With peaceful, uneventful days at sea, accompanied by our high level of service and fabulous chef-prepared cuisine, a free-steam is a great way to experience an ocean voyage. If you love life at sea, admire 360 horizon views, and enjoy the warm hospitality of our crew, then join us on board for the first of our Open Passage Series, Wellington to Sydney.

The trip might have been the absolute best of our lifetime (thus far). We particularly want to commend our guide Peter in the Guilin area-he was so incredibly attentive, energetic, enthusiastic-and absolutely dedicated to ensuring that our meals were 100% vegetarian.
