"One of the theaters inside the Sydney Opera House." 

"In Wellington, we took an optional excursion to Shenandoah, a sheep farm where during World War II US Marines were trained before Guadalcanal. Simon and his late father have built quite a museum including this Jeep which was presented to a neighboring farmer when the Marines shipped out. It was to thank him for the turkeys they stole from his farm because they were so tired of eating mutton. It was our favorite excursion."

Kathy and Ken Peak, who also sailed Viking's Australia and New Zealand ocean cruise, said their travels were a bit impacted by the recent cyclone causing them to miss Napier. However, they still reported having a wonderful trip!

About Imagine Going There Travel

Carol is a Viking Master Cruise Expert and Group Travel Specialist, and she loves getting people together to enjoy the intimacy and hospitality unique to small ship cruising.

Consequently, our clients benefit from the “inside information” we have as a result of the great relationships we have developed over the years. They don't have to call an 800-number hoping to get a knowledgeable professional to answer their questions, and are also on the “first-to-know” list for specials and bonuses, all while receiving the signature TLC we put into every trip.

 

Vacations are the highlight reels of the year, and each one needs to be truly memorable.
