Cunard Cruises Australia

Cunard Cruises In Australian Waters

Cunard Cruises Australia brings a touch of old-school glamour to local and regional sailings.

You enjoy all the signature traditions on board while waking up to harbour cities, wine regions or dramatic coastlines right on your doorstep.

Cunard Cruises Australia FAQs

What makes Cunard Cruises Australia different from regular local cruises?
Cunard brings a more traditional ocean liner feel, with dress codes on certain evenings, formal gala nights, dedicated ballrooms and an emphasis on service. You still enjoy modern amenities, but the overall style is more classic than casual.

Do I need to dress up every night on a Cunard cruise?
No. There are relaxed evenings as well as formal gala nights. On gala evenings passengers are encouraged to dress in cocktail or black-tie style in the main restaurants and theatres, while more casual options are usually available elsewhere on board.
