“Happy New Year!” – this wish will come true for you in the most wonderful way. With the EUROPA 2, you will set off on a cruise full of unforgettable experiences from Lautoka, Fiji.
Start your cruise in Lautoka, the third largest city in Fiji. Experience Dravuni, a small island with volcanic origins and tropical vegetation, as your first dream destination. Enjoy plenty of time for yourself on the following four days at sea and unwind while the EUROPA 2 sets course for the fifth continent. The urban flair of Australia is what makes this voyage so unique, whether in Townsville on the coast, in Airlie Beach, where the full splendour of the reef is revealed to you on a flight in a small aircraft*, or in relaxed Cairns, the gateway to the tropical north. Discover the rainforest from different perspectives: First take a scenic train* on one of Australia's most picturesque routes, and then soar above the treetops of Barron Gorge National Park on a cable car*. To round off the trip, you will hardly believe your eyes when you drive from Darwin to the leaping crocodiles* or fly over the impressive landscape to Kakadu National Park*. After two relaxing days at sea on board, the EUROPA 2 will bid you farewell in Benoa on Bali.
* The pre- and post-cruise programmes and shore activities are not included in the cruise price and are in the planning stage. Subject to change.

Dravuni Island is a remote island paradise in the Fiji Islands. Here you can expect unspoilt beaches, crystal-clear waters and the fascinating culture of the indigenous people.

Darwin has a fascinating history, ranging from settlement by Indigenous peoples to destruction during the Second World War. The city was originally inhabited by the Larrakia Aboriginal people and was an important trading centre for pearl divers. During the Second World War, Darwin was heavily bombed and severely damaged. Nowadays, Darwin has developed into a modern and vibrant city. It is the capital of the Northern Territory and an important port for trade with Asia. Darwin is also known for its unique wildlife and natural beauty. The surrounding area offers spectacular national parks, waterfalls and breathtaking sunsets. Darwin is a popular destination for adventurous travellers who want to experience the unique culture and nature of Australia’s top end.
