The infinite variety of street life, the nooks and crannies of the medieval Barri Gòtic, the ceramic tile and stained glass of Art Nouveau facades, the art and music, the throb of street life, the food (ah, the food!)—one way or another, Barcelona will find a way to get your full attention. The capital of Catalonia is a banquet for the senses, with its beguiling mix of ancient and modern architecture, tempting cafés and markets, and sun-drenched Mediterranean beaches. A stroll along La Rambla and through waterfront Barceloneta, as well as a tour of Gaudí's majestic Sagrada Famíliaand his other unique creations, are part of a visit to Spain's second-largest city. Modern art museums and chic shops call for attention, too. Barcelona's vibe stays lively well into the night, when you can linger over regional wine and cuisine at buzzing tapas bars.

Arrival Time: Early Morning; Depart Time: Evening
Valencia, Spain's third-largest municipality, is a proud city with a thriving nightlife and restaurant scene, quality museums, and spectacular contemporary architecture, juxtaposed with a thoroughly charming historic quarter, making it a popular destination year in year out. During the Civil War, it was the last seat of the Republican Loyalist government (1935–36), holding out against Franco’s National forces until the country fell to 40 years of dictatorship. Today it represents the essence of contemporary Spain—daring design and architecture along with experimental cuisine—but remains deeply conservative and proud of its traditions. Though it faces the Mediterranean, Valencia's history and geography have been defined most significantly by the River Turia and the fertile huerta that surrounds it.The city has been fiercely contested ever since it was founded by the Greeks. El Cid captured Valencia from the Moors in 1094 and won his strangest victory here in 1099: he died in the battle, but his corpse was strapped into his saddle and so frightened the besieging Moors that it caused their complete defeat. In 1102 his widow, Jimena, was forced to return the city to Moorish rule; Jaume I finally drove them out in 1238. Modern Valencia was best known for its frequent disastrous floods until the River Turia was diverted to the south in the late 1950s. Since then the city has been on a steady course of urban beautification. The lovely bridges that once spanned the Turia look equally graceful spanning a wandering municipal park, and the spectacularly futuristic Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències (City of Arts and Sciences), most of it designed by Valencia-born architect Santiago Calatrava, has at last created an exciting architectural link between this river town and the Mediterranean. If you're in Valencia, an excursion to Albufera Nature Park is a worthwhile day trip.

Considered Corsica’s primary commercial and cultural hub, the largest city and regional capital of Ajaccio is situated on the west coast of the island, approximately 644 km (400 miles) southeast of Marseille, France. Founded in 1492, vestiges of ancient Corsica in this ville impériale revolve around the city’s most famous son, Napoléon Bonaparte, whose family home—now the national museum Maison Bonaparte—pays tribute to the emperor’s historical influence.Remnants from what was originally a 12th-century Genoese colony are still visible around the Old Town near the imposing citadel and watchtower. Perfect for exploring, the luminous seaside city surrounded by snowcapped mountains and pretty beaches offers numerous sites, eateries, side streets, and a popular harbor, where sailboats and fishing vessels moor in the picturesque Tino Rossi port lined with well-established restaurants and cafés serving fresh local fare.

Arrival Time: Early Morning; Depart Time: Evening
Livorno is a gritty city with a long and interesting history. In the early Middle Ages it alternately belonged to Pisa and Genoa. In 1421 Florence, seeking access to the sea, bought it. Cosimo I (1519–74) started construction of the harbor in 1571, putting Livorno on the map. After Ferdinando I de' Medici (1549–1609) proclaimed Livorno a free city, it became a haven for people suffering from religious persecution; Roman Catholics from England and Jews and Moors from Spain and Portugal, among others, settled here. The Quattro Mori (Four Moors), also known as the Monument to Ferdinando I, commemorates this. (The statue of Ferdinando I dates from 1595, the bronze Moors by Pietro Tacca from the 1620s.)In the following centuries, and particularly in the 18th, Livorno boomed as a port. In the 19th century the town drew a host of famous Britons passing through on their grand tours. Its prominence continued up to World War II, when it was heavily bombed. Much of the town's architecture, therefore, postdates the war, and it's somewhat difficult to imagine what it might have looked like before. Livorno has recovered from the war, however, as it's become a huge point of departure for container ships, as well as the only spot in Tuscany for cruise ships to dock for the day.Most of Livorno's artistic treasures date from the 17th century and aren't all that interesting unless you dote on obscure baroque artists. Livorno's most famous native artist, Amedeo Modigliani (1884–1920), was of much more recent vintage. Sadly, there's no notable work by him in his hometown.There may not be much in the way of art, but it's still worth strolling around the city. The Mercato Nuovo, which has been around since 1894, sells all sorts of fruits, vegetables, grains, meat, and fish. Outdoor markets nearby are also chock-full of local color. The presence of Camp Darby, an American military base just outside town, accounts for the availability of many American products.If you have time, Livorno is worth a stop for lunch or dinner at the very least.

