Those guests staying in an accessible cabin will also benefit from Priority Embarkation. We know check-in and boarding can be a nervous experience for some travellers, so Limitless assists with every aspect.

Once aboard the cruise ship, you’ll have a chance to settle into your cabin, explore the ship, and meet your fellow Limitless Travellers. The Limitless Care Team is always available to provide support and ensure your holiday gets off to the best possible start. Then it's time for the New Year's celebrations, with spectacular entertainment and delicious food to welcome 2028 in style.

Day 2 New Year's Day

Onboard Celebrations

After the previous night’s unforgettable celebrations, today is all about starting the New Year as you mean to go on - surrounded by good people and enjoying life to the maximum! Whether you’re feeling a little delicate or in tip-top shape and ready to go, plenty is happening onboard the ship, and you’re bound to have an excellent day.

The ship’s casino is the place to try your New Year’s luck. Alternatively, you can sit back and enjoy a spectacular show, mesmerising magic act or live music performance at one of the ship’s incredible venues. As always, the restaurants will be serving up delicious fare, and the bars will be open so you can toast to the New Year or recover with a little hair of the dog.

Day 3 At Sea

The Ventura is renowned for its entertainment and, with more than eight entertainment venues to choose from, you’re never lacking in things to do. The incredibly popular interactive gameshow, Wavelength, is always a hit, while the Arena Theatre shows a combination of movies and live productions throughout the day and into the night.

There’s plenty of live music, comedy, cabaret and magic to enjoy, too. The luxurious Tamarind Club always puts on a great show, while the Cuban-themed Havana Club plays those irresistible salsa rhythms and serves up refreshing mojitos. And, if you’re feeling lucky, the on-board casino awaits.

Day 4 Copenhagen, Denmark

Port Visit

The Danish capital is arguably one of the coolest cities in Northern Europe and epitomises the energy, creativity and cultural wealth found in many of Scandinavia’s biggest cities. For Limitless Travellers, it’s a wonderfully accessible city with plenty of recognisable landmarks, pretty pedestrianised streets, and gorgeous canals and waterfront promenade.

Whether you head straight for the famous Little Mermaid statue by the Langelinie Pier or relax in a canal-side cafe with a hot drink, it’s impossible not to fall in love with the city’s laidback charm. The Nyhavn Canal District is home to much of the capital’s historic architecture and is a joy to explore, while Strøget Shopping Street is Europe’s longest pedestrianised street and a great place to pick up souvenirs.

Day 5 Oslo, Norway
Oslo Norway Royal Palace
Port Visit

Set beside the water and backed by enchanting forests, the Norwegian capital is a compact city with a huge amount of character. One of the most accessible cities in Europe, it boasts a host of world-class museums and galleries, varied and eye-catching architecture, and a brilliant cafe and food scene.

On docking, the Limitless group will stroll or roll along the harbourfront promenade, taking in the majestic views of the Oslofjord as we go. It’s only 15 minutes to City Hall Square, where we’ll stop for a coffee. From there, the Nasjonalmuseet, Europe’s largest art museum and home to Edvard Munch’s iconic The Scream, is a popular next stop. The medieval Akershus Fortress offers a glimpse into Oslo’s fascinating past, while the Aker Brygge Waterfront is modern Norway at its most compelling.

Day 6 Oslo, Norway

Port Visit

On Day Two in Oslo, you’ll have the opportunity to spend the morning exploring the city before an afternoon departure. While many Limitless Travellers enjoy relaxing waterside or wandering through one of the capital’s leafy parks, you can also board a local accessible ferry and head out to the Bygdøy Peninsula to visit several of the city’s most popular museums, including the Fram Museum, Kon-Tiki Museum, Maritime Museum, and Norwegian Museum of Cultural History.

Leaving Oslo, the ship will pass through the dramatic Oslofjord. This is a great chance to enjoy the fjord’s tranquil waters and scattered islands from one of the lounges or open decks, and the evening light often lends the experience a very special magic.

Day 7 Kristiansand, Norway
Kristiansand Norway Cathedral
Port Visit

With its relaxed, arty atmosphere and sun-splashed summers, Kristiansand is a popular holiday destination for Norwegians and visitors alike. The city centre packs a lot into a small area, so there’s plenty to explore without walking too far.

