12 Night Cruise sailing from Harwich roundtrip aboard Discovery.
The 20,186 grt Discovery has eight passenger decks, is stabilised and air conditioned, and is the perfect size for accessing more remote ports of call. In preparation for her debut CMV programme, Discovery is undergoing extensive refurbishment. Facilities include the Carousel Lounge, where you may enjoy colourful floor shows performed by our artistic show-team or the talents of one of our guest entertainers. With its panoramic views, Palm Court is a delightful venue to relax and watch the world sail by or to chat with fellow passengers after another wonderful day ashore. By contrast, the Discovery Lounge is the place to be for late night cabaret and to dance the night away. Discovery offers traditional two sitting dining in the Seven Continents Restaurant or, as an alternative and subject to weather conditions, buffet style meals at the Lido. In addition, Discovery provides a shopping gallery, internet centre, a cinema/lecture lounge, card room and well stocked library. Be pampered with a massage or sauna, make use of the hairdressing and beauty facilities, or work out in the gym. She offers extensive deck areas, two swimming pools, two whirlpools and a pool bar.
Cruise Overview:
This circumnavigation of Iceland, the legendary 'Land of Ice and Fire', will take you to a spectacular country of steaming geysers, geothermal pools, dramatic waterfalls, ice caps and active volcanoes. Enjoy an overnight stay at the fascinating capital of Reykjavik and a call at Lerwick in the scenic Shetland Islands.
A day is spent enjoying life on board ship before cruising the waters of the Westmann Islands where you may spot whales from the deck. On to Iceland and Reykjavik, the world's northernmost capital, lovingly preserved with wooden houses. Nearby are the stunning Gulfoss Falls and the mineral rich bathing waters of the Blue Lagoon, Reykjavik's steaming geothermal springs. At Isafjördur the sheer basalt cliff of Latrabjarg rises from the sea, home to puffins and other seabirds. And from Akureyri, there is an awesome landscape of spectacular volcanoes, waterfalls, canyons and geysers to explore. Your final Icelandic stop is the picturesque little town of Seydisfjördur with its nearby Lagarfljot Lake, home to a mythical monster. Torshavn, in the Faroe Islands, is a unique town where the old part is still made up of small wooden houses covered with turf roofs. Your last call is Lerwick, in the Shetland Islands, gateway to a land of rugged scenery, traditional crafts (including the famous Fair Isle knitwear) and Norse heritage.
