Ports of Call

Sydney, Australia
First came the Aborigines, 50,000 years ago; then 759 British convicts, followed by a wave of military settlers known as the "Rum Corps." The result? Australia's premier city in a location second to none, with its own brand of devil-may-care sophistication. Make sure you explore the Rocks district where the original settlers lived, see the opera house that is one of the world's great landmarks, and climb (yes, climb) the Sydney Harbor Bridge where, like it or not, you'll throw caution to the wind!

Melbourne, Australia
Founded in 1835, Melbourne has come a long way since the days of the gold rush. Back then it underwent a transformation from remote outpost to upbeat center of commerce and culture. Even today, Melbourne evolves constantly with a reputation as the focal point for the Australian fashion industry with a burgeoning wine industry in its hinterland.

Dunedin (Port Chalmers), New Zealand
Dunedin is the Gaelic translation of "Edinburgh"—a name that underscores this city's age-old ties with Scotland. Early settlers to this part of New Zealand were almost invariably from the Scottish Isles, and to this charming city they introduced their own special blend of beauty—dark stonework, immaculate flower gardens and a wee burr in the accent that, upon close observation, is often still evident today.

Christchurch, New Zealand
"The most English city outside of England" invites you to stroll botanical gardens and picnic on the lawn-lined River Avon. For ruggedly beautiful mountain scenery, ride the TranzAlpine Express through the heart of New Zealand's Southern Alps, a wonderland of dramatic limestone outcrops, snowcapped peaks and wide river gorges. A manmade highlight: the Otira tunnel, punched through five miles of ancient, rock-solid terrain.

Tauranga, New Zealand
New Zealanders come to the Tauranga area for the beaches along the shore of Mt. Maunganui and the wines produced in the Bay of Plenty. From the fertile farms behind the town, a rich crop of kiwifruit is harvested from vines that are horticulturally superior to all others. In Rotorua, center of Maori culture, boiling mud pools and spouting geysers render onlookers speechless with horrified fascination,and the scent of sulphur permeates the air.

Auckland, New Zealand
Auckland, the City of Sails, earned this moniker long before the America's Cup came to the southern hemisphere. Cup or no cup, it's still famous for boats, beaches and barbecues. The Maori name for Auckland means Battle of 100 Lovers–a reference to the native tribes who felt passionately, even violently, about defending this heart-stirring place.
