Creator's Key Takeaways

Ventura ended service in 2008 being christened by Dame Helen Mirren on the 16th of April 2008.

This had to be my favorite pool as you've got some fantastic week views I love sitting around this pool reading a book and enjoying my favorite cocktail.

I think she's still a fantastic ship to cruise on she has lots of features such as her fantastic clamshell bow the Metropolis bar or the wonderful Terrace pool.
