Aurora
Our smallest ship Aurora is a big hit with guests who return year after year for her cosy comfort. She’s a stylish lady with her towering 35-foot sculpture in her atrium and artworks adding detail to each venue. The tiered decks shaping the Terrace Pool add a beautiful backdrop to your sunbathing. And if the weather doesn’t play ball, Crystal Pool’s retractable roof comes to the rescue.

Itinerary

Southampton (for London), England
Departs 04:30 pm.
The south of England boasts a dramatic coastline that encloses some of the most beautiful countryside in Britain. The landscape of hills and heaths, downs and forests, valleys and dales, is without rival. Southampton serves as your gateway to the countryside - and to a wide variety of historic sites, national landmarks and charming. And of course, London is a two-hour drive by modern highway. The United Kingdom's premier passenger ship port, Southampton was home for many years to the great transatlantic liners of yesteryear.

Hamburg, Germany (for Berlin)
Arrives 07:00 am, departs 11:59 pm.
Germany's leading seaport, Hamburg is the gateway to Berlin - and a fascinating place to visit in it own right. Situated on the banks of the Elbe, the city is built over the water and boasts more than 2,100 bridges, more bridges than in Venice and Amsterdam combined. Established by Charlemagne in the 9th century, Hamburg has managed to preserve its Gothic old quarter. The city's other attractions range from St. Pauli, the ribald red-light district, to the fashionable shops of Jungfernsteig and the St. Michael's Church, a masterpiece of Baroque architecture.

Zeebrugge (for Brussels/Bruges), Belgium
Arrives 08:00 am, departs 06:00 pm.
Zeebrugge is your gateway to Brussels. The capital of Belgium, Brussels is really two cities in one. Old Brussels is a city of superb Baroque architecture with ornate guildhalls, cobbled lanes and one of the finest squares in Europe. New Brussels is the modern city, the capital of the European Union, the home of NATO and the seat of the European Atomic Energy Community. It is a city of fascinating contrasts.
