Marco Polo on sale in Australia
Peter Marshall of Cruise Abroad told The Mole yesterday that he will continue as the gsa in Australia for Marco Polo when the 826-passenger ship makes her final voyage for Orient Lines on March 2 from Rio de Janeiro to Lisbon.
Peter has been the gsa for Orient Lines in Australia since 1995 when it was owned by Gerry Herrod and he continued in this role when NCL Corporation operated Marco Polo on charter from its parent company, Star Cruises.
He has also been retained by its new operator, German cruise specialist Transocean Tours, which has released Marco Polo’s European summer 2008 sailings from Tilbury, confirming that Marco Polo will cater for English-speaking passengers and sold in England, South Africa and Australia.
Peter also said that he has produced full colour brochures in Aussie dollars for each itinerary, which include Baltic Cities and St Petersburg, the British Isles, Iceland & Northern Isles, Norwegian Fjords, North Cape, Fjords and The Land of the Midnight Sun and The West Indies.
