No-Flying
Modern Luxury Norway Cruises from Southampton
7 Nights
Celebrity Apex
Get your holiday off to an immediate start
cruising from Southampton without the need for lengthy airport queues or flight
restrictions.
Norway and the Norwegian Fjords make a
wonderful refreshing break and is one of the most spectacular regions of the
world with a unique mix of culture and jaw dropping scenery of sheer magnitude.
Many would argue that the only way to truly appreciate the dramatic scenery of
the Norwegian Fjords is to sail through them.
Norwegian Fjord cruises allow you to truly appreciate the scale of ice
carved inlets with their spectacular waterfalls. A fjord is formed when a glacier cuts a U-shaped
valley in the surrounding bedrock and most fjords are deeper than the adjacent sea; Sognefjord, Norway, reaches as much as 1,300metres (4,265 ft)
below sea level.
Geiranger Fjord is a UNESCO World Heritage
Site - it is nine miles long and is the most photographed of fjord of them all.
This fjord is surrounded
by the steepest mountains on the entire west coast, it is very narrow and has
foaming waterfalls (Seven Sisters and Suitor) which plunge into the fjord from
jagged peaks. A fjord is formed when a
glacier cuts a U-shaped valley in the surrounding bedrock and most fjords are deeper than the adjacent sea; Sognefjord, Norway, reaches as much as 1,300metres (4,265 ft)
below sea level.
Perhaps choose and
extended 12 to 14 night cruise for an Arctic Circle and a surreal land of the
midnight sun experience where the sun never quite sets even at midnight.
Celebrity Apex is the second of the acclaimed Edge class of ship. This is a ship that wows
at every turn from the infinite balcony staterooms with large marble bathrooms
to the ultra-cool Eden chill out lounge accessed through a dark grotto of
golden trees, to the futuristic rooftop terrace. Celebrity seems to have
replaced the conventional with amazing taking you into the future of cruising.
There are 12 dining options on board, a gallery or relaxing poolside cabanas,
an asymmetrical pool area and the Magic Carpet moving entertainment space up
and down the outside edge of the ship. Seeing is believing and these Edge class
ships are worthy of the prices they rightly command- not just as a cruise experience
but an ultra-modern holiday experience.
The
resort deck pool area features an outward facing asymmetrical terraced pool
deck space that make ocean views and landscapes the focal point while lounging
poolside. Take a dip in the75 foot lap pool or relax in one of the spectacular
martini glass shaped hot tubs perched elegantly on a slender stem.
The
Magic Carpet is a cantilevered deck space on the side of the ship making these
ships profile distinctive from miles away. At the summit of the ship on deck 16
the Magic caret becomes the ultimate specialty dining restaurant offering a
special Dinner on the Edge. Down to deck 14 Magic Carpet becomes an extension of
the main pool area making the perfect place for breath-taking views, tantalizing
drinks and live music. On deck 5 Magic
Carpet extends the ship’s restaurants into the most amazing al-fresco seating
imaginable for 100 diners. At its lowest position on deck 2 Magic Carpet is a key component to
Destination Getaway, a luxury embarkation area where you will be whisked away
on sleek edge launches for adventures ashore.
The
Rooftop Garden is one of the most imaginative and carefree outdoor spaces
possible. A living, urban playscape perfect for slowing down, wandering,
daydreaming movie watching or outdoor dining. It is tended to by a resident horticulturalist
and is the perfect place to enjoy interactive games and activities throughout
the day. Enjoy the not to be missed evening entertainment where food and film
merge during ‘A Taste of Film’ and pop-up performances from the unexpected
treetop sculptures. Perhaps dine in the Rooftop Garden Grill for a tasty
selection of burgers, brisket and BBQ specialities.
Eden
is awesome in a cool futuristic way changing from a chilled café in the morning
surrounded by three stories of glass and plants, to playful activities in the
afternoon. Then at night it comes alive with specialty dining and a cocktail
bar, where performance artists surround you at every level. Even the smell
changes at night so you are truly immersed in the occasion of the evening!
