New York, Iceland & Queen Mary 2

What a magical combination this trip brings with stays in stunning Iceland, New York, the city that never sleeps and then cruise back on the legendary Queen Mother 2 Cunard liner on her Iconic Transatlantic voyage.

You’ll fly from London to Reykjavik in Iceland to stay 2 nights at the new Skuggi Hotel which is right in the heart of the world’s most northern capital. You’ll be right in the midst of the Northern Lights season so why not take a trip out of town, away from the city lights to try and spot these magical lights? Or maybe take a trip around the Golden circle and witness the stunning Gullfoss waterfalls and the spouting Geysirs.

From Iceland you’ll then fly across the Atlantic to New York and spend 2 nights in the Hilton Manhattan East Hotel in the Big Apple. Shop on 5th avenue, catch a show on Broadway, view the city from the Empire State Building, take the Staten Island Ferry across the bay for stunning views of Lady Liberty.

Then it will be time to board the legendary Queen Mary 2 for your Cruise back across the Atlantic to Southampton.
