The move offers travel advisors the opportunity to secure places for clients well ahead of what is expected to be one of the most sought-after travel events of the decade.
The specialist operator has launched three itineraries built around the rare celestial event, combining prime eclipse viewing with top Australian destinations including Sydney, Port Douglas and the remote Kimberley.
“Total solar eclipses consistently attract huge international attention and accommodation and viewing locations within the eclipse path tend to sell out years in advance,” said Mauricio Zarzar, Product Manager at Eclipse Travel.
“The 2028 eclipse will be one of the most significant astronomical events visible from Australia in decades. By securing space now, travel advisors can position their clients in some of the most spectacular locations in the country to witness the event.”
The standout offering in Eclipse Travel’s portfolio is the 11-day ‘Le Jacques Cartier 2028 Solar Eclipse & Australia’s Iconic Kimberley’ expedition cruise, sailing from Broome to Darwin aboard the luxury small expedition ship operated by Ponant.
Agents can offer clients an exclusive saving of up to $1,500 per person on the Kimberley voyage when booked before March 31, 2026 (commission applies).
The 10-day ‘2028 Australia Total Solar Eclipse – Sydney & Port Douglas’ tour is priced from $9,043 per person.
It includes time exploring Sydney’s harbour landmarks and the Blue Mountains before travelling north to Port Douglas to experience the Daintree Rainforest and Great Barrier Reef.
For clients seeking elevated comfort, the 10-day Deluxe Edition, priced from $11,174 per person, follows the same itinerary with five-star accommodation and upgraded services.
“These itineraries make it easy for advisors to offer their clients a complete Australian experience centred around the eclipse,” Mr Zarzar added.
“Whether clients prefer an expedition cruise through the Kimberley or a classic itinerary featuring Sydney and the Great Barrier Reef, these journeys allow them to witness a once-in-a-generation phenomenon in extraordinary locations.”
Eclipse Travel is an Australian-owned specialist tour operator designing tailor-made and small group journeys to some of the world’s most extraordinary and remote destinations, including Africa, Latin America and the Polar regions.
