  • Scenic Cruising: Hubbard Glacier, College Fjord
  • Sea Days: 12
  • No. of Ports: 18

Moorea, French Polynesia

Tahiti gets the name recognition, but Moorea is the one you’ll keep thinking about. The jagged volcanic peaks drop almost straight into water so clear you can see the coral from the ship. Spend the day snorkelling in Cook’s Bay, take a 4WD tour up into the hills, or just sit on the beach and accept that this is as good as it gets.

Honolulu, Hawaii

You’ll have a full day in Honolulu, which is enough time to do it properly. Walk the memorial at Pearl Harbour in the morning, then head to Waikiki in the afternoon for a swim at one of the most famous stretches of sand in the world. Diamond Head is worth the hike if you’re up for it, and the food scene around Chinatown has quietly become one of the best in the Pacific.

Juneau, Alaska

Juneau is one of those places that earns every photo. You can walk to the Mendenhall Glacier from town, which still feels remarkable when you’re actually standing in front of it. The surrounding Tongass National Forest is enormous and genuinely wild, whale watching is reliable in June, and the town itself has good food and a low-key charm that catches a lot of people off guard.

Hubbard Glacier

No tendering, no shore excursions. The ship simply slows down and you watch. Hubbard is the largest tidewater glacier in North America, and when a chunk of ice the size of a building breaks off and hits the water, you feel it through the deck. Dress warmly, get outside early for a spot on the railing, and give yourself permission to stand there for a couple of hours.

Tokyo, Japan

After weeks at sea, arriving in Tokyo is a moment to remember. The city is enormous and dense and endlessly interesting, and most people on a repositioning cruise build in extra nights here before flying home. Tsukiji outer market for breakfast, Asakusa for the temples, Shibuya for the sheer spectacle of it. If this is your first time, budget at least four days. You’ll still feel like you’ve barely started.

Grand Princess – Ship Overview

Grand Princess has been doing this long enough to have it figured out. She carries around 2,600 passengers, which puts her in that comfortable middle ground of large enough to feel like a proper ship, but not so big you spend half your holiday looking for the lift. If you want a classic Princess experience without the crowds of a megaship, this is a great choice.

Dining

The main dining rooms offer both traditional fixed seating and anytime dining, so you can eat on your schedule rather than the ship’s. Beyond that, Crown Grill handles the steaks and Sabatini’s covers Italian, with a Chef’s Table experience that takes you behind the scenes into the galley before a multi-course dinner. The International Cafรฉ on the Piazza runs 24 hours and is genuinely useful, with fresh pastries in the morning and decent coffee throughout the day.

Entertainment

The multi-storey Piazza is the social centre of the ship, with live music, roving performers and cafรฉs running through the day and into the evening. Movies Under the Stars is the standout for a lot of passengers, with films shown poolside after dark and blankets handed out by the crew. The Princess Theatre puts on production shows most nights if you want something more formal to fill the evening.

Wellness

The Lotus Spa covers the full range, from facials and aroma stone massages to detoxifying wraps and an aromatherapy thermal suite. The Sanctuary on Deck 16 is the adults-only retreat, with proper loungers, chilled towels and dedicated stewards if you want a quiet spot away from the pools. The fitness centre runs Pilates and yoga classes as well as personal training if you’d rather keep moving.

Grand Princess Cabins

Grand Princess launched in 1998 and the cabins reflect that, so go in with realistic expectations. What you get is a comfortable, well-run ship with decent space and good bedding, rather than the floor-to-ceiling glass and walk-in wardrobes of the newer builds. Inside cabins start compact, balcony cabins give you the outdoor space worth having on a long repositioning voyage, and the suites add meaningful extra room without feeling over-designed.
