Welcome Aboard

Here you can explore over 183 years of Cunard history. Find out what makes the current Cunard Queens, Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria, Queen Elizabeth and Queen Anne such special ships. This website contains historical profiles, photographs and videos aimed to teach you more about historic Cunard Line, as well as the great Ocean Liners of days gone by. Some of my favourite historic ships featured here include RMS Queen Mary, RMS Queen Elizabeth and QE2, but the site also features many amazing liners such as Britannia, Etruria, Campania, Lusitania, Mauretania & Aquitania to name just a few.
