Cruise Description
10 Night Cruise sailing from Sydney roundtrip aboard Carnival Legend.
Ready for a vacation of legendary proportions? Set sail on a floating resort so spectacular she needed a two-level promenade for all of her fabulous shops, lounges and nightclubs. And, with most of her staterooms featuring ocean views and the majority of those with private balconies, there should be no problem getting the perfect accommodations for your cruise. With her delicious dining — including a reservations-only supper club, wide variety of onboard activities and pampering service, this “Fun Ship” has already become a legend in her own time.
Highlights of this cruise:
Port Vila
It may be oceans away, but the welcome will make you feel right at home. From the moment you arrive you’re greeted with a big ol’ smile. And to make you feel extra special, the locals set up their markets at the port just for you. So get your pirate persona out and hunt for some treasures me hearties.
And the cheer continues as you venture further into the city. Even though Port Vila is Vanuatu’s busiest harbour, the people are famed for their ‘good mornings!’ And of course there’s the hearty traditional food to warm your belly. You’ll even find some (not so traditional) Aussie meat pies.
Yep, the people of Port Vila go to great lengths to make you feel right at home. It kinda feels like a big Vanuatu group hug.
Mystery Island
Look at that white powdery sand. Kinda makes you want to make a sand angel, doesn’t it? Go ahead, there’s plenty of room. The whole island is yours for the day. That’s right, it’s uninhabited and the only people who visit are cruise passengers. So it’s all yours. And it’s the perfect size to explore the whole thing.
Because the island is just 200m wide and barely a kilometre long, you can take your time wandering around. Start with the stalls of trinkets set up by locals from neighbouring islands – hello souvenirs. Then who’s up for some hair braiding? Talk about the perfect island hairdo. Oh, and there’s the airstrip built by US soldiers during WWII. Bet you didn’t know it had one of those.
Yep, Mystery Island is full of surprises and unexpected twists. Guess that’s why they call it Mystery Island.
Noumea
It won’t take long to find your French side in this city. See for yourself, mon ami. It’s got that Parisienne style, sophistication and joie de vivre, with a little sun, sand and smiles thrown in too. And the French cheer is totally infectious. Trust me, you’ll be shouting bonjour! to strangers before you know it.
Aside from ordering delicious croissants (in perfect French of course), there’s plenty of other great stuff to keep you busy. All you gotta do is choose which is more your style. Are you more in the mood for a day at the beach? Or would you rather the hustle and bustle of the city? Perhaps a bit of both?
Whatever you choose, this capital city is sure to please everyone’s tastes. Especially if your tastes happen to have a craving for something French.
Lifou Isle
Beautiful, breathtaking, adventure packed, stunning, picturesque. and that’s just for starters. You’d better hold onto your straw hats ’cause there’s more to Lifou Isle than meets the eye. So while it may be tempting to just chill on the sand all day, we recommend you take the time to explore, explore, explore.
The weather is super sunny all year round so you should totally hit the water and hang with the friendly fishies. Especially because Lifou Isle has the brightest marine life around. And the amazing cliffs that line the north coast of the island are well worth a look too. Beaches on one side and cliffs on the other? Yep. Pretty awesome, huh?
Lifou Isle certainly has a few tricks up its sleeve so prepare to be spellbound by this little island of surprises.
