From Fiji, the ship makes its way to the shores of the Solomon Islands, Papa New Guinea, and Australia for excursions such as scuba diving, snorkeling trips, parasailing, scenic flights, and rain-forest treks. After a few stops in Australia, Indonesia, and Singapore you'll make your way to the lush landscapes of Galle and Colombo in Sri Lanka and Cochin and Mormugao (Goa) in India before setting sail for Oman, and Egypt.
That takes travelers to May 31, 2021, the best time to visit Europe. The European leg of the journey includes Athens, Seville, London, Italy, and the UK's Isles of Scilly, ending this leg in Lisbon.
The trip ends by going from Lisbon to Reykjavik, and finally, to its final stop in Tromsø, Norway on July 16, 2021.
There will be featured speakers including astronomers, filmmakers, and archeologists to enhance the off-ship experiences and unique events throughout, such as a private outdoor dinner complete with Vikings in authentic costumes, flickering lights from oil lamps, and the smell of smoke from the campfire in Iceland's Kjarnaskógur Forest.
For those interested, fares start at $99,000 per guest for travelers who stay in the ship's Vista Suite and goes up to $404,000 for the two-bedroom Owner's Suite. All rooms come with butler service, a walk-in wardrobe, plush bathrobes, and choice of pillows.
