NAIROBI · KENYA
A remarkable journey from Kenya to the Southern Hemisphere.
Australia and New Zealand offer some of the world's most extraordinary cruise experiences — from the harbour icons of Sydney and Melbourne to the fjords of Milford Sound, the landscapes of New Zealand and the spectacular coastline of Australia.
For Kenyan travellers, an Australia cruise from Nairobi or a New Zealand cruise from Kenya can turn a long-haul holiday into a beautifully connected journey. Instead of moving between hotels every few days, a cruise gives you the opportunity to unpack once while your ship carries you between remarkable destinations.
Whether you are looking for an Australia and New Zealand cruise from Kenya, a shorter Australian sailing or an extended itinerary combining both countries, the right cruise depends on more than the destination. Sailing dates, cruise line, cabin category, departure port and the time you have available all influence the experience.
Your holiday may begin with a flight from Nairobi, followed by a few nights in Sydney, Melbourne or Auckland before you step aboard. After your cruise, you may choose to extend your stay, explore further or simply return home.
Cruises by Bob helps bring those moving parts together. From selecting the right cruise itinerary to considering flights, hotels and the practical travel requirements associated with an international cruise, we look at the journey as a whole.
For travellers comparing Australia cruise packages from Kenya or New Zealand cruise packages from Kenya, this approach means your cruise is planned as part of a complete holiday — not simply as a cabin reservation.
Australia, New Zealand and the landscapes in between.
An Australia and New Zealand cruise can connect major cities, spectacular coastlines, remote landscapes and remarkable ports in one beautifully planned journey. From a cruise departure in Sydney to the fjords of Milford Sound, the Southern Hemisphere offers an extraordinary range of experiences for travellers coming from Kenya.

Plan Your CruiseHow much does an Australia cruise from Kenya cost?
There is no single price for an Australia or New Zealand cruise from Kenya. The total cost depends on the cruise line, sailing date, itinerary, cabin category and the wider travel arrangements around the cruise.
For Kenyan travellers, it is important to consider the holiday as a complete journey rather than looking only at the cruise fare. An Australia cruise from Nairobi can involve international flights, accommodation before or after the sailing, transfers, visas, excursions and other travel arrangements.
The same applies when comparing a New Zealand cruise from Kenya. Two itineraries with similar cruise fares can have very different overall costs depending on the length of the holiday, departure port and cabin selected.

Australia, New Zealand and the landscapes in between.
An Australia or New Zealand cruise can connect major cities, spectacular coastlines and extraordinary natural landscapes within one carefully planned international holiday. For travellers coming from Kenya, the right itinerary can make the long journey from Nairobi feel even more worthwhile.
Sydney, Melbourne & beyond
Australia offers an exciting starting point for a Southern Hemisphere cruise holiday. Depending on your itinerary, you may begin or extend your journey around Sydney, Melbourne or other Australian ports, giving you time to experience the country's cities, coastline, dining and culture before or after your sailing.
For Kenyan travellers planning an Australia cruise from Nairobi, adding a few nights on land can turn the cruise into a more complete Australian holiday.
Auckland, Milford Sound & the South Island
New Zealand cruises combine distinctive coastal cities with some of the Southern Hemisphere's most dramatic scenery. Depending on the sailing, you can visit Auckland, Tauranga, Wellington and Dunedin while experiencing the country's spectacular landscapes.
Some itineraries also include scenic cruising around Milford Sound, where mountains, fiords and dramatic waterways become part of the cruise experience itself.
Australia & New Zealand by sea
A combined Australia and New Zealand cruise can be an appealing choice for travellers who want to experience both countries during one extended Southern Hemisphere holiday. Rather than choosing between Australia and New Zealand, selected itineraries bring destinations from both countries together.
For travellers making the long journey from Kenya, these longer itineraries can offer an opportunity to experience more of the region while combining the cruise with flights and hotels around the sailing.
Cruise ports and itineraries vary by cruise line, sailing date and season. Cruises by Bob can help you compare the journey as a whole, including the cruise, flights, accommodation and practical travel arrangements from Kenya.
Planning an Australia or New Zealand cruise from Nairobi?
Travelling from Kenya to Australia or New Zealand involves more than selecting a cruise. Your international flights, cruise departure city, accommodation, timing and relevant travel requirements all need to work together.
For many Kenyan travellers, the cruise is only one part of a much longer international holiday. You may choose to arrive in Australia or New Zealand before your sailing, spend time exploring the departure city, and add hotels or other arrangements before returning to Nairobi.
The aim is to make the journey from Kenya feel as seamless as the cruise itself.

Questions Kenyan travellers ask.
Planning a cruise from Kenya to Australia or New Zealand? Here are some of the questions travellers commonly consider before booking an international cruise holiday from Nairobi.
Yes. Kenyan travellers can book Australia and New Zealand cruises from Nairobi. The cruise will normally depart from a port in Australia or New Zealand, so the wider journey involves international flights and, depending on the itinerary, hotels and transfers. Cruises by Bob can help coordinate the cruise with the rest of your journey from Kenya.
Most Kenyan travellers will fly from Nairobi to Australia and connect with their cruise departure city, such as Sydney or another Australian port. Because international flights and cruise departure times need to align, many travellers choose to arrive before the cruise rather than flying in on the same day. Cruises by Bob can help plan flights and accommodation around your sailing.
There is no single price for an Australia cruise from Kenya. The overall cost depends on the cruise line, sailing date, itinerary, cabin category, international flights, hotels, transfers, visas and other travel expenses. For this reason, it is better to consider the complete holiday cost rather than the cruise fare alone. You can request a personalised cruise quote from Cruises by Bob.
The cost of a New Zealand cruise from Kenya varies according to the cruise line, itinerary, sailing date, cabin and the wider journey from Nairobi.

Australian cruise departure ports vary by cruise line and itinerary. Sydney is one of the region's major cruise gateways, while other sailings can operate from ports such as Melbourne and Brisbane.

Visa and entry requirements depend on your nationality, the countries you enter and your specific itinerary. Kenyan travellers should check the current official requirements for Australia and New Zealand before travelling because requirements can change.
