SOUTH SEAS TRIFECTA
Porthole Cruise Magazine|August 2020
In a land far, far away — from Porthole HQ, at least — lies the Down Under continent of Australia, flanked on the southeast by New Zealand and the petite island paradise of Fiji to the northeast. A marathon flight to these far-flung destinations may require diligent planning, but there is nothing more rewarding than scheduling an indulgent multi-segment cruise or two (or even three).

SOUTH SEAS TRIFECTA

Orion Shines Bright

LIKE ITS CELESTIAL NAMESAKE, VIKING ORION’S stellar design elements shimmer in discreet sophistication, tastefully influenced by a sleek Scandinavian aesthetic. Viking Cruises has parlayed its well-deserved, award-winning legacy in river cruising into acclaimed ocean cruises with a fleet of six nearly identical, smaller, all-veranda ships plying the seven seas in upscale style with amenities rarely included on similar vessels.

A 15-day journey to the South Sea destinations of Australia and New Zealand begins with two days of exploring the treasures of Sydney via a complimentary city highlights tour or alternatively day-tripping to the mesmerizing Blue Mountains. Sailing out of the stunning harbor with the iconic Sydney Opera House as a backdrop, the ship journeys southward with a day spent at sea savoring the elegance of dazzling public spaces and a program of inspiring enrichment programs.

The multipurpose Star Theater serves as a venue for TED talks, seminars, and special entertainment, while Torshavn is a club-like nightspot replicating the vibe of a swinging jazz lounge with nightly musical entertainment. For those that seek solace with a good book or easy listening music, The Atrium and The Viking Living Room are ideal settings to kick back in comfort surrounded by Viking nautical touches. Explorers’ Lounge, overlooking the bow, is more reminiscent of a tastefully decorated living room than a typical ship lounge and is home to sweeping views of the ocean and the Explorers’ Dome with 3D cinematic presentations.
