Queen Elizabeth

Top Destinations

In 2019 the Queen Elizabeth started cruising the spectacular Alaska which quickly became a hit with the guests. The ship sets sail in Vancouver and visits some of the most scenic ports in the region.

Another reason we all love the Queen Elizabeth is that it regularly homeports Down Under. So starting around November and ending in March every year, you can jump on board the legendary ship and explore your own backyard in style.
