, allowing you to explore different maritime worlds. Take advantage of early bird offers to enjoy free upgrades to balcony cabins or complimentary tour guide and cruise gratuities, and plan ahead for unique travel options during Double Ten Day, Christmas, New Year’s, and the Lunar New Year holidays.
