13-DAY AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND CRUISETOUR STARTING AT $0,000 PER PERSON*
Sydney harbor, home of the iconic Opera
House, is the hub from which there’s much
to see and do. Admire the skyline, swim at a
harbor beach or cross the Sydney Harbour
Bridge. Want to see surfing? Spend the
day on world-famous Bondi Beach or take
a scenic walk to Coogee Beach. The Rocks
district is a shopper’s mecca offering a variety
of goods, from woodcrafts and unique art to
outback fashions.
Once the richest city in the world thanks to a
gold rush, Melbourne is Australia’s cultural
capital with striking architecture, chic
galleries and boutiques. Wave at a wallaby
or get close to a koala at a wildlife park. Feel
closer to the land on a ride on the Puffing Billy
steam locomotive through the mountains
and countryside. Back in the city, explore a
different culture and visit Chinatown — the
oldest one in the West.
A community of artisans on the northwest
coast of Tasmania, Burnie has long a history
as a community that makes things, with
locally crafted European-style cheeses, fine
papers, ceramics and single-malt whisky.
Surrounded by accessible wilderness areas,
you can still get a glimpse of little penguins
and the platypus in the wild. The vibrant
shopping district spills onto the beach
where you can sit down at a café.
In Wellington, travel to a Victorian past as
you stroll by the city’s Gothic buildings. Take
the cable car up the mountain for a fantastic
view or head to the beach. Journey around
the spectacular harbor. See some of the sites
where the Lord of the Rings trilogy was filmed.
Shopping opportunities include arts and
crafts, jewelry, fine woolens and leather goods.
Napier calls itself the Art Deco capital of
the world, but it’s also a leading wine-travel
destination. Leveled by an earthquake in
1931, Napier was rebuilt in Art Deco style.
Take a walk down Marine Parade (a tree-lined
ocean boulevard with fountains and gardens),
enjoy lovely country vistas or tour an area
vineyard and relax with a glass of wine.
Explore Tauranga, set on the beautiful Bay
of Plenty. Head to the beach or discover the
lovely parks and rich history. Visit a village
buried by a volcanic eruption and captured
in a moment of time. Visit Hell’s Gate, a
geothermal park with boiling pools, fantastic
geysers and mud baths (the largest of which
is Poutamu, “the stairway to heaven.”).
Surrounded by tranquil golden beaches, lush
forests and dramatic coastal trails, Auckland
is a nature lover’s paradise. New Zealand’s
largest city is also a shopper’s paradise. Learn
about the indigenous Maori and take home
some native art pieces or jewelry. The locallyproduced woolens also make excellent gifts.
Stunning beauty and history in Bay of Islands.
Kayaking, fishing and wildlife watching. An
abundance of sea life from dolphins that fly,
to penguins that dress in blue. Numerous
historic sites at New Zealand’s first British
settlement. Local artists offer paintings,
pottery, textiles and woodcarvings.

Insurance
Insurance is strongly suggested. Personalized quotes are based on
your age and total cost of the trip. You will have an opportunity to
request an insurance quote at final payment time (end of July 2017).
Your deposit is refundable (with the exception of the $100 per person
that gets paid to United Airlines) so you could wait until final payment
time. Note: There are several free benefits you get (the biggest is the
waiver of any pre-existing conditions) if you buy the policy within a
couple weeks of receiving the quote that you will not get if you wait. I
suggest that you wait to request your quote until you are ready to buy.

Insurance quote at final payment in mid August
Deposit and final payments
n $500 deposit required per cabin in the form of cash or check.
Final payment can be made by cash, check or credit card.
n Final payment invoices will be mailed out by July 25, 2017.
n Final payments will be due in my office by August 5, 2017.
HHH Warning and very important! HHH
There is no travel insurance included for this trip! I can send you a personalized
quote which can only be done by entering the total cost of your trip along
with your ages — that’s how they calculate the price. Although it will not
be cheap, consider the fact that I am contracting the air separately for you
at a savings of over $300 per person that could be used for this insurance.
Also consider that if for some reason we don’t arrive in Sydney before the
ship sails, we will all have to pay for a flight to Melbourne and two hotel
nights to catch up with the ship. After keeping all your receipts and with
insurance, you will be reimbursed for that expense. No insurance — totally
your expense! You don’t even need to purchase the insurance now as only
$100 per person for United is non refundable until time of final payment. You
can purchase travel insurance from wherever you like but NBS Travel Group
will not accept any responsibility for clients that opt not to insure their trip.
Cancellation dates, policies and fees per person
n Cancellation penalties begin August 19, 2017 and
increase until the sail date. $100 of your deposit goes
to United Airlines and is non-refundable from the time
of your initial depost

There are three airline seating options available to upgrade. They are estimated and final price
will be locked when names are added to the ticket. They are on a first-come basis and subject to
availability. For that reason, I would like to know by March 1, 2017 if you would like to upgrade. I
need at least 10 people to put in the request. If you miss that deadline, you will have to wait for
the next 10-person group or else you will have to wait until final ticketing and your requested
upgrade may not be available.
All of the aircraft are scheduled to seat 3x3x3 people across
n
Option #1 • United Airlines Economy Plus – Seating with five inches more leg room. For
the two long flights from Los Angeles to Sydney and Sidney to Los Angeles, it would cost about
$5,250 per person for the cruise and everything listed above.
n Option #2 • United Airlines Economy Plus – Seating for all four flights would cost about
$5,475 per person — cruise and everything listed above.
n
Option #3 • Use the Economy Seats – (if you don’t have long legs) and purchase the seat
in the middle for room to spread out. This would be for all flights and would cost about $5,555
per person — cruise and everything listed above.
