September 2000 Dear Cruise Enthusiast, Thank you for choosing to receive information about special travel opportunities. This e-mail from Clipper Cruise Line, named one of the top-ten cruise lines in the world by the readers of Condi Nast Traveler magazine for the past five years, is designed to make it easier for you to discover the beauty of small-ship cruising. Were delighted to be able to extend to you a special offer to explore New Zealands spectacular North and South islands this November or December. This unique itinerary offers the best of New Zealand -- spectacular waterways, majestic mountains, rolling pastureland, and lively cities. Youll embark the 122-passenger Clipper Odyssey in Auckland, and enjoy a full day of exploration of this vibrant city while the ship is tied up at the citys Waitemata Harbor, within easy walking distance of downtowns museums, parks, and lively waterfront. Then, youll set sail on a route that takes you along virtually all of New Zealands eastern coastline. Well stop at Tauranga, where you may join an optional tour to Rotorua to discover the rich culture of the native Maori; Napier, with its nearby enormous gannet population; Queen Charlotte Sound, where we use our Zodiacs for exploration; Lyttelton, the jumping-off point for a tour of the very English city of Christchurch, or for an optional ride on the Tranz Alpine Express; and the Scottish-flavored city of Dunedin, located at the end of a long and beautiful harbor. Then, well cruise through the stunning Fiordland National Park, including Dusky and Doubtful Sounds, and the spectacular Milford Sound, where youll disembark. Following the cruise, enjoy two days at the ParkRoyal Hotel in Queenstown, surrounded by The Remarkables mountain range. During your stay, youll thrill to an exhilarating jetboat ride on the Shotover River. An experienced expedition leader and a distinguished group of naturalists accompany us throughout our voyage, adding to your enjoyment of the places we visit. On the comfort side, the Clipper Odyssey offers amenities you would expect to find aboard a luxury yacht -- outside staterooms averaging a generous 186 square feet in size, an elegant dining room where meals are served at leisurely seatings, a comfortable library, gymnasium, beauty salon, and outdoor pool.
