Elegance, luxury and sophistication. Enriching experiences and service. These are just a few of the ways to describe Cunard.

With only 3 ships, Cunard focuses on the little details to delight its customers and keep its reputation for first-class cruising. Step back into the golden era of cruising where you’ll feel like you experienced something truly unique and truly magnificent.

So, what can you expect from a Cunard cruise?

Space to relax

Cunard cruises never feel crowded. Whether you’re strolling along the promenade, relaxing by the lido pool, exploring the Royal Arcade or having a drink in the Chart Room, you’ll almost feel like you have the ship to yourself.

Step back in time

Unlike other cruise lines, evenings on Cunard are all about creating that old world sense of occasion. Gala Evenings are all about glamour, wearing your finest suit or cocktail dress. There are usually 2 to 3 Gala Evenings per 7-night cruise. For the other evenings, smart attire is the go-to dress code in most bars and restaurants aboard. Both of these create an atmosphere of elegance, which embodies the Cunard brand.

But, if dressing up isn’t for you, don’t worry as you can still dress casually for many locations around the ship including the Golden Lion Pub, Casino, King’s Court and Lido Deck to name a few.

Impeccable service

Afternoon Tea

This is an integral part of the Cunard experience. Afternoon tea is served daily in the Queen’s Room with string quartets or pianists creating a relaxing atmosphere. The waiters come with endless amounts of dainty sandwiches, cakes and scones. Delicious indulgence!

Mairead, our Product Development Manager for Cruise, cruised with Cunard last year saying

“Cunard is a real cruising experience. The sense of relaxed luxury on board really allows you to unwind while subtly letting you know you are special.”
