Westerdam is making its maiden call at the port on a repositioning voyage from Vancouver to Sydney.
Big welcome
The Samoa Tourism Authority, in conjunction with the Samoa Ports Authority and shore excursion agents, are planning a big welcome for the 1,964-passenger ship.
‘Apia will be a popular port call for Westerdam’s guests because of its natural coastal beauty and culture,’ said Ryan Taibel, Carnival Australia VP of Sales.
Taibel said they will have the opportunity to visit the Museum of Samoa, the Robert Louis Stevenson Museum and vanilla farms.
Maiden visit to Australasia
Westerdam is also making its maiden voyage to Sydney where it arrives November 8 to be home-ported until January 3.
The ship will sail seven itineraries around Australia and New Zealand, ranging from 13 to 30 days.
