Windstar Cruise: New Zealand to Tahiti

All – Inclusive South Pacific “Dream Cruise”

Enjoy a relaxing and beautiful ALL-INCLUSIVE 16-day cruise (Jan 20 – Feb 4 2024) on Windstar’s Star Breeze in the South Pacific! Oceania’s scattered island nations bring to mind the breathtaking beaches and peacock-colored lagoons of Tahiti, but they also contain the most diverse indigenous cultures in the world.

Reach out today to teva@tevastravelntours.com to start the dialog about price (based on where you are flying from and cabin category).  With a stunning 30% discount on current prices listed on their website for this cruise, my prices start at $4837 per person for double occupancy in a Porthole cabin. Flights, ground transportation and travel protection will be added as we build your package. I only have 10 cabins available, in various categories, eligible for this 30% discount.

Come with us and up to only 311 guests on The Star Breeze as we travel beyond the packaged resorts to experience a world few get to see. Go back to the way things used to be on Tonatapu (Tonga), with no crowds, only twinkling stars at night, and a pace of life many yearn for. Discover villages that still follow traditional ways of life on Tanna, Vanuatu. Explore small Fijian communities and the untouched rainforest of the Wasali Nature Reserve near Savusavu. Add context to the postcard images the South Pacific is known for.

It’s a big world out there. See it best from the Star Breeze yacht delivering genuine service tailored to your preferences. Travel off the beaten path and into small ports, hidden harbors and secluded beaches, and immerse yourself exploring local cultures few tourists can reach. This is private yacht-style cruising – 180 degrees from ordinary, for memories and friendships that last a lifetime.

Begin your voyage with a few relaxing days at sea discovering constellations only visible between South Pacific Islands and watching your luminescent wake trace your progress to stellar ports of call. Jaw-dropping beauty is everywhere – palm-fringed beaches, crystal clear lagoons, deep emerald mountains. But that’s just the beginning. Get to know Polynesian culture as it morphs from one island group to the next, participating in intimate village kava ceremonies, strolling through Nuku’alofa where many men still wrap themselves in traditional lava-lava, and watching exuberant Fijian fire dances. Go beyond legendary ports to find secret limestone caves lit by turquoise waters, deserted atolls just right for a beach barbecue, coral gardens alive with tropical fish, and surprising discoveries from Rarotonga’s delicious South Pacific-style food trucks to elaborate Hindu temples.

Auckland, NZ

The first thing to notice when you see Auckland is the 1,076-foot-high Sky Tower, the tallest free-standing structure in the Southern Hemisphere offering amazing panoramic views. The area was settled by the Maori around 1350 and was settled by Europeans in the early 1800s. The land here is rich and fertile and the economy is good. Take a ferry to Waiheke Island, known for its beaches, forests, vineyards and olive groves or stroll along Ponsonby Street known for arts, cafes, culture and historic villas.

Lautoka, Fiji

Nicknamed the “Sugar City” due to its expansive sugarcane plantations, Lautoka’s biggest employer is the Lautoka Sugar Mill, founded in 1903. Lautoka is the birthplace of PGA star Vijay Singh and is lovely with its tree-lined streets, colonial homes, outdoor markets and a cheerful, vibrant culture. Sights to see include South Sea Orchid Garden, Sabeto Village and Nadi Marketplace or Temple. This is also the place to make time for a relaxing mud pool bath.

Savu, Fiji

Welcome to the capital of Fiji with its broad streets, majestic British colonial buildings, lively farmer’s market and lush, green parks. Considered the most multiracial, multicultural country in the South Pacific, find a variety of excellent cuisine here including Indo-Fijian, Chinese, Italian and Japanese. Highlights here include the Fiji museum, Thurston Gardens, Colo-I-Suva Forest Park and Albert Park.

Savusavu, Fiji

Known as “the hidden paradise of Fiji,” beautiful Savusavu with its abundance of waterfalls, hiking trails, rainforests and black pearls, has recently been realized to be a tourist hotspot. The shabby-chic main street is a hodgepodge of eclectic watering holes, a bustling market, and a variety of shops and cosmopolitan restaurants. Find a black pearl farm, see the Vuadomo and Nakawaga Waterfalls or kayak, snorkel, sail, fish or take an easy hike. Bula!

Nuku’alofa, Tonatapu

Tonatapu is the main island of Tonga and Nuku’alofa is the capital city and home to the Talamahu Market and the waterfront Royal Palace where the Royal Family resides. Sites to see include the Free Church of Tonga, the Cenotaph, the Royal Tombs and Kingdomkoffie.

Avatiu, Rarotonga

The natural playground of Rarotonga is the hub of the Cook Islands. Surrounded by a lagoon, it offers palm-studded white-sand beaches, excellent snorkeling in the sparkling blue waters of Muri Lagoon and lush jungle forests. Just 20 miles (32 km) around, this popular island is becoming a foodie location with its numerous cafes and artisan and organic food scene. Other sights to see include Te Rua Manga peak (“The Needle”) and Takitumu Conservation Area.

Bora Bora

Our stay here allows plenty of time to capture the beauty in photographs — and you’ll want plenty. These stunning waters will show a different kaleidoscope of blue in each frame. You’ll have lots of options for exploration, whether you prefer the access provided by a 4-by-4, or the thrill of riding in the open air. Stretch out on stunning white-sand beaches, dive and swim in brightly colored seas, or sail among the tiny islands and lagoons. This is the stuff that dreams are made of and available to small ships.

Welcome to paradise, where your stunning surroundings soak up superlatives and call for more. In our stay here you’ll have plenty of time to do it all. Be sure to consider the opportunity to hone your photography talents on an optional tour of the island in the company of a professional photographer. Your choices here are endless. Hike the majestic Three Coconut Trail. Visit dolphins in their native habitat. Or spend your time swimming and kayaking from Wind Spirit’s Watersports Platform as we lay at anchor in these beautiful sapphire seas.

THE STAR BREEZE

Carrying only 312 guests, Star Breeze still tucks into small ports like Le Lavandou and Wrangell or narrow waterways like the Corinth and Keil Canal. View the ship with a virtual tour and cabin locations HERE
