Marco Polo

The 22,080grt Bahamian flagged Marco Polo, with her handsome traditional profile, beautiful teak decks and distinctive dark blue hull is a fully stabilised and air conditioned classic ocean liner, extensively rebuilt in 1993 for the discerning premium cruise market. She can accommodate up to 820 guests and has eight passenger decks, serviced by three main lobbies and four lifts.

Her wide range of public facilities include the impressive Waldorf Restaurant offering traditional two sitting fixed time dining option and, as an alternative more informal experience, the stylish Marco's Restaurant. There are five principal lounge areas, the Magellan Deck offers the theatre style Marco Polo Lounge, the elegant Captain's Club, a prefect venue for pre-dinner cocktails with the resident pianist; the relaxing Palm Garden, a quiet spot with wonderful panoramic ocean view; and the stylish Columbus Lounge where the head barman will soon get to know your favourite drink. Completing the quintet is Scott's Bar, an ideal spot for night owls, located on Amundsen Deck.

Other amenities include the ship's attractive well stocked Livingston Library, the Nansen Card Room, an Internet Cafe, a spacious shopping arcade and photo gallery, the beautifully appointed Jade Wellness Centre, which offers hairdressing & beauty treatments, fitness and exercise equipment, and sauna and massage facilities. There is an outdoor swimming pool, three whirlpools and a medical centre. In addition, and in keeping with her heritage, the Amundsen Deck offers a traditional walk around promenade. There is a good selection of comfortable cabin accommodation with 70% of cabins having an ocean view.
