The Transatlantic cruise is one of the great journeys. Travelling to, or from, New York aboard the Queen Mary 2 is the ultimate way to do it. Synonymous with elegance and sophistication, she is, for many, the most magnificent cruise ship ever made.
ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE
The Queen Mary 2 leaves all other ships in her wake. Put on your fineries and enjoy a classic evening’s entertainment of theatre followed by a sumptuous meal.
GET ARTY
New York’s Museum of Modern Art, or MoMA as it’s affectionately termed, exhibits cutting edge art. It also houses plenty of twentieth-century masterpieces including Warhol’s Campbell’s Soup Cans and Edward Hopper’s Gas.
AMAZING HISTORY
Philadelphia is within 100 miles from New York and is steeped in history. Take the opportunity to visit the city and see the iconic Liberty Bell and the Declaration of Independence.
SPLASH OUT
With its array of high-end brands, department store Bloomingdale’s is a great place to whittle away an afternoon. You could even emerge with one of their famous ‘Little Brown Bags’, a perfect gift for those back home.
GET ACTIVE
One of the best ways to discover New York’s Central Park is on a bicycle. Pass by the park’s best-known attractions, such as Strawberry Fields and Shakespeare Garden.
DELICIOUS CUISINE
The Queen Mary 2 has 10 dining venues to choose from. A meal at the Todd English restaurant makes for a special occasion.
TRY YOUR LUCK
Spend an evening at the casino on the high seas. With 13 gaming tables and over 120 slot machines it could finance a serious spending spree in NYC!
TIME OUT
Head to the ship’s Canyon Ranch SpaClub for some pampering. A Stone Massage is the perfect complement to a day spent working out, playing golf or shopping on-board.
SHOPPING DELIGHTS
You’ll find a number of high-end retail outlets on-board the Queen Mary 2, including Hermes and Harrod’s. And as you don’t need to pay duty-free, you may be pleasantly surprised at the prices.
TAKE THE PHOTO
From the viewing gallery at the top of the Rockefeller Center you’ll experience unparalleled views of the New York skyline.
