Oceania Cruises is redefining what it means to travel the world in style. With the launch of its ambitious new Kangaroo Route aboard Oceania Vista, the renowned cruise line invites curious travellers to explore more than 80 ports across 34 countries in one seamless journey.
Departing from Sydney on 26 February 2027, this 129-day adventure showcases a dazzling mosaic of cultures, cuisines, and coastlines, all delivered with Oceania’s signature blend of refined elegance and immersive discovery.
Sail from Australia to the World’s Great Civilisations
This extraordinary Oceania Cruises itinerary spans four continents, allowing guests to follow the path of explorers, merchants, and epic storytellers.
Explore the Diverse Coasts of Asia
After departing Sydney, Oceania Vista charts a course through Asia’s most vibrant cultures. Travellers will encounter the island paradise of Indonesia before sailing on to iconic cities like Shanghai, Tokyo, and Singapore. With overnight stays in Tokyo, Mumbai, and Shanghai, guests are given time to soak up centuries-old traditions and futuristic flair, whether through sacred temples or bustling street markets.
The ship’s culinary focus enhances each experience, from local spice-laden menus inspired by India to sashimi prepared with the freshest catch from Japan’s shores. In India, the journey continues through the hypnotic landscapes of Goa and Kerala before crossing over to the Middle East’s shimmering cities.
Cruise Into the Heart of the Mediterranean
The voyage then unfolds into Europe’s sun-kissed treasures. With stops in Greece, Croatia, Sicily, France, and Spain, the Kangaroo Route delivers an intimate look at historic cities and charming villages alike. Ports like Bordeaux and Luxor give guests a deeper perspective on the civilisations that shaped the modern world, while allowing time to sample local vintages or explore ancient tombs.
Every stop is an opportunity to connect with regional heritage, whether it’s walking through Dubrovnik’s walled city or dining al fresco along the French Riviera. With Oceania’s small-group shore excursions, it’s all designed to be immersive, not overwhelming.
A Grand Finale in the United Kingdom
After nearly five months at sea, the journey culminates in London, a city that balances regal tradition with global dynamism. As a finishing touch to a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience, guests are invited to look back on the world they’ve seen, and forward to the world they’ve yet to explore.
Enjoy Elevated Life Onboard Oceania Vista
The Kangaroo Route isn’t just about the itinerary. It’s about indulging in life at sea, where the experience on board is as compelling as the destinations themselves.
Refined Comfort in Every Stateroom
With all-veranda staterooms as standard, Oceania Vista sets a new benchmark in luxury cruising. The 291-square-foot rooms offer space, privacy, and sweeping views of the world outside. A guest-to-crew ratio of two-to-three ensures that service is intuitive and deeply personalised, whether you're enjoying morning coffee on your private balcony or a curated wine pairing over dinner.
The Owner’s Suite and other premium staterooms offer even more opulence, perfect for travellers looking to elevate their long-haul cruise with designer furnishings, walk-in wardrobes, and exclusive concierge access.
A Culinary Journey of Its Own
Food is central to Oceania’s identity, and nowhere is this more celebrated than on Vista. With 11 dining venues including Jacques (French cuisine), Toscana (Italian), and Red Ginger (Asian fusion), every palate is catered for. Culinary Discovery Tours™ let guests take this experience ashore, sourcing ingredients from local markets and learning to prepare regional dishes with expert guidance.
New for this voyage is the Gérard Bertrand wine pairing experience—an elegant tasting event that unites fine wines with globally inspired menus in a sophisticated setting.
Culture, Wellness, and Connection
From art classes in The Artist Loft to wellness rituals at the Aquamar Spa + Vitality Center, there’s no shortage of enrichment onboard. Whether you’re painting the vistas you’ve passed or deepening your flexibility in a yoga session on the spa terrace, this voyage encourages personal growth alongside global exploration.
For travellers who crave meaningful travel, Vista’s shore excursions go beyond standard sightseeing. You’ll visit ancient ruins, meet local winemakers, or take cooking classes in regional homes—each tour designed with depth and storytelling in mind.
An All-Inclusive, Effortless World Cruise
At a starting price of USD $54,999 (approx. AUD $84,350) per person, the Kangaroo Route includes Oceania’s Exclusive Prestige Package. This means you can enjoy perks like Free Unlimited Wine, Beer, and Spirits or generous Shore Excursion Credit, plus Visa assistance, Free Luggage Delivery, and exclusive shoreside events. These benefits are in addition to Oceania’s already comprehensive “Your World Included™” programme, which covers gratuities, WiFi, gourmet dining, and in-stateroom service.
Take a Deeper Look into the World from Australia
This latest addition to the 2027 global cruise lineup demonstrates Oceania Cruises’ commitment to including Australian ports in its world voyages. By beginning in Sydney, the Kangaroo Route gives Aussie cruisers and international travellers alike a seamless way to start a global adventure from the Southern Hemisphere.
It’s also a testament to how far the global cruise experience has come—no longer just about ticking off destinations, but about connecting with cultures, savouring cuisines, and soaking in landscapes with a sense of purpose and awe.
If you're feeling inspired by the idea of circling the globe with ease, elegance, and cultural depth, you're not alone. This is a rare opportunity to combine extended travel with the comforts of an all-veranda luxury ship, personalised service, and curated experiences.
