Amazing cruise round New Zealand

Had a wonderful time exploring New Zealand north and south islands. Visited a Maori living village and learned about their culture. The country is so varied and the people very friendly. Cruising Fiordland was much like Norway

Magnificent Ship

We arrived in Athens for a 7 night cruise, on arrival at the ship it look so impressive. We have sailed with Princess on other occasions, but this ship was a monster, with 30 different places to drink or eat. It was very clean and the staff always hapoy and willing to assist.7 nights does not give you enough time to actually use all the facilities, with over 4000 guests, it never felt over crowded. Thanks to all the crew for a fabulous cruise.

Brilliant

This was our very first cruise, and the Sun Princess was a wonderful ship to be on. Our room steward could not do more to help us with little requests and advice. The food in the eatery was great, and even in the main dining room we never struggled to get a table even without pre-booking. Definitely recommend, the staff could not do enough for us
