Home Pick-Up & Boarding

Your holiday begins! Whether you’ve made use of the complimentary parking or a Limitless transfer, our team will be there to help you check in your bags and board the ship. Those guests staying in an accessible cabin will also benefit from Priority Embarkation. We know check-in and boarding can be a nervous experience for some travellers, so Limitless assists with every aspect. You can learn about our check in and boarding support in greater detail in our FAQs.

Once aboard the cruise ship, you’ll have a chance to settle into your cabin, explore the ship, and meet your fellow Limitless Travellers. The Limitless Care Team is always available to provide support and ensure your holiday gets off to the best possible start.

Exploring the Queen Elizabeth

Your first day at sea is all about exploring the ship and settling in. Typically, the Limitless Team meets with everyone in the morning to catch up over breakfast, make sure you had a comfortable night, discuss the day ahead, and plan activities. We often lunch and dine as a group as well, so you’re never short of company.

During days at sea, there’s plenty to see and do on the Queen Elizabeth. As a group, Limitless Travellers often enjoy a relaxed morning, followed by a group lunch and some afternoon fun - be it a theatre show or a musical performance. Then it’s time to get dressed up for a delicious dinner, followed by some fantastic evening entertainment. Of course, how you spend your day is entirely up to you! But it’s good to know that the Limitless Team and your fellow travellers are always around too.

Onboard Entertainment

The Queen Elizabeth’s exquisite venues hark back to a bygone age of fantastic on-sea entertainment. The 800-seat Royal Theatre is finished in majestic blue, boasts plush boxes for hire and hosts unforgettable West End shows, hair-raising musical talents, and fascinating guest speakers. The ever-popular Queen’s Room features a glamorous ballroom space and surrounding seating, from which you can enjoy nightly live music and dance classes.

The Commodore Club’s panoramic ocean views and intimate atmosphere make for the ideal environment in which to enjoy live piano, while the Golden Lion offers a more relaxed, pub-themed space where you can dance the night away to great singers and bands. Of course, you’ll also find live performers in the Grand Lobby, setting the mood for the night ahead.  

Restaurants & Bars

Whether you’re fond of your fish and chips or love sampling global delicacies, the Queen Elizabeth offers a mouth-watering array of dining options to suit all tastes. As with all Cunard ships, passengers are assigned a main dining room based on their stateroom. All offer fantastic service, diverse menus and delicious food.

The main dining rooms are supplemented by a range of casual options, including the health-focused Pavilion Wellness Café, the Carinthia Lounge, and Lido and Kings Court. For a truly memorable dining experience, the speciality restaurants offer stand-out fare from around the world. Top of the list is sampling the exquisite menu at the ever-popular Steakhouse at the Verandah.

Port Visit

Situated at the head of the gorgeous Ototfjord, Narvik is surrounded by majestic mountains, deep blue fjords and pristine arctic countryside. Warmed by the Gulf Stream, it is a historically important ice-free port and was also the site of a well-known World War II naval battle.

Today, one of the town’s main attractions is the wheelchair-accessible Narvikfjellet cable car, which ascends around 660 metres to the top of the local ski resort and the Fjellkaféen 656 mountain restaurant. Here, you can grab a bite to eat or a warming drink and enjoy the unparalleled views of the fjords below. Alternatively, the Museum Nord offers a fascinating insight into the town's history.

Port Visit

Having anchored in Narvik overnight, you have a second morning to enjoy this relaxed Norwegian town. As always, you can choose to head ashore or stay aboard the ship and enjoy the world-class amenities. Whether that means indulging in a lavish breakfast while admiring the fjord’s remarkable natural beauty or pampering yourself in the ship’s spa is entirely up to you.

If you do head ashore, the Narvik War Museum houses excellent exhibits detailing the pivotal role the town played in WWII and the fearsome naval and mountain battles that unfolded over 62 remarkable days in 1940. It’s certainly a great stop for history aficionados. Of course, you could also opt to cosy up in a traditional café with a hot beverage and enjoy the spectacular mountainous backdrop.

