Wildly Beautiful Perth
Western Australia boasts some of the country’s most gorgeous landscape, in addition to exquisite wine and famous wildlife. Sandy beaches line its suburbs, most notably Cottesloe Beach, a long stretch of sugary sand on the Indian Ocean. And the serene, riverside Kings Park and Botanic Garden on Mt. Eliza offer sweeping views of the city. Our luxury travelers may delight in an adventurous excursion to the mystical Pinnacles Desert or be swept away by the beautiful Swan Valley River region, Western Australia’s oldest wine growing area, where you may enjoy local sights, food and of course world class wine.
Komodo’s Infamous Resident
Indonesia’s isolated Komodo Island is a natural tropical savanna, home to the famed pre-historic Komodo dragon. Komodo National Park is the only place on earth that they can be found in the wild. Interesting to note that the island of Komodo itself is about 60 squares miles in area with dramatic landscapes of mountains, canyons and valleys lush with rain forests, yet locals are confined to a singular settlement in Slawi Bay.
Seven Seas Mariner® is in a class of her own. Hosting only 350 suites – each with a comfortably furnished private balcony – she is exquisitely intimate, allowing for our professional crew to provide impeccable personalized service as guests circle Australia. Before this epic voyage, Seven Seas Mariner® will have undergone an extensive redesign as part of the multimillion-dollar fleet-wide refurbishment program, allowing guests to enjoy refined décor, from their suite to the lounges and restaurants. They will delight in new production shows, the reimagined menu at Compass Rose and the modern French restaurant of Chartreuse.
As soon as guests step aboard Seven Seas Mariner® they will feel the warmth and sophistication of the season. From bow to stern, she will glow with holiday lights, wreaths and even a bit of mistletoe for added romance. Elaborately decorated cookies and delicious eggnog are all part of the celebration. Revelers delight in beautifully designed Christmas trees, as well as candle-lighting services each night of Hanukkah. They will be mesmerized by extravagant gingerbread houses made by our talented bakers and pastry Chefs and dance the night away with newfound friends as our guests ring in the New Year at an exclusive shoreside event in Bali.
