2 Night Cruise sailing from Belfast roundtrip aboard Boudicca.

A truly world class cruise ship with a light and airy design, Boudicca's scale will create a sense of warmth and welcome from the moment you embark. Her large windows will bring light to the subtle and elegant decor of the unconfined lounges, restaurants and public areas.

The essence of cruising is learning the art of relaxation, and time is in generous supply as you take life at your own pace. An early morning swim, a mid-morning coffee, attend informative port lectures, or settle down in a quiet corner with a good book.

In the evening, relax and be entertained in the lounge where a shimmering stage backdrop highlights spectacular cabarets. Port lectures, classical music and dancing take place on most days, so there is something to suit everyone.

Highlights of this cruise:

Belfast
Belfast is the capital of Northern Ireland, part of the United Kingdom and the second largest city in the island of Ireland after Dublin, the capital of Eire (Republic Of Ireland). Situated at the mouth of the River Lagan on Belfast Lough, Belfast is surrounded by low hills.

After years of violence and political unrest ,in recent years the center has been polished up, and it is a pleasure to wander its pedestrianized lanes, to shop in its upscale arcades, to linger in its historic pubs and to dine in its excellent restaurants.

The city is easily divided into walkable quarters: the City Center spreads out from around the impressive, domed City Hall building and bustling Donegall Square. This is the best place for shopping, particularly along Donegall Place, which extends north from the square, onto Royal Avenue. Bedford Street, which travels south from the Donegall Square, becomes Dublin Road, which, in turn, leads south to the University Quarter, the leafy area around Queen's University. This is where you'll find the Botanic Gardens, art galleries and museums, as well as a buzzing nightlife scene. Heading north from Donegall Place, it's a short distance to the Cathedral Quarter, which surrounds Donegall Street, and holds, as the name implies, the city's most important cathedrals, as well as many vast Victorian warehouses. Finally there's the Golden Mile -- the area around Great Victoria Street beyond Bradbury Place. It's considered the city's best address for restaurants and pubs.

The sectarian areas, with the famous I.R.A. and Protestant murals, are just to the west of the city center. The most famous of these are on the Shankill and Falls roads. It's perfectly safe to drive the roads and take photos yourself, or you could take one of the Black Cab tours if you want a guide to explain what it all means.

Liverpool
Liverpool is a major city and metropolitan borough in Merseyside, in North West England, along the eastern side of the Mersey Estuary. It is fast becoming one of Europe's most popular city break destinations. Already famous as the birthplace of The Beatles, the city's other cultural assets are justifiably touted as some of the finest in Europe. With more theatres, museums and galleries than any other UK city outside London, Liverpool's history as one of the world's great ports has left a remarkable legacy of art and architecture that gives it a distinctive look and unique atmosphere.

Liverpool is also one of the world's great sporting cities with horse racing at Aintree and Haydock, 40 golf courses - seven of which are Championship standard, including the Royals Birkdale and Lytham, not to mention Liverpool and Everton FC. So if it's Strawberry Fields, Premiership football or Europe's finest culture you're looking for, it has to be Liverpool.
