A Tour Inside the European Highlander

The **European Highlander** is a ferry that is operated by P&O Ferries on their *Larne(Belfast)* to *Cairnryan(Scotland)* service in Northern Ireland. This ship was built in Japan in 2002, with 53 crews, can accommodate 410 passengers and carrying capacity of 21 188 gross tonnage.

The MV European Highlander is one of the fastest ferries on the Irish sea which sails on a top speed of 23 knots. It also gets a transformation in 2013 giving the passenger a more comfortable and luxury stay on board. And since they operate up to seven days a week crossing Northern Ireland to any parts of the UK is easy and convenient as you can also bring your car to the boat. From Larne to Cairnryan in Scotland, it only takes 2.5 hours of sailing. So if you don't want to travel by air then this ferry option is made for you there's no baggage restriction, you'll not going to pay an extra charge for overweight luggage.

From Port of Larne in Belfast, we board the ship with our car.

All these cargo trucks and cars are off to Cairnryan. We get off after parking the car on the boat and go upstairs into the passenger decks for boarding.

I'm not a fan of travelling by sea. I got scared of big waves and the rocking of the boat when the sea is rough is killing me. But then again it was boat so this big ship might feel different. I don't know, we'll see. As soon as you open the door, this is what you're going to see. Look at that!

I can't believe that this is what it looks inside. It's gorgeous, elegant, stunning what else can I say? Come let's see more! *Welcome inside the P&O Ferries European Highlander!* Information Desk If you have any queries, concern just goes to the information desk and they are happy to help.

Am I on a ship or in a hotel? 😆 It's spotless. Everything is perfect. Facilities As I mentioned earlier this ship has been refurbished in 2013. They make everything as comfortable and as convenient as possible. Everything was done to make your sailing a pleasing experience. From eating, drinking, shopping and relaxing you'll find loads o things to do to keep you occupied. Food Court They serve hot foods. Fish and chips, chicken curry and rice, English breakfast, stew and many more.

Look at these lovely images hanging on the wall in the food court. It's pure!

Coffee Shop They have coffee shop onboard serving Starbucks. You can choose on their menus like coffee, hot or cold chocolates, lattes, teas or cold drinks.  There's also sandwiches, wraps, biscuits, treats and other snacks.

Games Machine If you're bored and want to have some fun, get some money on your wallet and play! Good luck!

Sitting Area Sit, relax and enjoy the view of the sea. You can also watch tv only it has no volume. But truly the place is like in a first-class hotel.

There's also Children Play Area and Gift Shop on board. And you can go out to have some fresh air or to smoke. Observation Deck

And here I am just enjoying the view.
