AUSTRALIA SHORT CRUISES

It is pretty hard to find a better and more affordable way to have fun than on one of our Australia Short Cruises. That's because they offer the perfect short break for people of all ages. As such, you can holiday close to home, in the company of fellow holiday makers, with no madness to contend with. Restaurants are metres away. There are no taxis or car hires to contend with. You literally unpack once and let the fun begin.

Short cruises are offered from most major Australian cities and invariable last from 2 to 6 nights in duration. Many of the major cruise lines provide these short cruise excursions, which are incredibly popular, as a holiday escape. Invariably, they cater to people of all ages: couples, extended families, first-time cruisers, groups, people celebrating birthdays or milestone anniversaries. In fact, the wonderful thing about short cruises is that everyone is there for the same reason, to have relaxation and fun.

The benefits of booking Short Cruises 

• Cruise close to home
• Unpack once
• Meals included 
• Great value drinks packages
• Entertainment
• Hassle-free fun
• Choice of dining venues
• Your accommodation is always steps away

Land-based holidays often require a lot more effort and in this day and age, they cost a lot more after you take into account driving, parking, fuel, moving bags all the time. Short cruises strip away the constant hassle of going from A to B. All the work is done for you. After all, where else can you get accommodation, all the food you can eat, free entertainment, room service daily, shopping, exclusive dining venues and total relaxation in one package? And you only have to unpack once and let the rest fall into someone else’s hands.

Of course, you do have to find an exit port, but that is generally part of the whole holiday planning process and often a fun add-on too. After all, ships frequent big capital cities, so you might as well throw in a bit more glamour into your holiday break.

Plan Ahead

The rule of the game is to plan as far into the future as you can. Yes, you can get deals all the time, but these are often the “leftovers” and not the best choices. Moreover, cruise prices are inventory loaded which means as cabins sell, they are programmed to do one thing and that is to go upwards! Some cruise lines, like Ponant, will always offer a 30% discount, as an opening price, the moment a cruise is released.

Last Minute Deals

Last Minute Cruises are immensely popular and the moment a cruise deal is listed on the market, it is like watching a fish feeding frenzy, as cabins are snapped up. Look out for some great weekend or short break escapes. There are always 2 or 3 night weekend cruise packages.
