Lovely New Zealand Cruise Kimberley and Michael, QLD, Australia, Jan 2025

Had a great time travelling with Princess, it was our first cruise and for our Honeymoon and was overall a great experience. Luckily we also had amazing weather. Given how great this cruise was we will be booking another cruise in the very near future!

First Class Service Tarek and Marianne, NSW, Australia, Jan 2025

From booking the cruise to sailing the experience was magnificent and would love to stay longer. The vessel facilities, service, food and entertainment where first class. The staff friendliness and attention is wonderful to experience.
