Twin From $1,996 pp

[MicCanberra]

The Maasdam must be having issues filling the ship, as they have great prices for this and the 17 night cruise before it.

[icat2000]

HAL always starts off with over inflated pricing down under and then has to resort to bargain basement fares to fill the ship. 

[MicCanberra]

They have some nice itineraries though.

[GUT2407]

Mrs G has me back on the banners list but this was tempting
