The ‘SS Rotterdam‘ is the favorite cruise ship of many experienced cruisers. This fall, she will depart Vancouver on Sept. 26th for a 58â€"day cruise around the Pacific Ocean â€" visiting 17 portsâ€"ofâ€"call, arriving in Los Angeles Nov. 23rd. After an Inside Passage cruise up the British Columbia coast to Alaska, you cross the Pacific Ocean to the Orient... making calls at Japan, Russia, South Korea, and China, before a 2â€"day visit to Hong Kong. On to Singapore and Indonesia before your call at Darwin on the north coast of Australia. All cruise guests will receive a shore excursions booklet before departure to better plan their port visâ€" its. One of the most interesting options is a 6â€"night, 7â€"day Australia air tour from Darwin to Ayers Rock, Cairns, the Great Barrier Reef, Sydney, and then on to Vanuatu to rejoin the cruise. Continuing the cruise from Darwin will be 5â€"days cruising (durâ€" ing your Australia side trip) to Vanuatu and then island hopping across the South Pacific until Hawaii for the final leg of the cruise to Los Angeles. After 30 years of cruising, the ‘SS Rotterdam‘ hasn‘t changed that much. It‘s like stepping into a glamâ€" orous mansion. Flowers everywhere, priceless tapestries and mosaics adorn the walls. with sile _Morzon QUALITY ESCORTED HOLIDAYS * MEDITERRANEAN * AEGEAN BLACK SEA * ALASKA INSIDE PASSAGE from $5635. 16Days _ from$5717. 9Days _ from$3352.
