An amazing cruise from Darwin to Cairns Elizabeth and Barry, QLD, Australia, Sep 2024
Our trip was perfect from the time of booking to the time of arriving home. Tracey was amazing to deal with, she answered all our queries promptly and liaised with Scenic, taking that effort away from us. We would certainly book through Tracey at Global Journeys for our next trip. We enjoyed every minute of the Scenic Eclipse 2 cruise, our room with ...read more a balcony was spacious and very comfortable, plenty of wardrobe space. Several dining options. We enjoyed the company of the other passengers, most were seasoned travellers and were happy to discuss their future travel options. The interior of the ship was kept in top quality cleanliness with hygiene a priority. Thank you Tracey for all you did to make this trip possible for us.

Wonderful boat and region but no diving and limited snorkeling Max and Tracey, QLD, Australia, Sep 2024
The Scenic Eclipse 2 is a magnificent ship and the Captain and Crew are just amazing. We highly recommend travelling with them but perhaps not for this journey. We were disappointed to find there was no diving at all and only 4 opportunies to snorkel, each for a short period of time. Given Raja Ampat is known to be a marine wonderland and both diving ...read more and snorkeling were mentioned in the itinerary when we booked, we were suprised to find neither was adequately catered for. We chose this trip because we thought it enabled us to explore the wonders above the sea (which it did magnificently) and the wonders below the sea (which it did not). We were told we had to organize our own diving (which is difficult on a discovery voyage as there is no itinerary). The Discovery team and Shore Excursion team onboard offered no assistance and we only got to dive after we went to the Captain, who gladly helped us to determine the best place and time to organize our own dive excursion.
Also, the ship only had onboard approx 45 snorkels/fins/masks for 200 people. We took our own equipment but were still lumped together with everyone else. One day we spent 2 hours waiting on the beach for a 30 min snorkel. If you are not a snorkeller or diver then this would have been a fabulous trip however for us, who like the below the water experience, we felt we did not optimize the time in Raja Ampat. Still had a great trip and enjoyed our time though.
