Ultra-luxe cruise line Viking has taken it upon themselves to pull us all out of those funky lockdown feels by giving away a once-in-a-lifetime ocean cruise for two to the tune of a whopping $20,000. Ummm, yes pls. 

Created in partnership with The Australian, the epic comp is offering up the chance to win a luxury cruise on board Viking Sky. 

The indulgent trip is a massive 15 day extravaganza spanning Italy, The Adriatic and Greece. Basically? It’s the ultimate breath of fresh air for travel-starved globetrotters. 

The voyage begins with an immersive exploration of Rome and Pompeii before taking in Italy’s south coast, including Sicily and Bari. Then it’s off to enjoy an extended stay in Venice where you’ll savour some of the world-renowned vineyards.

If you feel the need to walk off all those scrumptious Italian dining experiences, you’ll find Croatia is the ideal spot. From Dubrovnik to Dalmatia, there’s no shortage of picturesque walks (or some more extraordinary dining experiences, if that’s more you speed.)

There’s even a pitstop in the Montenegro countryside before you set sail for the verdant valleys of the Peloponnese, and take in an awe-inspiring 17th century monastery before heading for Athens to conclude your epic vacay. 

Prep you passport, the trip sets sail on the Viking Sky on March 10, 2023. Your Mediterranean odyssey awaits! (Unless we get there first.)
