Cruise1st & Holland America Line Exclusive Fly, Cruise & Stay Package

21-night package, including return flights from Sydney & 2 nights in London!

What's the big deal? This Cruise1st offer saves you up to $518 compared with building the same trip yourself. Bookings confirmed by 25 January also include added privileges. A $300 per person deposit secures your place, along with up to US$150 in onboard credit per cabin.

Why you should go: Chase the Northern Lights from the deck of a moving ship, deep inside the Arctic Circle. You slip through dark water and silent fjords, far from any city glow. This 21-night journey follows the same routes used by Viking traders and polar explorers. It begins in London, with two nights to explore the historic city before boarding Holland America's Nieuw Statendam. From there, you'll sail north toward the edge of the map. Glide past Norway’s wildest coast to Alesund, Andalsnes, Trondheim, and The Lofoten Islands. Mountains, fishing towns, and deep blue fjords shape the experience of the north. Tromso and Alta take you into true Arctic territory, where longer nights and open horizons favour aurora sightings. Between wild skies and Kristiansund and Bergen's colourful harbours, the journey feels both remote and richly human. It ends in Amsterdam, where canals and cafés offer a gentle landing after the Arctic’s vastness. With History Channel–inspired curated experiences, the places gain deeper meaning. Viking stories, Arctic exploration, and life along this coast put history in IMAX. Even the return is taken care of, with flights and the Rotterdam to Amsterdam transfer included.
