Abercrombie & Kent Travel Group’s newly refurbished Crystal ship Symphony has arrived in Perth for its Australian season.
After undergoing a multi-million dollar makeover under the new ownership of A&K Travel Group, the Crystal Symphony enters Australian waters docking in Fremantle.
The upgraded cruise ship features larger suites with artisanal finishes, new wellness offerings, on-board entertainment and the return of UMI UMA – a dining experience by Michelin-star Chef Master Chef Nobuyuki (Nobu).
The award-winning Symphony will journey from Fremantle and sail through to Busselton, Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney, with some itineraries continuing to New Zealand’s Bay of Islands and Auckland.
Ahead of the arrival, VP of Sales APAC Tony Archbold said, “We knew that Crystal had a loyal following from agents and guests in Australia and New Zealand and the reception we have received so far has confirmed it.”
“Both the trade and our guests are excited that under the new ownership of Abercrombie & Kent Travel Group, we have combined two of the most respected brands in travel and the market is responding as we offer guests the best of land and sea.
“From Australia’s ancient rock art and fine cuisine to New Zealand’s enchanting fjords and legendary Māori culture, Crystal is back and better than ever!”
Symphony’s five voyages take guests through the coastlines of Australia and New Zealand with A&K’s land excursions leading the way.
A&K Travel Group acquired the ship in 2022 with Crystal Cruises – starting a new chapter with a new brand launched earlier this year.
