Locals are particularly proud of the National Museum of New Zealand - Te Papa Tongarewa. Loosely translated as "our place" from the native Maori tongue, the museum is one of the world’s largest and most progressive. A great way to explore the city is on the restored cable cars, which traverse the shopping district. And if you want to experience it all from above, take in the panoramic views from Mount Victoria. ### Day 8: Christchurch, New Zealand **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM New Zealand's "Garden City," featuring numerous parks and gardens as well as Victorian architecture, avenues and squares. ### Day 9: Dunedin, New Zealand **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM Dunedin is a city in New Zealand, at the head of Otago Harbour on the South Island’s southeast coast.

This serves as a playground for a number of species, including fur seals and two types of penguins - the fiordland crested and blue penguin. ### Day 10: Milford Sound, New Zealand **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM As we sail into the narrow fjords of the Milford Sound, even your massive ship seems to shrink in comparison to the towering cliffs topped by lush mountain terrain.