Italy's vibrant capital lives in the present, but no other city on earth evokes its past so powerfully. For over 2,500 years, emperors, popes, artists, and common citizens have left their mark here. Archaeological remains from ancient Rome, art-stuffed churches, and the treasures of Vatican City vie for your attention, but Rome is also a wonderful place to practice the Italian-perfected il dolce far niente, the sweet art of idleness. Your most memorable experiences may include sitting at a caffè in the Campo de' Fiori or strolling in a beguiling piazza.
Queen Victoria will delight you with her special appeal, where elegance and unique features combine seamlessly with outstanding hospitality. You’ll discover an extraordinary way to see the world.
Queen Victoria
From casual bites to haute cuisine, each day on Queen Victoria unlocks a new culinary adventure. Enjoy the timeless elegance of her fine dining restaurants, the array of dishes at her Lido buffet, or the chance to indulge in hearty pub fare at the Golden Lion pub. Where will you eat first?
As with all Cunard ships, Queen Victoria operates a stateroom-affiliated dining system, whereby your main dining room corresponds to your stateroom grade: Britannia, Britannia Club, Princess Grill or Queens Grill. Guests can dine in their main dining room for all meals of the day, and it's all included in the cruise fare. However these are just the beginnings of what your tastebuds can discover on board Queen Victoria. Read on as we introduce six of our favourite culinary experiences available to guests on Queen Victoria, wherever she sails.

Alternatively, opt for one of our chef’s speciality sharing dishes (orderable in advance at breakfast or lunchtimes). From beef wellington to rack of lamb, the choice is truly indulgent. Each dish (along with select offerings on our menu) is finished and presented to you table-side, only heightening the sense of theatre that’s a signature of Queens Grill dining.
Dining at the Queens Grill restaurant is exclusive to Queens Grill guests and included within your Cunard fare. The restaurant operates relaxed dress by day and smart attire (jacket optional) for dinner service after 6.00pm, except on Gala Evenings when we invite you to dress in black tie.

Welcoming diners for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, taking your seat at the linen-dressed tables, always feels like an event. You’ll find a new a la carte lunch and dinner menu to temp you each day of your cruise, always with a choice of meat, fish, and vegan options.

If you find yourself seeking an elevated gourmet experience on board Queen Victoria, look no further than The Verandah. This intimate dining venue offers an extraordinary gastronomic experience led by the simplicity of exceptional ingredients. From tiered platters of fruit de mer, laden with oysters, lobster, and crab, to succulent Black Angus and Wagyu steaks, accompanied by your choice of steak knife, each mouthful at The Verandah is a culinary masterpiece. Feast on a symphony of the finest ingredients sourced from land and sea. Will you make this gastronomic discovery a destination on your next Queen Victoria cruise?
When you're in the mood for a more informal dining experience, The Lido buffet is sure to appeal.

A journey of sophistication and indulgence awaits you at Queen Victoria’s bars and lounges. From classic cocktails and fine wines to global beers and spirits, here’s nine places to raise a glass on board our legendary vessel.
Resplendent with its brushed gold accents, the Chart Room’s symmetrical interiors offer a timeless nod to the romance and geometry of Art Deco design. You’ll find this striking bar directly off the Grand Lobby, opposite Steakhouse at The Verandah on Deck 2. It’s a wonderful venue to visit on Gala Evenings when the sight of tuxedo-attired gentlemen and women in evening gowns evokes the spirit of a bygone era. The signature drink selection includes a range of custom cocktails inspired by the Zodiac. Ask the bartender to mix you up your birth sign or defy convention and let your tastebuds choose.
For a Queen Victoria bar with the best sea views, look no further than the Commodore Club. A sophisticated lounge with picture height windows, the Commodore Club offers ocean panoramas like nowhere else on board. You’ll find this popular bar at the bow of Deck 10, above the Bridge. While a full drinks service is offered, the speciality here is a selection of Commodore cocktails, inspired by seven of our fleet’s most decorated Captains. Canapés are served on early evening visits and the atmosphere here is always one of elegance, with soothing background music courtesy of a live pianist.
When the rest of the ship is winding down, Queen Victoria’s Yacht Club can always be counted on to keep the party going. Open for Insights talks, choir rehearsals, and dance classes during the day, this nautical themed lounge-bar takes on a whole new persona come nightfall. The home of karaoke and late-night DJs on board, you’ll find the decks spinning at the Yacht Club long after our other bars and lounges have called it a night. Sink into one of the low-slung sofas and tap along to the sounds filling the air or join your fellow revellers on the dance floor, putting all inhibitions aside in true holiday spirit.
You’ll find all the warmth and conviviality of a traditional English pub at Queen Victoria’s Golden Lion. With hearty food and beers on draught, a visit here feels just as welcoming as stepping into your local. Relaxed dress is welcome at all times of day, even on Gala Evenings, and there’s live music and pub quizzes to keep you entertained. Well, who doesn’t love a bit of friendly competition?
