Australia’s first world-class expedition cruise line. A” There has been growing interest in luxury expedition cruising in other parts of the world and so we bring this concept to Australia with a combination of quality on-board surroundings, service and comfort whilst taking our guests to experience many wonderful places that, until now, have been difficult to access.” Sarina Bratton, Managing Director. ORION arrived in Australia early in 2005; the itineraries feature destinations diverse as Australia’s Top End including Cape York, Arnhem Land, the Kimberley and East Timor. ORION will also explore lesser-visited parts of the Great Barrier Reef, Tasmania, Antarctica and the sub-Antarctic islands. If you are interested in the idea of cruising aboard a luxuriously appointed, modern ship perfectly configured to take you to unspoilt destinations in and around Australia – places big cruise ships simply cannot reach, we invite you to explore these cruises. Turtles, manta rays, whales, bird life, deserted beaches, clear night skies, and colours in the Reef and ocean that you only thought possible in dreams. For the Top End and Kimberley regions the experiences offer wild, rugged coastlines with incredible waterfalls, fishing, wildlife, aboriginal art in the wild, and the world’s most successful pearling industry. Given the huge 10 metre tides, it also has one of the most challenging operating environments.
