Touring the Cunard Queen Victoria-The Height of Tradition and British Elegance

We had the pleasure of touring the Cunard Queen Victoria. This 4 1/2 star ship is the first ship that Cunard had designed by the renowned Italian shipyard Finacantieri. Its overall length is 964.5 feet and it accommodates approximately 2,000 pampered passengers. Its itineraries focus on transatlantic crossings as well as extended world voyages and European and exotic voyages. While the ship focuses on elegance it also offers two swimming pools, five hot tubs, and a first rate gym and spa. It offers many fine dining options including the famous Queen’s and Princess Grills, available to passengers with the best cabins. While it remains in top condition and style, it is headed for some updates and upgrades when it goes to dry dock next month. It will be even more elegant thereafter.
