This was a great short 'Culinary Cruise' on Queen Elizabeth. We enjoyed excellent service and met up with some wonderful people. We particularly enjoyed the presentations by some of Australia's top chefs and food and wine experts and meeting with them.

The smoothest boarding ever, even with Covid protocols. Very well managed
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
As we were in a Penthouse Suite for this short cruise, we ate in Queen's Grill Restaurant for all meals. This time the service was excellent and the food top quality. We were seated at a prime table for 7 guests and were fortunate to join a very convivial group. This was a huge contrast to an earlier cruise on the same ship.

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Penthouse Suite 5106 was spacious and well designed. It was always kept in immaculate condition.
We had been on excursions from Burnie on previous cruises, so this time just used the shuttle and explored the small city itself. A warm welcome as the bus came to the centre from the Lady Mayor of the city. She came onto every bus and greeted the arrivals. Says a lot about the friendliness of the locals.
