Creator's Key Takeaways

sailing on qm2 really is an experience in itself irrespective of the destination that you're traveling to and was a true bucket list ship for me

this has to be my favorite main dining room at Sea as it truly gives the well Factor when you step in here for the first time

this was by far my favorite place to go during SE days as card offers a huge range of lectures as part of their card insights program

the only slight negative of her ocean liner design is the fact that her layout is completely different to that of a cruise ship

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Get to the Queen's Room early for afternoon tea as it is a popular event
✓Visit the upper observation deck at midday to hear the ship's horn following the captain's announcement
✓Try the Britannia Restaurant for breakfast and lunch on sea days for a more relaxed pace
✓Check the schedule for the planetarium shows in Illuminations as they are unique to Cunard

Join me as we explore Cunard's Queen Mary 2, the last Ocean Liner in service today! In this video, I'll tell you all about her public areas and open decks, along with a few lesser known spots as well! Do note that this tour was recorded in July 2022 and as she's had a refit since then, some areas may look a little different. However, I hope you enjoy my video of this unique ship!
