Cruise Traveller is the exclusive representative and general sales agent in Australia for Nicko which is headquartered in Germany and celebrated 30 years of cruising last year.
Originally a river cruise operator, the line has two ocean ships — the 200-passenger World Voyager and the 1,000-passenger Vasco da Gama, formerly Holland America Line’s Statendam and P&O Cruises Australia’s Pacific Eden.
Vasco da Gama’s 183-day world cruise departs Lisbon on October 10, returning on April 8, 2024.

On November 1, passengers from Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth will be flown to Cape Town for one night’s accommodation before joining the ship to sail to 43 ports.
The vessel will visit Madagascar, the Maldives, Seychelles and Reunion, India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Cambodia, the Philippines and Indonesia, with 14 overnight stays.
