Today marks the start of an extraordinary adventure. Going from home to holiday couldn't be easier with our door-to-door pick up service that is free of charge for journeys up to 125 miles. On arrival at Southampton our team will be waiting to greet you, providing support with check-in and boarding. They'll then be time to explore the ship before we meet for dinner as a group.
After enjoying a delicious breakfast today is the perfect time to explore the ship and check out all the Apex has to offer as we make our way to the Norwegian Fjords. With many pools, lounges, a state-of-the-art theatre, and unique activity classes, the choice is yours for however you wish to enjoy your day at sea.
It's the moment you've been waiting for - you first sight of the Norwegian Fjords! Located at the end of one of Norway’s most beautiful fjords, Nordfjordeid is a picturesque, hidden gem. Here you'll have the opportunity to disembark and explore the local sights, or you can remain on the ship to soak up the views.
Today you will arrive in Flåm, nestled in a tributary of the world's longest and deepest fjord. Surrounded by steep mountainsides, roaring waterfalls, and deep valleys, you’ll experience a one-of-a-kind encounter with nature. The epic majesty of Flåm’s dense green mountains dwarfs even the grandest of cruise ships, and the glass-calm water that surrounds the town makes for a picture-perfect nordic scene.
Geiranger is a picturesque village situated at the head of the Geirangerfjord, one of the most famous and breathtaking fjords in Norway. It is remote even by Norwegian standards, with a unique rugged beauty. Winding your way through the Geiranger Fjord feels like the entrance to a secret world, protected by massive, snow-capped mountains on either side. Geiranger is famous for its numerous waterfalls, the most iconic of which is the Seven Sisters waterfall with its seven separate streams plunging from the cliffs into the fjord.
After a busy few days exploring, today you will be able to sit back, relax, and continue to make the most of the excellent facilities onboard the Apex as we sail towards Belgium. It could be the perfect day to book in for a spa treatment, take part in a cookery class, or sip refreshing drinks in one of the many bars boasting stunning sea views.
Gracefully combining past and present, as well as Flemish and French, this medieval city is the stuff of fairytale and storybooks. Spend a delightful day exploring Bruges with a seemingly endless supply of charm, culture, and beauty. Foodies will revel in the eclectic dining options at local bistros. Dig into sweet Belgian waffles and stop by the renowned chocolate boutiques. If sampling the fresh fish of this country is on your agenda, the fish market located here is one of the biggest in Europe.
After your last breakfast, we’ll help you check-out. Your bags will be taken down by the wonderful Celebrity crew, while our care team will be on-hand to assist you in disembarking the ship without hassle. From here you will join the transfers back to the pick-up points, relaxed, rejuvenated and ready for your next Limitless adventure. We can’t wait to see you again!
