All Inclusive Cruises Right On Your Doorstep

Luxury is on your doorstep

Almost any kind of cruise could be called luxurious - after all, with no responsibilities to deal with besides enjoying yourself, life aboard a cruise ship is pretty indulgent. For a real taste of the high life though, you’ll want to try out a true luxury cruise. Unfortunately it can sometimes be a bit tricky to find these kind of sailings close to home, with many luxury cruises starting in far flung parts of the world. Never fear though! We’ve gathered together all the best luxury cruises embarking in our corner of the world right here, so you can easily pick out a luxurious experience which won’t require you to first catch a long flight.

What is a luxury cruise?

So what exactly can you expect from this kind of voyage? One of the most distinctive hallmarks of luxury cruises is their tendency to be “all-inclusive”. Simply put, this means that you’re unlikely to need to get out your wallet or cruise card for the duration of the journey because just about everything is included in your fare. Drinks are often included, along with onboard events and entertainment but some cruise lines really go the extra mile, including things like specialty dining, onshore hotels and even shore excursions. This takes even more hassle out of your holiday, enabling you to breeze through your cruise experience with not a care in the world.

Luxury cruising is about more than just all-inclusive fares though. You really get treated like royalty while onboard. Some lines feature a butler service, while every luxury cruise line excels in providing guests with gourmet cuisine. Staff are more attentive and will really go the extra mile to ensure that you are satisfied. There’s also the fact that some luxury voyages sail for remote or inaccessible spots like Antarctica and the Galapagos Islands, providing adventurous experiences which other lines simply can’t thanks to smaller, more specialised ships. Speaking of smaller ships, there are a number of luxury lines which purposefully sail smaller ships and have a higher ratio of staff to guests, specifically to provide a more tailored, intimate experience.

Indulgence meets convenience

Many of the luxury cruises you’ll find below depart from Australia itself, while a few others might embark in nearby locales like New Zealand or some South Pacific islands. With no need to catch a long haul flight, not only will your well-deserved luxury holiday be way more convenient, chances are it’s also going to be a good bit cheaper. Take a look through the sailings - one of these close-to-home cruises might be just what you’ve been searching for.
