The newest ship in the Cunard fleet, Queen Victoria announced its arrival on the water in late 2007. The Queen Victoria is not as big as Queen Mary 2 and is also a cruise liner rather than an ocean liner. However she is the second largest vessel ever constructed for Cunard.
Carrying just over 2,000 passengers, the Queen Victoria is a classic Cunard ship and weighs in at 90,000 tonnes. With 7 restaurants and 13 bars on board there are plenty of places for guests to wine and dine. As well as this there is 3 swimming pools for passengers to relax and a theatre and ballroom.
Queen Victoria sails all over the world and offers Cunard’s class and distinction throughout. Originally intended to be a new vessel for Holland America, Carnival Corporation changed their plans are designated her a Cunard ship in late 2003.
Cunard began work on the Queen Victoria in 2004 and she made her maiden voyage in December 2007. With amenities spread out over her 11 decks there is plenty to do on board and all the typical Cunard staterooms and suites will be found on board Queen Victoria.
