With AIDAmar, AIDA Cruises sends a larger ship of the Sphinx class on a world cruise for the first time. On board the ship, the anticipation for the XXL adventure is huge among guests and crew. “For many, the world trip is a long-awaited life-long dream. As captain of this special journey, I am delighted to be able to contribute to the fulfillment of this wish together with my crew. Unforgettable moments await our guests both ashore and on board,” says Felix Rothe, Captain of AIDAmar. Around 8:00 p.m., the time will come: the ship sets course for the world from the Cruise Center Altona and does not return to the Hanseatic city until February 20, 2023.
Everyone who doesn’t want to miss the next chance for an AIDA world cruise can find what they’re looking for starting tomorrow. From Thursday, October 27, 2022, at 10:00 a.m., the 117-day world cruise 2024/2025 with AIDAsol is open for booking. 1In 17 days, 41 ports, 17 countries, four continents, two equator crossings and countless unique AIDA moments: a unique Selection journey awaits world discoverers on board AIDAsol from/to Hamburg from October 23, 2024, to February 17, 2025.
From Hamburg, the ship goes first to the Canary Islands and further around South America via Salvador, Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires and Tierra del Fuego to Chile. On the next stage, Wanderlust-inducing destinations such as Tahiti and New Zealand are on the schedule. In the beautiful, lush green island state in the southwest Pacific, AIDAsol will head for six different destinations at once, thus offering guests an extensive New Zealand experience like never before on a world cruise at the best local travel time. The country impresses with its untamed wilderness with mighty mountains and an impressive culture. The world cruise guests explore the ports of Napier and Christchurch/Lyttelton (Christmas Eve) as well as the passage in Milford Sound (Fjordland National Park) for the first time. The New Zealand visit is rounded off by stops in Auckland, Tauranga, Wellington and Picton. Via Australia with Sydney, Melbourne (New Year’s Eve/New Year) and Adelaide, the route continues to Mauritius, South Africa and back to the Hanseatic city on the river Elbe.
The world trip 2024/2025 will be open for booking starting from 14,445 euro per person for the AIDA PREMIUM price with 2er occupancy (inside cabin IB), inclusive 3,000 euro early-booker-plus-reduction with reservation to 30 April 2024. The contingent is limited.
Unforgettable highlights
Lyttelton/Christchurch: Spectacular, expansive natural landscapes, a vibrant cultural scene and, with the romantic Avon River, a river that runs through the center.
Napier: This new AIDA port is famous above all for its classicist architecture from the 1930s. The New Zealand Art deco city is also home to many Maori motives and patterns.
Tauranga: All of the “Lord of the Rings” and “Hobbit” movies were filmed in various locations in New Zealand. Guests can still admire the Shire with the hamlet of Hobbingen not far from the city center – in the seemingly endless greenery around Matamat.
Melbourne: Guests can celebrate their New Year’s Eve in the Australian metropolis! Along the Yarra River, in the Birrarung Marr parks, at Federation Square or on the deck of AIDAsol – you have a perfect view of the fireworks and drone show from everywhere.
Uturoa: This little place on the island of Raiatea is the pure South Seas experience! Paradise comes true with lush green hills, crystal clear turquoise sea and palm-fringed beaches.
For those who won’t be on board AIDAmar tonight and for whom the next AIDA world journey is still too far away, world travel reporter Sarah Bernauer (20) will be reporting on various AIDA social media channels and at https://www.aida.de/kreuzfahrt/ziele/weltreise.34744.html. With exciting reports and exclusive insights, she will be taking everyone at home with her on an unforgettable trip to true dream destinations, from Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) to Tahiti and Mauritius. The world travel reporter welcomes the new year with the guests before the magic scenery of Sydney. Via South Africa, Namibia, Tenerife, Madeira, the journey goes via Lisbon back to Hamburg, where the journey ends on February 20, 2023.
