Discover "A Path Less Travelled" with Orion.
Since the launch in 2004, Orion Expedition Cruises has become the leading expedition cruise operator in Asia Pacific. The introduction of Orion II in June 2011 doubles the capacity and doubles the opportunity to introduce guests to new, and in many cases unique experiences in amazing destinations. All the while enjoying the comfort and safety of the 100 guest ships and five star onboard service. Venture into locations where larger ships can not access, nor could they bring guests ashore.
Orion destinations include the Russian Far East; the culturally rich Inland Sea of Japan; the energetic and charismatic Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia; the incredibly rich diversity of Borneo; New Zealand and sub-Antarctic islands that so few can visit; Papua New Guinea's ancient and primitive cultures; the grand frontier of Australia's Kimberley region and the Antarctic Continent.
Dining
In contrast to the wilds of Antarctica or rugged adventures in the Kimberley, the onboard cuisine is distinctly civilised. Award winning Sydney chef Serge Dansereau of 'The Bathers' Pavilion' fame has created signature menus inspired by local culinary traditions featuring produce and flavours reflecting the regions you are visiting. Each dish has been designed to complement our other alternatives allowing you to sample from each menu at your whim.
Orion's adventurous spirit is also reflected in our selection of Australian, New Zealand and European wines: vintages from exceptional lesser-known wineries complement our range of familiar labels.
Dining at any time is an unhurried experience with a single sitting free of fixed table assignments. Dine with friends you made on yesterday's exploration ashore or the couple you were chatting to on deck earlier.it is up to you. Dinner is always served in the Constellation Restaurant, or if the mood takes you, dine al fresco under the stars.
During the day if the scenery is too spectacular to simply let pass by, take a seat for a buffet breakfast or lunch at our Outdoor Cafe.
