Sailing out of Sydney Harbour past the Opera House is the best departure in cruising, and on a back-to-back you get it twice.
Let the planner do the Sydney math, including which casino offer to spend on which leg.
See every back-to-back from SydneyThe back-to-back from Sydney with the lowest total for 2 guests, with an interior cabin on sale on every leg, back in Sydney at the end. Prices last checked Nov 1, 2026, 5:20 PM Pacific.
2 ships sail back to back from Sydney. Anthem of the Seas has the most, 45 trips, then Voyager of the Seas (5). The most common trip is a 3-night and a 9-night sailing, 12 nights in all (15 of 51). Top stops: Port Vila, Mystery Island, Noumea and Royal Beach Club Lelepa. The next leaves on Nov 2, 2026, on Anthem of the Seas.
Each bar is the lowest total for 2 guests in that month, both legs together, interior cabin, taxes and fees included. Under each month: how many back-to-backs sail.
One row a ship, counting the back-to-backs that stay on that ship for both legs. 1 more change ship on turnaround day, so they are not in this table.

Showing 20 of 51 back-to-backs: priced ones first, soonest first within each. Prices last checked Nov 1, 2026, 5:20 PM Pacific. They are refreshed on a schedule, not live, so confirm a price with Royal Caribbean before you book. Open all 51 in the planner ›
The Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay puts you in the middle of the city on turnaround day. Australian border processing is efficient and consecutive cruisers are usually back aboard quickly.
Circular Quay is central and served by train and ferry. Note that some sailings use White Bay instead, which is less convenient, so check which terminal each leg uses.
Nearest airport: Sydney Kingsford Smith (SYD), about 30 minutes away.
A casino offer covers one sailing. Put two back to back and you can spend two offers on one continuous trip. legtolegcruises.com works out which offer belongs on which leg so the trip costs you as little as possible.
Yes. We see 51 back-to-backs that start in Sydney, leaving between Nov 2, 2026 and Apr 11, 2028, 50 of them on a single ship. By ship: Anthem of the Seas (45) and Voyager of the Seas (5).
The lowest total is Anthem of the Seas, Feb 18, 2028 to Mar 1, 2028, 12 nights, at $3,593 for 2 guests ($1,796 per person). Prices last checked Nov 1, 2026.
12 to 27 nights in all. The most common is a 3-night and a 9-night sailing, in either order, 12 nights aboard (15 of 51). Next most common: two 9-night sailings (12) and an 8-night and a 9-night sailing (4).
44 of 51 come back to Sydney. The other 7 end somewhere else: Oahu (Honolulu) (2), Singapore (2), Vancouver (2) and Hong Kong (1). Check where yours ends before you book a flight home.
Most use the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay, but some sailings are assigned to White Bay across the harbour. On a back-to-back it is worth confirming both legs, since a terminal change on turnaround day would complicate things.
