18 nights. World tour 2026

Day 1

auckland, new zealand

Departure: 19:00

Auckland is the biggest metropolitan area in both Polynesia and New Zealand and a lively city with multicultural influence. It's situated between two natural harbours, the Waitemata Harbour and the Manukau Harbour and it's often referred to as the City of Sails, as it has the highest number of boats per head of population in the world. In the city centre, there's a good few galleries, museums, theatres, trendy bars, and top class restaurants which offer a wide range of food. The Skytower dominates the city’s skyline and offers a cracking view of the city. Queen Street, the commercial hub area, starts at Waitemata Harbour and runs for nearly three kilometres in a straight line. From the city centre you can walk to the Auckland Domain and the Museum, Albert Park, Parnell, a lovely historic area, and up to Newmarket with its many shops. From there it's not far to Mt. Eden and its impressive crater, and to Cornwall Park which is at the foot of the famous One Tree Hill. One Tree Hill, an extinct volcano cone and ancient Maori settlement offers great panoramic views of this sprawling city. Cosmopolitan and charming, Auckland is easy to get to, beautiful, and with plenty to do. It's definitely New Zealand's most lively city.

Day 5-6

sydney, australia

Arrival: 10:30 - Departure: 18:00

Sydney is the state capital of New South Wales and the most populous city in Australia. Bordered by the Pacific Ocean and the Hawkesbury River, Sydney is considered one of the world's most beautiful and liveable cities in the world. It has an iconic skyline, some wonderful museums, delicious restaurants, a lively atmosphere and tons of natural beauty. As with any large city there are many attractions, but the most important are the Sydney Opera House, set on the Sydney harbour, it is one of the world's most recognised landmarks, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Sydney's main catholic cathedral, St Mary's Cathedral, the Royal Botanic Gardens and a vast array of beautiful beaches. Sydney's most famous beach, Bondi Beach has a lively promenade and it is a famous spot amongst surfers. Just outside of Sydney, we have the Blue Mountains, an unspoiled mountain range filled with Eucalyptus trees. Sydney is a city of immense vitality and it is an amazing and fascinating destination. There is something for every visitor, history, art, culture, nature, fashion, gastronomy, architecture and above all, Sydney is a city that knows how to have fun.

Komodo is one of the 17,508 islands that make up the Republic of Indonesia. The island is particularly notable as the habitat of the Komodo dragon, the largest lizard on Earth, which is named after the island. Komodo Island has a surface area of 390 square kilometres and a human population of over two thousand. The people of the island are descendants of former convicts who were exiled to the island and who have mixed with Bugis from Sulawesi. The people are primarily followers of Islam but there are also Christian and Hindu congregations. Komodo is part of the Lesser Sunda chain of islands and forms part of the Komodo National Park. In addition, the island is a popular destination for diving. Administratively, it is part of the East Nusa Tenggara province.

Day 18

benoa - bali - indonesia

Arrival: 11:30 - Departure: 00:00

The southern part of Bali, although generally chaotic and overly touristy, boasts the best beaches on the island and several interesting sightseeing tours, so if you travel to this destination, I recommend you spend at least three full days there. If Bali is too crowded, the area of Kuta and its surroundings takes the biscuit: it was here where the first travellers arrived in search of surf and they also found a paradise to export. But despite the noise and the fact that Balinese culture is not as prevalent as in other areas, Kuta and its surroundings can also be enjoyed. Legian street is lovely, ideal for buying souvenirs or a dress while haggling with the locals; The beach is perfect for surfing and the best place to watch it, as it's full of surfers at all hours!; And the sunset is an event that you can't miss. The locals flock to the beach in droves, many of whom want to take photos with you, play football or simply swim; And spontaneous bars are set up with fresh beers and crates as local bars. There are beautiful sunsets that are harmless. Of course, the local lifestyle is shorter than in other parts of the island, or at least not so integrated, so don't expect to find a nice market or a temple on every corner.
