DenvCruiser Posted March 16, 2013 #9 Share Posted March 16, 2013 My buddy Stephen from Vancouver, BC and I are on this and the next cruise. We got back from Australia and the Solstice two weeks ago after visiting New Zealand and Australia. Auckland and Sydney are great ports, and the Solstice docks right in the middle of all the action. This should be a great cruise, which is why it is sold-out. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we hit Sydney, we are boarding the Radiance the next day for a btb around Australia & NZ. Not sure what to do in certain ports, thanks, ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenvCruiser Posted March 17, 2013 #11 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Cirman52, We should be docked right across from the Opera House, with the ferries between the ship and opera house. You can take a tour of the opera house, or hop on a ferry and visit the zoo or the beach town or Manly. The great botanical gardens is beside the opera house and definitely within walking distance. The Rocks area of Sydney is right outside the ship. The bridge is close. You have way many more options than time permits. I will bring along some brochures I picked up in Auckland and Sydney to show you what is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlo4934 Posted March 17, 2013 Author #12 Share Posted March 17, 2013 DenvCruiser, Is there a hotel in Sydney you can recommend that is near all the action and sights? My partner and I are staying a couple days in Sydney before flying home. Thanks! Rick and Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenvCruiser Posted March 18, 2013 #13 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Rio4934, The Hyatt is in an incredible location, with prices to match. I would choose one close to Circular Quay, since a lot of the transportation is located around there. We were on the Solstice for the two days we were in Sydney and didn't need a hotel.

omeinv Posted May 11, 2013 #18 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Rito and I just took the Solstice from Sydney to Honolulu. That cruise didn't go to New Zealand like ours will (New Caledonia instead). But we had Bora Bora, Moorea and Tahiti, as well as Lahaina of course. As others have mentioned, the ship docks at the Overseas Passenger Terminal (OPT) in Sydney. I would venture to guess that this makes the ship the closest accomodations to the Sydney Opera House when it's there. If you look at Google maps, and look for the OPT, you'll get an idea. The NSW public transport sells passes called "my multi" which can be purchased for various lengths of time. they cover the trains, light rail, buses and the ferries. It's a bargain, because the ferris are like tourist excursions, everywhere you go there are sights to see. We are SCUBA divers, and will be diving again French Polynesia. If anyone else is, I've got the info for the dive shop there. You can email me at: motorlessons@hotmail.com Harris Denver, CO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
