Trip of a Lifetime to NZ by jarmbrus

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Majestic Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Great itinerary, beautiful ship, friendly staff, and good food made for an enjoyable trip. Would have appreciated being able to enjoy more of the local wines as advertised on the menu as by the glass service was disappointing.

A great way to see New Zealand! by RonBertin

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Majestic Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

A cruise is a wonderful way to visit New Zealand and part of Australia. The majestic is a wonderful ship and probably meets the expectations of most passengers. Those booking this for a cruise should expect an older crowd.

Good Cruise by jmsikora

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Noordam / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Pretty good cruise overall. See comment above regarding deck chair noise in 8147 from the Lido deck. Service seemed a bit less than we've encountered on other Holland America cruises. Still very good but somewhat inconsistent (except the Pinnacle Room and Bar).

Amazing trip to the land down under by bratak

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Majestic Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

The ship is only two years old so it's in great shape. On demand movies and TV shows was nice. The only live TV was new channels and 2 sports channels. It would have been nice to have at least the three major US networks on there. The one thing I wish Princess would consider is to have the port times later on the Australia/New Zealand cruises. The majority of the animals in these two countries are noctornal, so if you're on a day excursion, all you get to do is see an animal sleep. (Not too exciting).

A very happy ship by ODJ

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Noordam / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

This was our first cruise with Holland. We had the good fortune of sailing with a superior captain who knew how to motivate his staff. All crew encounters were pleasant. Your folks actually seemed happy to be aboard. The cigar room was a gem!!!!!!!!!!

Great cruise by lisarossello

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Azamara Quest / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

The service great, food good, boat tours where not what they offer. Milford Sound tour was suppose to take us on the gondola to see Queenstown and the Kiwi and they did not do that.

Some positives and negatives with several days of rough seas by 4Drifters

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Queen Victoria / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

We chose this cruise because we liked the places it was going to go, some of us wanted more seatime to take advantage of all the activities offered onboard, we were able to use FF miles for our flights and the timing though not perfect for us was doable. Our concerns were that Cunard might be more formal than we wanted to be on vacation and I have to admit it was. Dressing for dinner and the shows every night required packing a lot of clothes. I'm not sure I would choose Cunard again.

Love Cruising with the Aussies as an American. Great cruise, Great Boat, Great crew and Great value. by sawvet

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Ovation of the Seas / Destination: South Pacific

From an experienced cruiser this cruise was surprisingly good. Quality of the staff was excellent and cruising with the Australians was a blast. Much more friendly and engaging than the American's that we normally cruise with.
