New expeditions and destinations feature in Orion’s 2010 itineraries

Sarina Bratton, managing director of Australia’s Orion Expedition cruises, has announced the 2010 itineraries for the five star expedition cruise vessel Orion.

‘Our 2010 itineraries continue to build on our core promise to take guests on paths less travelled and we are very excited to be providing expeditionary voyages to explore more Australian coastal marine parks, nature reserves, National Parks and World Heritage areas than ever before.

‘Our popular expeditions include the Antarctic, Kimberly, Arnhem Land, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand continue – but we have added a range of seven night East Coast, South Australian and Tasmanian explorations stretching from Cairns to Hobart.

‘New South East Australian itineraries take us to Melbourne, coastal Victoria and South Australia for the first time, providing plenty of opportunities to explore by sea and land, revelling in fine food and wine, and discovering the hidden treasures of the Limestone Coast, Kangaroo Island and the Eyre and Fleurieu Peninsulas. 

This now means that Orion has expeditions to every State in Australian in 2010!

‘Building on guest feedback from successful expeditions to date I am pleased to announce we will be expanding our itineraries in Papua New Guinea to include six new destinations. We are also visiting new parts of the exotic spice and Tanimbar Islands and for the first time will be adding an expedition that includes Irian Jaya, world famous for its Asmat Art. 

‘There is a wide choice of enticing destinations for new and repeat guests alike in 2010, with voyages from the polar regions to the tropics to the exotic, all experienced onboard the world’s youngest purpose-built expedition ship, Orion.’ Sphere: Related Content
