Relaxed Flexible Cruises

Pioneering the very first Caribbean Cruise in 1966, Norwegian has been the cruising industry leader for innovation. With the introduction of "Freestyle Cruising" guests are given more freedom and flexibility to enjoy their holiday at sea. In 2014, the Company took delivery of its most innovative ship to date, the 4.000 passenger Norwegian Getaway which is bound to spellbound guests.

Norwegian operates a small number of itineraries in Australian waters however it is it's international destinations that are favourites with passengers being named "Europe's Leading Cruise Line" for the seventh consecutive year.

To and from Australia, NCL sails out of Sydney to Melbourne and New Zealand at various times during the year. Cruises from Asia to Australia are popular with routes travelling from Hong Kong to Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Bali and down the Australian coast via Cairns, Brisbane, and onwards to Sydney.
