Hug the coastline from Cairns to Tasmania and back to Melbourne on this Antipodean adventure. This is a magical part of Oz - a magnet for all those who like knots of deep green rainforest and ankle-deep shelves of turquoise sea water, hip cities and penguins on parade. On this cruise, PONANT invites you to discover New Zealand, a unique destination with a multitude of natural treasures.
Departing from Dunedin, also called the Edinburgh of New Zealand, Le Laperouse will cruise to the heart of Fiordland National Park, which is an integral part of Te Wahipounamu, a UNESCO World Heritage area with landscapes shaped by successive glaciations. You will discover Dusky Sound, Doubtful Sound and the well-known Milford Sound - three fiords bordered by majestic cliffs.

Spoke to Peter, (the owner) recently about obtaining his help to organise visas and flights on a relatively urgent basis for an overseas trip ,,, Peter was agreeable to this in our first conversation and I left it with him, however after about two weeks nothing had occurred and my emails not responded to, called in to find out what was going on and Peter just abandoned the matter, of course then meaning I have to start again and potentially lose all this time spent already in waiting ... not good service if a business says it will do one thing then waits a period to advise it will not do this thing

Whether domestic or international, you really must book your flights, tours, hotels, etc with Evelina Siegrist-Tucci at Cairns Central Travel. She's undoubtedly the best travel agent in the business. She makes everyone's bookings absolutely seamless. If a company cancels or changes any flight or other booking, Evelina is on to it immediately, fixes everything to ensure the best result possible, and keeps the travellers informed of the situation. She's very friendly and happy to offer clever solutions to all your travel needs. Be sure to seek her advice before you take a trip.

Billie Williams arranges our flights for my family and I from the UK to Brisbane, which in a world pandemic is no easy task, She was very efficient and prompt with correspondence, we had all documentation needed to enter the different countries we were transiting through, well before the trip so everything was organised and made for a lot less stress in the airports. Would strongly recommend Cairns Central Travel and Billie in particular

The staff is very knowledgeable and always finds the best fares/routes in record time! I've tried booking online and wasted hours, then gone in to see Billy or Peter at Cairns Central Travel and walked out with exactly what I wanted at a better fare than I could find myself. Now I don't even bother trying to do my own bookings, I just call or email or head in to Cairns Central Travel and save myself time and money. Good central location on the upper floor of the Centre near the food court.

Peter and his experienced team helped my family come back home from Africa in the most difficult times of Border closures, peck Covid November 2020. Without his skills in booking safe reliable flights around the world my family could still be trapped overseas. We have been using Cairns Central Travel for many years now and always get reliable advise and a great deal. Thanks for your help.

I went in to ask for some advice on a online booking. Yes i knew they couldn't change anything. The lady me told me there was very little chance of changing my flight and there was absolutely no chance of getting accommodation in the Cape York area.
Heads up , I was able to change my flight and I have accommodation on Thursday Island, even better.
There is a lot of accommodation available.

Fantastic friendly service, booked a 10 day trip to Japan on short notice but it was no trouble. 10/10 recommendations on where to go, and helped me to choose where would be best for my interests while still keeping within my budget. I'll definitely be booking my next trip through them! Special thanks to Peter and Tomoko who went above and beyond to make this trip go so smoothly, couldn't of had a better time.
