CRUISE WITH JOOLS HOLLAND

Our ships are smaller. But they are spacious throughout with all-balcony cabins and generously-sized lounges, bars and a full wraparound deck.

The theatre and lounge are just two of the ships’ entertainment spaces. Day and night, you will be spoilt for choice, with a full line up of talks, crafts and activities. Enjoy your included drinks in the stunning North or South Cape Bar, relax in The Library, take part in sociable quizzes, or listen to the classical music recitals in The Living Room and a range of music performances in the Supper Club.

THE DAILY PROGRAMME

THE FITNESS CENTRE

Both Spirit of Adventure and Spirit of Discovery have their very own theatre at sea. The Playhouse o ers plush seating for 444 guests, and showcases colourful performances every evening, along with cinema screenings, live music and even matinee shows on sea days.

LIFE ON BOARD OUR SISTERNEWSHIPS

THE LIDO In the centre of your ship, The Lido is the main outside space. It is a beautiful area with a generously sized swimming pool, twin hot tubs, and plenty of sun loungers and shaded areas. It’s also the place for ﬁsh and chips, ice cream and drinks from the bar, all waiter served while enjoying a taste of the British seaside.

THE BRITANNIA LOUNGE Found on both our ships, the main lounge is a large, double-height venue, with stunning panoramic windows o ering views all around. Order drinks from the lounge bar and enjoy a range of activities during the day, while in the evenings take your seat for entertainment from singers and bands.

Indulging in afternoon tea is another ﬁne cruising tradition that we take very seriously. Every afternoon you are aboard the ship, you are invited to join us in the main Dining Room to enjoy a selection of ﬁnger sandwiches, pastries and cakes. All are freshly made by our expert chefs.

The Fitness Centre has a range of hi-tech equipment, and a ﬁtness expert is also on hand to help you get the best workout. Along with the gym, there is also a digital golf simulator, and more traditional deck games.

SPACIOUS OUTSIDE AND IN

One of the biggest features of our ships is just how much outside space there is to enjoy. You can walk in the fresh air along the full wraparound promenade, stroll around four times and you will walk a mile! Later, why not watch the sun set while sipping a cocktail on the Terrace, an elegant secret garden overlooking the back of each ship.

THE PLAYHOUSE THEATRE

THE SPA AND SALON

Just announced! Music legend Jools Holland OBE will be returning to Spirit of Discovery for a number of cruises in 2023. He’ll perform live with his band in the ship’s stunning Playhouse theatre. Turn to pages 20, 22, 25, 27, 28 and 33 to see the itineraries.

MORE AROUNDENTERTAINMENTTHESHIP

AFTERNOON TEA

Every day, we will deliver a Daily Programme to your cabin. Packed with activities, it is your chance to plan what you will do throughout the day and evening. This can include craft classes, classical recitals, quizzes, and cookery demonstrations.

The Grand Dining Room, Spirit of Discovery Expect ﬁne cuisine East to West, Spirit of Discovery Enjoy ﬁrst-class service in every restaurant 12

Deciding when and where to dine is all part of the boutique cruise experience. Enjoy ﬁne cuisine in the main Dining Room or Grill, or for dinner, reserve a table at one of your ship’s speciality restaurants completely free of charge.

EXTRA-SPECIAL SPECIALITY DINING

COAST TO COAST, OUR FIRST EVER SEAFOOD RESTAURANT

EAST TO WEST, SPICED -UP DINING

Enjoy British and International dishes in The Dining Room, our ships’ main restaurant. They serve a variety of culinary choices at every mealtime, ﬁnely cooked by our team of chefs. Here, open seating is standard, so you can arrive, take your seat, and dine whenever you like. Or book a ‘ﬁxed’ table if you’d like the same one for the duration of your cruise. The menu changes every day, and a choice of complimentary house wines are available at lunch and dinner, along with your other all-inclusive drinks.

KHUKURI HOUSE, A NEW TASTE OF THE EAST Spirit of Adventure introduced a world first: a Nepalese restaurant on the ocean wave. Expect fresh flavours that are light and beautifully spiced. Genuine tandoor ovens mean our chefs can create curried meat, fish and vegetable dishes along with authentic Nepalese flatbreads. Saga’s hometown of Folkestone has strong links with the local Gurkha community, and Khukuri House is an ode to this history and heritage.

THE GRILL For a fresh alternative, head to The Grill. This light and airy restaurant gives you the option of a more relaxed dining experience. It o ers even more culinary options, from an irresistible bu et at breakfast to a bespoke lunchtime menu, while it reﬂects the main Dining Room menu at dinner. Just outside this restaurant is the Verandah. Here you can enjoy dine alfresco with stunning ocean views. When the weather’s ﬁne, it’s also the place to enjoy barbecues.

In Spirit of Discovery’s other speciality restaurant, your taste buds will be tantalised by the flavours of the Orient. But East to West is so much more. From sizzling Szechuan beef to five-spiced duck with black tru e, the menu o ers a world of fine dining each evening, impeccably presented. No more than 73 other diners guarantees an intimate, boutique experience every time you visit.

Spirit of Discovery has a seafood restaurant, showcasing modern seafood cuisine: the best of British and locally-sourced ﬁsh and shellﬁsh. Dishes are seasonal, and change according to what’s fresh in the destination you are visiting. Choose from the signature seafood platter to share, along with a range of sauces and accompaniments.

THE SUPPER CLUBS O ering more choice, our ships also have an elegant steakhouse restaurant and music club. But much more than a restaurant, it is another of the ship’s vibrant and fun entertainment venues, the place to enjoy live music and cocktails in the evenings, with resident and guest musicians entertaining until late. On Spirit of Discovery, The Club by Jools has British music legend Jools Holland OBE as its patron.

AMALFI, HIGH-END ITALIAN CUISINE Spirit of Adventure’s second speciality restaurant o ers Italian-style fine dining. Look forward to a mouthwatering menu of Mediterranean dishes, with an emphasis on Tuscan preparation. This includes ‘family-style’ sharing platters of antipasti along with pasta, risotto, parmigiana and arancini. Plus, a daily specials board to give an Amalfi twist to locally sourced fish and meats purchased in port that day.
