In the enchanting world of luxury travel, the experience of immersing oneself in authentic cultures, exquisite landscapes, and intricate wildlife, all while basking in five-star comfort, is an irresistible call. As the latest trend in travel sees longer voyages to more remote and exotic destinations on smaller ships skyrocket in popularity, one Australian boutique ship specialist, Cruise Traveller, takes the lead. It offers a unique, ultra-luxe, three-month cruise package – the ‘Grand Africa’ – that includes a rare circumnavigation of Africa, plus a generous offer of complimentary Business Class flights from Australia for bookings made by July 31, 2023. For travellers yearning for a grand adventure and a taste of the extraordinary, the ‘Grand Africa’ package is a golden ticket.
Launching in style on November 28, 2024, the package includes a private car transfer to the airport and a free Business Class flight to Barcelona from select Australian cities: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, or Perth. The journey continues with a complimentary night’s stay in Barcelona, culminating with a grand bon voyage dinner at a historic castle near Barcelona.
The voyage then truly begins aboard the plush and elegant Seabourn Sojourn. This 458-guest luxury ship is your home for an epic and indulgent 90-night round-trip circumnavigation of Africa, visiting 19 countries on the continent, Mediterranean ports, and exotic islands in the Indian Ocean. Your Seabourn Sojourn features sleek teak decks, upscale bars, lounges, European-style cafes, fine dining restaurants, pools, jacuzzis, a wellness centre, and a show theatre. Adding to the unadulterated indulgence, all guests enjoy complimentary beverages onboard and luxury bathroom products, including an exclusive signature scent created for Seabourn by Molten Brown London.
From Barcelona, the voyage sails east to Tunisia, Malta, the Holy Land and Egypt before traversing the Suez Canal bound for Oman, tropical Seychelles, and the wildlife kingdoms of Kenya and Tanzania. From there, the itinerary dives into Mozambique, Madagascar, and five ports in South Africa, where a grand event awaits guests in Cape Town.
As Seabourn Sojourn rounds the Cape of Good Hope, the voyage heads north up Africa’s west coast, visiting destinations rarely seen by Australians, including Namibia, Angola, Benin, Toga, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Gambia, and Senegal, as well as the Canary Islands and Cape Verde Islands. Finally, guests will explore Morocco and Algeria before ending their voyage back in Barcelona, where free Business Class flights back to Australia, and private car transfers home await.
The 91-night ‘Grand Africa’ package, available from A$58,399 per person (twin-share), includes an ocean-view suite and a bounty of exciting inclusions and features:
- Private car transfers to the airport at the start and end of the holiday.
