With a legend at sea

Cunard & the Queen Mary 2

on a musical journey: General information

For over 180 years, Cunard has stood for a very special cruising tradition. The British shipping company is particularly famous for its classic route from Europe to America. The journey from Southampton to New York is no ordinary cruise, but an elegant and relaxed experience with international flair.

When you step aboard the Queen Mary 2, you immediately sense that speed is not the focus here. You travel at a leisurely pace with music. Our selected cruise offers ensure that cultural enjoyment is not neglected. High-calibre concerts, exciting discussions or simply the sound of the ocean: your days on board will be special.

What makes Cunard so special:

•    an international audience and a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere

•    an excellent crew-to-passenger ratio of 2:1

•    particularly generous space per passenger

•    daily afternoon tea

The Queen Mary 2: A ship with a royal name

The Queen Mary 2 was built specifically for the Atlantic and meets the highest standards of comfort, safety and elegance. With a length of 345 metres, it is the only ship still in regular service between Europe and North America.

On board, you can expect an elegant travel experience with various cabin categories and restaurants. Whether in the stylish Britannia World, the upscale Princess Grill or the exclusive Queens Grill World: everywhere you stay comfortably, dine excellently and enjoy personal service.

You will find our cabin recommendations in our travel offers. We are also happy to book other categories for you on request.