The Posebyen old town in Kristiansand features pretty streets lined with charming wooden homes and shops, while locals flock to the city's urban beach to make the most of the long days of summer sun. Finally, the Fiskebrygga - the city's fishing pier - is a must-visit for seafood lovers. Generally, the Limitless group will head straight for the lively local fish market, before making its way to the town centre to see the impressive Town Hall and Cathedral. There's also the city's fantastic Bystranda Beach to visit, too.

Day 8 At Sea

By now, you will have spent several days exploring the Ventura and enjoying the facilities, activities and entertainment. But we guarantee there are still things you’re yet to see, do or find. Have you checked out the onboard art gallery? Eaten at all the restaurants? Taken part in the quiz show?

As we make our way back to Southampton, this is a great opportunity to check out those parts of the ship you’re yet to see or return to your favourite spots. Have a chat with your Tour Manager in the morning and organise the perfect day.

Day 9 Southampton, UK

Following your final breakfast aboard the ship, the Limitless team will assist with check-out. The ship’s crew will take down your bags, and we’ll help you disembark, make sure you reach your pick-up, and say our farewells. Your transfer will then get you home, dropping you off at your front door.

We can’t wait to see you on your next Limitless holiday!

How does Limitless assist with check in and boarding?

Having met the Limitless Team at the port, we'll accompany you to the special assistance check-in. As it's separate from regular check-in, there are no crowds or lengthy queues.

You'll then be given a boarding time. Usually, we board as a group. However, if this isn't possible and you would like the assistance, we ensure a carer accompanies you onto the ship.

We board via the accessible gangway. This ramp connects the ship to the port. If you require support or assistance, both the Limitless Team and the ship's crew will be on hand to help. There are also manual wheelchairs available to make this transfer easier.

On some ships, the accessible gangway can be a little steep. In these instances, two crew members will provide support - one in front and one behind. You'll never be rushed and your safety and comfort are always the priorities.

Remember, you don't need to pre-book any special assistance at the port! We provide this assistance as standard with all Limitless cruises.

What is Limitless Group Support & Holiday Assistance?

Group Support & Holiday Assistance is included as standard with all Limitless holidays. It's what sets us apart from every other UK holiday provider!

This level of support is suitable for those who do not require physical support, but may need a helping hand to make the most of their holiday experience. We provide this assistance in a group setting, so you must be able to support yourself if you intend to leave the group at any point.

What does Group Support & Holiday Assistance include?

✓ Pre-holiday assistance from your Personal Travel Advisor, who will answer any questions you have and provide support with hiring any limited mobility equipment you require.

✓ During your holiday, the Limitless Team will assist you with making the holiday accessible day-to-day, including:

✓ Help with checking into your hotel

✓ Help with accessing excursions

For more details, speak with a member of the Limitless team on [PHONE_NUMBER].

What can Limitless do if I require additional care and support?

At Limitless, we offer a range of additional care packages if your require a little more assistance. This allows us to tailor care to individual Limitless Travellers and ensure your needs are met while on holiday.

They range from our Morning, Evening & Occasional Daytime Care package for travellers who require intermittent assistance with personal care to our One-to-One Care With Hoisting package for travellers who would benefit from comprehensive, all-day care.

We always recommend getting touch with your Personal Travel Advisor to discuss care packages. They are always on hand to answer questions, provide information, and make recommendations about the package they think is most suitable for you. You can contact Limitless on [PHONE_NUMBER].

In addition to this, our care team will also reach out to you three months before your holiday to confirm you have everything you need to travel with complete confidence.

What are anchor ports and is Limitless responsible for port changes?

At Limitless Travel, we carefully select cruise itineraries with minimal anchor ports. Anchor ports are those destinations where port logistics mean a small boat or ‘tender’ transport is required to ferry guests to shore. In the vast majority of cases, these tenders are not accessible and some Limitless Travellers will not be able to leave the ship.

Unfortunately, port changes can happen due to any number of reasons while at sea. Limitless Travel cannot be held accountable for any such port changes.
