Lifestyle onboard your Cunard cruise ship

Daytime cruising on Queen Elizabeth 2

On Queen Elizabeth 2, you’ve got plenty of time and opportunity to enjoy old hobbies or take up new ones. Play bridge, take a dance class, practise your golf drives or learn how to water colour.

If you’re in reflective mood, grab a book from the cruise ship’s extensive library or stay on for their regular book readings, lectures and author book signings.

Prefer to take it easy? Then head off to the Cunard Royal Spa for a revitalising treatment or enjoy a long, cool drink and lazy afternoon, lounging by the pool.

Your evening cruise entertainment

Evenings positively sparkle on Queen Elizabeth 2. Enjoy pre-dinner drinks in the Funnel Bar with fantastic ocean views or maybe sip cocktails into the night in the Chart Bar, with a pianist or harpist playing gentle music to entertain you.

Fancy a movie? You’ll find all the latest releases at the cruise ship cinema. Then there’s cabaret, musicals and concerts in the Grand Lounge or dancing until the early hours in the Grand Ballroom.

Dining on Queen Elizabeth 2

Each Queen Elizabeth 2 stateroom is matched with a reserved table in a formal sea-view restaurant, offering a wide range of mouth-watering dishes and excellent vintage wines.

If you don’t fancy dressing up for dinner, the Lido is an informal eatery that provides international cuisine with a different theme most evenings. It’s also the venue for your cruise ship’s magnificent midnight buffets.

Travelling with the family? You can grab a bite for the kids at the Pavilion. It serves special meals for children every evening so you can enjoy an intimate dinner just for two whenever you please.
