About Us

Cruise Express International is a multi-award-winning travel agency specialising in cruise travel and escorted group tours for Australians.

Cruise Express International was launched in 1996 by one of our directors, Hardy Schneider. His passion for cruising began that year with his first voyage aboard the luxurious Crystal Symphony. In 2001, Hardy joined forces with fellow cruising buffs, Lance Mumby and Meg Hill (now fellow directors), and Cruise Express was relocated in July that year to new premises in Balmain, Sydney.

Today, Cruise Express is recognised as one of Australia's leading specialist cruise agencies, selling our own popular hosted cruise tours to all corners of the planet and also offering a ‘world of cruising’ and other travel options for independent travellers. Our growing number of customers herald from all States and Territories in Australia and many have formed enduring friendships with fellow passengers they have met on our escorted voyages.

Our friendly, expert team has sailed the seven seas so we know which ship and which destination will bring the most enjoyment to our customers. Our mission is to deliver to every guest the dream holiday they deserve with professional, speedy and reliable service that exceeds their expectations.

We have received numerous awards of distinction from Cunard Line, Seabourn, Princess Cruises, P&O Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line and others, and, in 2004, Cruise Express was named the best cruise agency in Australia by the International Cruise Council of Australasia (ICCA).  We were also voted by ICCA as having the best cruise consultant in Australia in 2008 and with the best consumer promotion the same year.
