Southampton is a historical port city located in Hampshire county, southern England. A popular city in its own right, with attractions including the Tudor House, the stunning gardens of Mottisfont Abbey, and more, most of its appeal is held in its status as your gateway to the metropolis of London. Most cruise lines visiting Southampton will start or end their cruise here, or will offer excursions to explore nearby London. There you can enjoy everything from history to culture, cuisine and everything in between. The Tower of London, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey and a whole lot more await.

Belfast is the capital of Northern Ireland and is fast becoming a European cultural capital. The city is well-known for its connections to the Titanic. The impressive Titanic Belfast opened in 2012 and charts Belfast's rise as an industrial superpower, and showcases the huge slipways where the vessel was built. Belfast City Hall, open since 1906 stands at the centre of the city and on sunny days the surrounding grounds become a popular picnic spot. Wander the waterfront to discover Belfast's stunning Victorian architecture and great spots to eat, drink and listen to music.

Home to the Beatles and football, the historic port city of Liverpool is located in north-western England and since becoming a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004 and was 'European Capital of Culture' in 2008, it has become one of the UK's major tourist destinations. Liverpool is mainly known for its sport and music scene. Anfield, home of Liverpool FC, is a must see for any sports fans. Music lovers should head straight to the Cavern Club where the Beatles played over 300 times and music history was made. Another must-see is the Royal Albert Dock. Dating back to 1846, the dock is now a major tourist destination and how to restaurants, cafes and museums.
