In 2025, we stepped away from our homes and offices for four months to join the inaugural World Voyage of Cunard’s brand-new ship, Queen Anne. This is the complete story of a 107-night journey across 30 ports and 19 countries—a once-in-a-lifetime experience captured entirely on two iPhones.
From the brutal winter seas of the Atlantic to the serene, mesmerising waters of the Great Barrier Reef, we share the reality of life on board Cunard's newest ship. This film isn't just about luxury travel; it’s about the sense of adventure, the history being made by Queen Anne, and the challenge of balancing a global journey with our careers and sanity.
In this film, you’ll experience:
• Iconic Landmarks: Transiting the Panama Canal, arriving in Sydney Harbour, and exploring the streets of Hong Kong.
• Life On Board: A deep dive into the Queen Anne’s unique spaces, from the Library to the first dedicated Asian restaurant, Aji-wa.
• The Highs and Lows: Outrunning Cyclone Alfred in Australia, navigating "heightened security" in pirate-threatened waters, and the frustrating reality of the Africa "fail-fest" with visa and health requirements.
• The Friends You Meet Along The Way: Attending the first-ever wedding on a Queen Anne World Voyage and making lifelong memories with a global community.
Whether you are planning your own world cruise or just looking for an escape, we hope you enjoy seeing the world through our eyes.
