Escape on a relaxing cruise from Sydney to Adelaide via Melbourne and Kangaroo Island on board Grand Princess. Sailing from Sydney, enjoy a whole day at sea to explore, relax and get to know Grand Princess. Bordered by the picturesque Dandenong Ranges, Melbourne sits on the Yarra River at the top of Port Phillip Bay and is our first port of call.
Consider hopping on one of the many Melbourne trams to explore other parts of the city such as St Kilda. In this idyllic beach suburb, you will find Acland Street with its great mix of mouth-watering cake shops, cafes, and boutiques. Culture vultures will love the Art Gallery of Victoria, and wine lovers will adore the Yarra Valley.
The second and final port of call is Australia’s third-largest island, Kangaroo Island. Kangaroo Island is a state treasure. With more than 500 km of stunning coastline, beautiful beaches, wildlife and native bushland, Kangaroo Island is ripe for a visit. Over a third of the island is protected across 30 national and state conservation parks connected by the roadside and creek-line corridors, making for great wildlife viewing possibilities.
Beyond the wildlife, Kangaroo Island is also renowned for its locally produced food and drink. Clifford’s Honey produce delicious honey from the purest strain of Ligurian bees. The island has several notable wineries such as Bay of Shoals, Dudley Wines and False Cape Wines, all of which produce noted Shiraz and other styles such as Cabernet Sauvignon. And if gin is your thing, Kangaroo Island is also the birthplace of Australian gin. KI Spirits produce an array of fine gins.
