Ventura is the superliner designed for Britain. Inspirational throughout, she displays over 7,000 specially commissioned artworks plus many pieces created by eminent British designer Nick Munro. Even her staterooms have a stylish look and feel.
Fun and innovative, Ventura is the perfect cruise ship for families, couples and those new to cruising. Her many unique features means she offers fantastic choice. Including a contemporary circus school. Scalextric at Sea. An endless pool. A sensational Latin American showlounge. And a cool jazz bar with floor to ceiling video screens displaying real-time footage of the world's most iconic cities.
When it comes to dining, the choice continues. Ventura has three restaurants serving up exquisite five course menus. The flavours of the Pacific-rim in East, where you can watch your food being cooked. A Spanish tapas bar modelled on the famous Ramblas in Barcelona. A fine dining venue created by Marco Pierre White. And a relaxed family restaurant.
Highlights of this cruise:
About Stavanger
The gateway to Norways spectacularly scenic fjordland, Stavanger is also a town with its own rich heritage as it is regarded as the 'Cradle of the Vikings'. Your ship will dock right next to Gamle Stavanger, the old quarter, with its collection of 200-year-old white wooden houses (considered national heritage monuments in their own right), 12th century cathedral modelled on Winchester Cathedral, markets, craft stores and art galleries.
Look out, too, for the Three Swords monument in the Hafrsfjord rock recalling the Viking sea battle won by King Harald the Fairhair to create Norway as one kingdom back in the 9th century. This is on the way to a recreation of an Iron Age Farm at Jernaldergarden. The other major landmark is a short boat trip away through the delightful Stavanger archipelago to the 2,000ft high Pulpit Rock (Preikestolen).
About Bergen
A former 'European City of Culture' with a string of fascinating art galleries facing its Lille Lungedgardsvann Lake, Bergen cruise port nestles amongst the magnificent mountains strung along Norway's western coastline and is a gateway to Fjordland.
This 13th century Hanseatic - and now World Heritage - city was built on the site of an original Viking settlement and is full of historic sites, the best known of which is Bryggen. A collection of 11th century wooden buildings along the harbourfront, this is a World Heritage Site in its own right and has its own museum to tell its fascinating story.
To enjoy the best views of this picturesque city, take the funicular railway to the top of Mount Flryen, which overlooks both Bergen and the surrounding region.
Also the birthplace of composer Edvard Grieg, Bergen is easily walkable and has a lively fish market and an even better general market along the harbourfront as well as many attractive bars and cafes.
