Joined Queen Victoria for seven night's of this cruise. Sailed through the embarkation, we were lucky as only our coach to arrive at that time.Cabin comfortable and clean and kept nice by our steward. We had Breakfast and Lunch in the buffet restaurant, which had an excellent choice of food, regularly replenished and always hot. Dinner was in the Britannia Restaurant with good menu choices and we enjoyed everthing we had. Service in all areas was pleasant and efficient. Weather was excellent as expected and the ports of Corfu,Kotor, Trieste and Venice were all very good. Had been to Venice before on a city break but got up early to enjoy the sail in by cruise ship. We don't really worry too much about the entertainment but did catch two shows by the Theatre team which we enjoyed and the female guest singer was excellent. Formal afternoon tea is served in the beautiful Queen's Room and was a 'must do'. Also, the Winter Garden was a lovely area to sit in and read, have a drink,etc.

Have cruised for the last 20 years but never before with Cunard. This is the best ship we have been on and we particularly enjoyed the ambience of the ship; Cunard are maintaining the traditions and standards which cruising was known for.

Cabin Review

Standard Inside

Cabin IF

Cabin was in an excellent location at front of the ship on Deck 8. Only had to go up one floor and then just walk through to the buffet restaurant.

Port Reviews

Corfu

Went to the old fort ,well worth a couple of hours here providing you can climb to the top for the lovely views, including the ships in port. Toilets and cafe here.

Kotor

Probably the loveliest port we have ever been to, the ship literally sails right into town! Lots of little streets to walk around and plenty of gift shops, cafes and bars.

Venice

What can you say about Venice, it is extraordinary and unique. Had been before on a city break so were happy just to enjoy the quieter areas.
