About the cruise:

This Eid cruise has been scheduled for Eid day itself so therefore it’s an amazing afternoon with your loved ones.

All past Eid cruises sold out in advance, with an extensive waiting list and based on our last Eid afternoon tea cruise there is much eagerness for people wishing to book this time. Therefore, please book as early as possible to avoid disappointment.

What is an Afternoon Tea?
Afternoon Tea is a tea-related ritual, introduced in Britain in the early 1840s. It evolved as a mini meal to stem the hunger from lunch and anticipation of an evening meal

Menu:

A selection of halal sandwiches on white, brown and tomato bread
Fruit scone
Jam and clotted cream
Fruit tartlet, afternoon tea cake
Shortbread biscuit
Cup of tea or coffee

Extra drinks can be purchased on board.
