Your holiday begins! We know check-in and boarding can be a daunting experience for some travellers, so Limitless assists with every aspect, removing all stress and hassle, starting with our home pick up service, taking you directly to the port at Southampton, where our team will support with check-in. Once aboard the stunning Celebrity Apex, you’ll have the 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.
Your first full day at sea is all about exploring the ship and settling in. Typically, we'll meet for breakfast in the morning to discuss the day ahead, and plan activities. We often lunch and dine as a group as well, so you’re never short of company.
Of course, how you spend your day is entirely up to you! But it’s good to know that with the Limitless Team and your fellow travellers, there's always a friendly face around. Your Tour Manager will also set up a WhatsApp group to keep everyone in the loop and informed of any group plans.
Bergen is a city straight out of a storybook, surrounded by deep fjords, towering mountains, and sweeping glaciers. At the heart of Bergen lies Bryggen Wharf, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where winding cobblestone alleys transport you back through 400 years of Hanseatic history. Wander through artisan workshops, browse unique crafts, or visit the iconic Fish Market for a taste of the region’s famous seafood.
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. Winding your way through the Geiranger Fjord feels like the entrance to a secret world. 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 below.
*Please note, that although the ship is due to dock at the port on this date, this destination can also be tendered due to its geographical placement. The port would only be tendered due to a circumstance outside of the captains control.
Nestled at the tip of the Nordfjord, the picturesque town of Olden feels like a journey back in time, with much of its charm reminiscent of the 17th century.
The region is home to Jostedalsbreen, the largest glacier on mainland Europe, with easy access to both the Briksdal and Kjenndalen glaciers, which dramatically descend into the valleys below. Nearby, the crystal-clear waters of Lake Oldevatnet reflect the towering peaks and cascading waterfalls, creating a breathtaking scene of natural Norwegian beauty.
Today, you’ll arrive in Flåm, nestled within a tributary of the world’s longest and deepest fjord, encircled by towering mountains, cascading waterfalls, and lush valleys.
The sheer grandeur of Flåm’s emerald-green peaks makes even the largest cruise ships feel small in comparison, while the glass-like waters surrounding the town create a picture-perfect Nordic landscape. Whether you’re admiring the scenery from the deck or stepping ashore to explore, Flåm promises a memorable day of your itinerary.
Today, you'll find yourself back on board the ship as we depart Norway and sail for Bruges. Relax and enjoy inclusive entertainment on the Celebrity Apex. Watch Broadway-style shows in the accessible Theatre, or enjoy live music in various lounges. For quieter options, enjoy movies or performances in the Eden venue. There’s something for everyone, with shows designed for easy access and enjoyment.
Bruges, a UNESCO World Heritage city, is famous for its medieval architecture and over 40 kilometers of canals. With a population of around 120,000, it beautifully blends Flemish and French influences. Key highlights include the Belfry Tower, standing 83 meters tall, offering panoramic views of the city.
On your guided tour, uncover Bruges' rich history and hidden gems with the help of a local expert. Travel comfortably in an accessible vehicle provided by Limitless Travel, and enjoy free time to explore, visit landmarks, and indulge in Bruges' world-famous chocolate.
Following your final breakfast aboard Celebrity Apex, 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!

What Limitless Travellers Say
Just back from a cruise with Limitless
I realised I needed more support than I thought. When Jono Matthews first said hello with his infectious smile and offered to help I automatically felt his trust. Over the cruise he was always there for me supporting me and checking in. He's an asset to Limitless and I am looking forward to returning on holiday.
