Australia & New Zealand Cruise Questions

What is Fiordland scenic cruising?
The ship sails into Milford, Doubtful and Dusky Sounds without docking. It is one of the most photographed mornings of the itinerary, weather permitting.
How strict is biosecurity?
Very. New Zealand and Australia restrict fresh food, and hiking boots may be inspected or cleaned on arrival.
