Featured Voyage
Eleven nights round trip from Sydney, crossing the Tasman to enter New Zealand at the fiords and working north to Auckland. Fiordland first, when the scale of it still surprises you.
All Included from $3,527 per person · veranda from $4,515 · solo from $5,975
Worth Knowing First
Celebrity Edge carries around 3,260 guests. This is a mass-market ship, not the small-ship luxury we usually place. We include it because no other line we work with reaches these islands, and because a big ship genuinely suits some travellers.
A private suite enclave within the ship, with its own restaurant, lounge, sundeck and butler service. If you want the ship without the crowd, this is where we would put you. Sky Suites from $8,128 per person.
The Journey
The harbour, the bridge and the Opera House, and the run out past the heads as the voyage begins.
Milford, Doubtful and Dusky in succession, entered from the sea as the ship threads between cliffs.

Victorian Scotland at the foot of the South Island, with albatross and penguins on the Otago Peninsula.
The Canterbury Plains, and the alps standing behind the city.
The Bay of Plenty and the geothermal country inland at Rotorua.
The City of Sails on its double harbour, and the volcanic cones across the isthmus.

The Fare
One fare, most of it in. Here is exactly where the line sits.
We quote Celebrity one way only: the All Included fare. Classic drinks, wi-fi and all gratuities are in, alongside your stateroom, all main dining, room service, entertainment, the pools and port taxes. No drinks packages to bolt on later, no tip envelope maths.
Speciality restaurants, premium drinks, spa and shore excursions remain a la carte, and air from the United States is the largest single cost on this trip. We price the whole journey, air included, before you commit.
Your Ship
A large, modern ship with a genuine suite enclave inside it. Know which of those two things you are buying.
Edge is the ship that introduced the cantilevered Magic Carpet and the Infinite Veranda, where the whole window drops to turn the cabin into an open balcony. The Retreat is the part we would steer you to: a separate suite complex with Luminae restaurant, a private lounge and its own sundeck, effectively a small ship living inside a large one.

Every stateroom fare above is Celebrity's All Included fare, with classic drinks, wi-fi and gratuities already in, including taxes and fees, pulled from our booking engine for the 2 January 2027 departure. Solo is the total for one guest; per person is based on double occupancy. Celebrity prices the Retreat suites as a suite fare with beverages and wi-fi arranged at booking, so those six rows show the suite fare and we confirm the fully inclusive figure when we hold your suite. Fares move with demand.
