Mit nicko cruises Hochseekreuzfahrt auf die Cookinseln

Paradise island worlds of Oceania

17 days | Tahiti • Bora Bora • Moorea • Cook Islands • Tonga • Fiji • New Zealand • Auckland

Tahiti is an ideal starting point for a breathtaking cruise through the South Seas. You will visit Bora Bora, which you will recognize from afar by its volcano, and also disembark on Moorea. On the Magic Mountain, you will have a panoramic view from above that will take your breath away. But even from below - while snorkeling in the crystal-clear water - there are always fabulous views. Incidentally, this applies to all destinations on this dream cruise! After getting to know the fabulous flora and species-rich fauna of French Polynesia, you set course for the Cook Islands. You will pass the international date line on your way to the Kingdom of Tonga and set course for Fiji. Almost 2,000 kilometers as the crow flies separate them from the Bay of Islands in New Zealand. On board the VASCO DA GAMA, they will seem like a stone's throw away!
