Scenic Eclipse II: A New Era of Luxury Cruising in New Zealand

In November 2024, the Scenic Eclipse II will embark on its inaugural New Zealand voyages, offering guests an unrivalled luxury experience in the Land of the Long White Cloud. The Discovery Yacht is setting a new benchmark for exploration and ultra-luxury cruising in the region, immersing guests in the ancient natural and cultural wonders of New Zealand.

Once-in-a-Lifetime Journeys

Exciting departures in 2024 and 2025 promise once-in-a-lifetime journeys and a suite of extraordinary experiences for travellers. Among the cruises to consider is the New Zealand in Depth 18-day voyage from south to north, departing on 18 November 2024. This adventure takes guests to bustling cities, historic ports, World Heritage-listed wonders, and remote islands.

Tailored Itineraries

For those who prefer a shorter journey, Scenic Eclipse II offers the option to split the journey. Travellers can choose the 11-day Taste of New Zealand: Queenstown to Wellington or an 8-day itinerary, Taste of New Zealand: Wellington to Auckland via Norfolk Island and the Bay of Islands.

Island-Hopping Adventure

For those who love island culture, Scenic’s Treasures of the Pacific: The Yasawas to New Zealand offers a stunning island-hopping adventure across the South Pacific. Sailing from the paradise islands of Fiji, Scenic Eclipse II calls in at glamorous holiday spots and remote islands in Vanuatu, New Caledonia and Norfolk Island en route to New Zealand’s north, where it takes in the breathtaking beauty of the Bay of Islands, Waiheke Island and Auckland.

Unprecedented Level of Ultra-Luxury

With only up to 228 guests on board and 114 luxurious suites, all with private verandahs and butler service, Scenic Eclipse II offers an unprecedented ultra-luxury level on these New Zealand journeys.
