Why Cape Town Features

Additionally, ten late-night stays are included across the voyage at destinations including Barcelona, Casablanca, Dubrovnik, Honolulu, Melbourne, and Sydney.
What Makes Mossel Bay Special
The Princess Cruises 2028 World Cruise maiden call to Mossel Bay marks the first time the cruise line has ever called at this South African port.
Mossel Bay sits along South Africa’s Garden Route and holds extraordinary archaeological value, its Pinnacle Point Cave System is a UNESCO World Heritage Site containing some of the earliest known evidence of modern human behaviour, with artifacts dating back over 160,000 years.