Port Visit

Though it’s a fair way north of the Arctic Circle, Tromsø boasts a remarkably mild climate for its latitude. While ice-free waters and westerly winds mean this vibrant city (it has the most bars per capita in all of Norway) may be a little warmer than usual, there’s still plenty of snow!

Tromsø is also home to several excellent accessible attractions, including the local Troll Museum. Trolls play a crucial role in Norwegian folklore and legend and this brilliant museum explains why while also introducing visitors to many of its most famous troll-related tales. Alternatively, the Polar Museum details the expeditions, adventures and everyday lives of Arctic explorers from the 17th century to the modern day.

Port Visit

With a second day to explore Tromsø before the ship resumes its exploration of the mighty Norwegian fjords, it’s up to you whether you head ashore or take it easy and make the most of the onboard entertainment and leisure facilities.

If you do head into Tromsø, the Polaria Arctic Experience Centre boasts a fantastic arctic aquarium. Designed to help visitors learn about how animals, fish, plants, and people live side-by-side in the Arctic, it’s also home to bearded seals and other unique wildlife. If you just want to get a feel for the town and enjoy the local cafes, bars and restaurants, the Storgatta central shopping street is where you’ll find all the action. Finally, excursions to the Tromsø cable car are also possible, though the gondolas aren’t accessible for all travellers.

Onboard Activities & Classes

Cunard offers an extraordinary array of onboard activities and classes for those passengers looking to expand their horizons and try something new. These include painting or photography workshops designed for all levels and abilities, as well as mixology classes for anyone who fancies trying their hand at cocktail-making.

The Cunard Insights program brings a whole host of inspiring, informative and entertaining guest speakers to the Queen Elizabeth. Whether you’re attending a talk from a highly successful Olympic athlete, listening to a polar explorer recount expeditions in the Arctic tundra, or learning more about the origins of one of your cruise destinations from a renowned historian, Cunard Insights never fails to fascinate.

Port Visit

Norway’s second city, Bergen, is a remarkable port that combines breathtaking natural surroundings with a culturally rich and vibrant town centre. Nestled among seven mountains and situated at the heart of a labyrinth network of fjords, it was an influential trading port for much of its past, as reflected in the UNESCO World Heritage Site Bryggen wharf, where colourful wooden buildings line the waterfront.

The city fish market is a popular destination, as delicious seafood is guaranteed, while the Bergen Maritime Museum offers a glimpse into the city’s historic significance and is accessible throughout. The Fløyen Funicular Railway is also wheelchair accessible and takes visitors 320 metres up above the city to Fløyen. However, Limitless Travellers will need to arrange this independently.

Port Visit

Land ahoy! Once a Viking stronghold, Stavanger is famed for the beautiful wooden homes that line the streets of the historic city centre. The port is a flat, 10-minute walk from the city centre and there are plenty of local restaurants and bars close by, making it a great opportunity to sample deliciously authentic Norwegian cuisine.

The city market is the place to pick up mementoes, while the imposing Stavanger Cathedral is Norway’s oldest, and the picturesque Blue Promenade is fantastic for a post-lunch stroll or roll. The wheelchair-accessible Hop-On, Hop-Off bus tours several of Stavanger’s main attractions but there are limited spaces and Limitless Travellers will need to book independently to guarantee a place.

Sailing Home

By now, you will have spent a few days exploring the Queen Elizabeth and enjoying the facilities, activities and entertainment. But we guarantee there are still things you’re yet to see, do or find. Have you visited the onboard library? Sampled the finest steaks at The Verandah? Learned how to take the perfect holiday snap in one of the Queen Elizabeth’s brilliant photography workshops?

As we make our way back to Southampton, this is a great opportunity to check out those parts of the Queen Elizabeth you’re yet to see or return to your favourite spots. Or just relax in total comfort and reminisce about the places you’ve seen over the course of your holiday. Have a chat with your Tour Manager in the morning and organise the perfect final day.

Disembark & Home Drop-Off

Following your final breakfast aboard the ship, the Limitless team will assist with check-out. The ship’s crew will take down your bags, and we’ll help you disembark, make sure you reach your pick-up, and say our farewells. Your transfer will then get you home, dropping you off at your front door.

We can’t wait to see you on your next Limitless holiday!
