Highlights of this cruise sector:
Los Angeles
Welcome to the gateway to fame and fortune, with its endless beaches and non-stop excitement. There are wonderful restaurants, exceptional museums, fabulous stores, dazzling nightlife, unlimited recreation and sporting attractions, and a rich multiculturalism that adds international allure.
Honolulu
Honolulu's appeal ranges from its magnificent beaches, countless well-stocked shops, tempting restaurants, and multitude of historic, cultural and scenic attractions. Combine the languid allure of the tropics, big city sophistication and the spirit of Aloha, and you've discovered Oahu. Known as "The Gathering Place", this Pacific crossroads is a tapestry of cultural diversity from Polynesian sensuality and Oriental mystique to American pragmatism. And it all blends together in one of the most harmonious gatherings in the world.
Pago Pago
Make a dramatic South Seas entrance into this gorgeous natural harbour embraced by jungle-clad peaks, before exploring the evocative white clapboard capital. Despite the inroads of Western ways, the locals still cling to fa'a Samoa, their ancient way of life. And physically, this beautiful island is all South Pacific. Tutuila competes with the splendour of Moorea and Bora Bora. In the east, rugged mountains give way to a high broken plateau pitted with lush green craters of extinct volcanoes.
Auckland
In a nation where stunning scenery is taken for granted, this water wonderland sparkles like a freshly polished jewel. Over 48 extinct volcanoes cloaked in wild mountainous scenery encircle the "City of Sails". An undulating succession of bays and inlets stretch along its endless shores. Even the downtown area with its expansive, farm-like parks exudes a sense of spacious beauty.
