Norwegian Cruise Line

Regarded as one of the largest and most luxurious cruise liners within the Norwegian Cruise Line fleet, the Norwegian Epic is known by its colorful array of ribbon designs that make up the underside of the front hull. This imposing cruise ship measures in at just under 1,100 total feet in length and is capable of carrying over 4,000 passengers on a single cruise. It is brilliantly designed to feel spacious and offers guests a world-class vacation excursion. 

Travelers aboard this ship will get to visit distant ports such as those found in Africa, the Mediterranean, Bermuda, and the Caribbean, and will have an exciting time learning about different cultures of the world. This ship has received a complete facelift to provide guests with more activities to take part in and an elegant atmosphere to relax and unwind in. With new restaurants to choose from, more Broadway hits to watch, and more stores to shop in, you will be in for a luxury cruise like you have never experienced before.
