Norwegian Bliss

Norwegian Bliss offers a fantastic array of dining choices such as the Garden Café buffet, three main dining rooms, and the Local 24hr Bar & Grill.

Speciality restaurants include:

• Cagney's Steakhouse - a warm and welcoming venue serving fine steak and seafood
• La Cucina Italian - this contemporary restaurant boasts a fabulous menu of Tuscan cuisine
• Teppanyaki - experience this very special Japanese style of cooking in which your dinner time becomes an event
• Q Texas Smokehouse - offering classic American fare such as brisket and mac-n-cheese.
• Los Lobos - a modern take on traditional Mexican cuisine such as tacos, homemade guacamole, and enchiladas.

What's more, some of these amazing dining venues feature waterfront alfresco dining on the promenade! After dinner, pop along to Starbucks where you can order your favourite speciality coffee.

For gentle entertainment, guests can choose from a number of atmospheric and welcoming bars such as The District Brew House, where there are 50 bottled and draught beers to try, and The Cellars where you can choose from 35 different wines, and attend seminars or tastings beforehand if you're not sure what you like best. Other venues include the Sugarcane Mojito Bar, Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville at Sea, Malting's Whiskey Bar and Spice H2O.

Alternatively, if you're looking for something a little more exhilarating, opt for a night spent in the onboard casino and try your luck on a variety of games while enjoying drinks with friends.

There are also some thrilling production shows to see at the theatre, such as the Tony Award-winning Broadway show Jersey Boys, and Happy Hour Prohibition - the musical. The Cavern Club also hosts a Beatles cover band that perform nightly.

Families are expertly catered for onboard a Norwegian Cruise and from the moment you step on the ship, you’ll find dedicated spaces for every member of the family. The youngest guests can enjoy organised activities and sports tournaments at the Splash Academy, while Guppies is the perfect group for parent-child fun led by Early Years Coordinators. Teens haven’t been forgotten either, and the Entourage Teen Club is the place for them to retreat- strictly no parents allowed! Parents will also be pleased to know that during port days, Group Sitting means that they can escape for a few hours and finally enjoy the date night they’ve been planning for months.

To get everyone back together again, there’s no better place onboard than the Kids Aqua Park, where children can play safely in the water, while parents look on from the comfort of a sun lounger.

Nothing says holiday more than a trip to the spa and luckily Norwegian Bliss boasts the brilliant Mandara Spa with a Thermal Spa Suite, Vitality Pool, and even Salt and Snow Rooms. Relax while on heated tile loungers designed to soothe muscles, or spend time unwinding in the hot tubs. There is also a generous menu of treatments to choose from, and a Barber Salon too, so you can leave feeling truly spoilt.

Dive right back into the action onboard by heading to the Aqua Park, featuring swimming pools, hot tubs and water slides, including the tandem Aqua Racer, and breathtaking Ocean Loops flume. This latter slide even has transparent sections suspended over the side of the ship- try it if you dare!

The fun continues at the 1000-foot outdoor electric-car race track, a unique opportunity to burn some rubber in the middle of the ocean, or you could just to slow the pace down with a go on the mini golf course or a visit to the Video Arcade. For those looking for a more structured way to exercise during the cruise, the modern gym facilities, including classes and personal trainers, are a great way to keep you in shape.

Meanwhile, if your idea of a holiday is more leisurely then you’ll no doubt be delighted by the range of shopping opportunities on Norwegian Bliss. Whether you’d like to treat yourself to a new watch, give your wardrobe an upgrade or simply pick up a replacement for those sunglasses that blew overboard, you’re sure to find a shop to suit every need, with the added bonus of duty-free prices.
