Queen Mary 2 to visit Namibia
Cunard has released details of its 2012 world voyages on its new Queen Elizabeth and flagship Queen Mary 2.
On sale in Australia from Friday July 16, the new programme features a 107-day journey around the globe on Queen Elizabeth and a 108-day voyage on Queen Mary 2, which will include the liner’s first circumnavigation of Australia.
Between them, the two liners will visit 60 ports across 33 countries, with their voyages including a host of maiden visits such as Queen Mary 2’s first call to the sand dunes of Namibia’s Swakopmund.
In Australia, the ports of Brisbane, Cairns, Darwin and Melbourne will welcome the 2,620-passenger Queen Mary 2 for the first time, while her youngest sister, the 2,092-passenger Queen Elizabeth will make her inaugural calls to Brisbane and Port Douglas.
