Imagine circumnavigating the entire planet on a sweeping three-month adventure, drifting from one bucket list destination to the next, without ever needing to worry about food, accommodation, entertainment, or even unpacking more than once.
It’s the stuff dreams are made of. But it’s easier — and in many cases more affordable — than you might think.
Until now, Australian travellers have usually had one such opportunity once per year in the form of Princess Cruises’ annual round-the-world itineraries from Sydney and Brisbane. It pays to plan ahead on these; most cabins for 2025 have already been sold, but the 2026 departures still have availability.
Sadly, for the time being, these are the last currently planned full world cruises starting and finishing in Australia, with no offerings expected in 2027. However, Aussie travellers still have some great opportunities on the horizon…
In January 2027 the Queen Victoria will set off on a 109-night trip around the world. While the departure is a little over two years away, those who get in early can secure some significant early bird savings (with the full flexibility of cancelling between now and late 2026).
The full world cruise begins and ends in England, but Aussie travellers can also some amazing shorter segments from Sydney to London, Singapore or Hong Kong — all at exclusive Starts at 60 discounts for those who call and book now on 1300 414 198.
The Sydney-London segment is particularly a exciting option for local travellers, with an epic 65-night, four-continent journey spanning North Queensland, Indonesia, the Philippines, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Mauritius, Reunion, South Africa, Namibia, Senegal, Spain and Portugal.
This sister ship to the famous Queen Elizabeth is one of just four currently operating in the Cunard fleet, offering classic 1930s-style inspired by the golden age of cruising. It offers a more traditional, worldly elegance than many other modern cruise ships, with live classical music, lavish daily afternoon tea from white-gloved waitstaff, and ballroom events straight out of a fairytale.
Travel at 60, our dedicated online travel agency especially for over-60s, has arranged some exclusive discounts off the standard Cunard fare. Whether you’re taking a full world cruise or shorter segment, our friendly Australian team will quote you a lower fare than anything you’ll get direct through the cruise line.
Those who book with Travel at 60 by this Tuesday (29 October 2024) can also hold a place for half the usual up-front deposit — which, for full peace of mind, remains fully refundable until the final balance is due just 91 days before departure.
That’s on top of the early bird discount already on offer through Cunard. Those who book before 9 Dec 2024 can save an entire 10% off the standard fare. Click here to request a quote on the full world cruise or click here for the shorter Sydney-London segment.
