Cruising with Susan Calman

Susan's latest cruise takes her around Greece and the Aegean Sea, uncovering hidden gems. Her journey starts in Athens with views of the Acropolis, followed by a lively sailaway party. In Thessaloniki, she enjoys a foodie tour, though she's not a fan of olives! In Kusadasi, she explores the ancient ruins of Ephesus. And on Santorini, she learns about tomatoes, and on Mykonos, she parties before finding serenity on Milos's tranquil beaches.

The comedian boards a massive ship, with 6,300 guests at the start of a five-day journey, visiting assorted Caribbean spots, beginning in Saint Vincent. In Barbados, she enjoys a rum punch-filled excursion and tries surfing. In Grenada, Susan explores the underwater sculpture park, and learns about nutmeg.

Susan embarks on a cruise in Australia, beginning in Melbourne. First she hops on one of the city's iconic trams to take in the sights. Susan then sails west overnight to Portland to view the coastal vistas of the Great Ocean Road and the Twelve Apostles, described as the world's largest war memorial. On Kangaroo Island and at Hanson Bay Wildlife Sanctuary, Susan spots her first kangaroo in the wild, and later spies a koala. In Adelaide, she takes a wine-tasting excursion to the McLaren Vale. The final stop is Tasmania, where Susan discovers dark truths of Britain's colonial past at Port Arthur.

In the first of a two-part visit to New Zealand, the presenter visits the South Island, arriving via the west coast and the atmospheric Milford Sound. Overnight the ship sails to the city of Dunedin, where Susan takes an excursion along the Taieri Gorge Railway. She also visits Lyttleton, and experiences life on a working sheep farm. The ship then heads for the North Island, and New Zealand's capital, Wellington. The comedian enjoys an excursion to Middle-Earth, and visits some of the locations from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit film saga.

Susan cruises from Napier to Auckland, tours Art Deco streets, shadows the ship's pilot, explores Maori culture, glow worms in Waipu, and also discovers a family link.
