“The Best Cruise Ship in the World”

Europa 2 by Hapag Lloyd Cruises and JGT

What our Irish clients say:-
“I travelled on Europa 2’s second cruise from Lisbon to Barcelona in May 2013. We found the cruise ship was the essence of elegance. The gourmet food was delicious with a wonderful choice of restaurants. Everything about this cruise ship was pure perfection”. SK, Kerry.

 

Hapag Lloyd Cruises – Europa 2

The top-of-the-range German cruise line – Hapag Lloyd Cruises – has the unique distinction of having not only one ship, but the only two ships in the world, that boast the prestigous 5-star plus rating from The Berlitz Cruise Guide. First Europa and more recently, her sister ship Europa 2, broke all the records to become the two “Best Cruise Ships in the World”.

Hapag Lloyd devote Europa to the German market, where she is an outstanding sucess. Her younger  sister – Europa 2 – has been designated for an international clientele and John Galligan Travel are the exclusive agents for her in Ireland. Through us you can experience the best in cruising, sometimes at spectacularly discounted prices. Hapag Lloyd have also an outstanding exploration fleet of small ice-strengthened ships and offer an array of exploration and discovery cruises. The glorious 5-star Hanseatic is dedicated to international clients and you can learn more about her on our separate Hapag Lloyd Discovery Cruising page.

Flexibility and tremendous variety are outstanding characteristics of Hapag-Lloyd Cruises. But one thing never changes: making your personal wishes come true and turning your visions of what a cruise should be into reality are always at the focus of their efforts.

They want to make you forget your everyday cares so that you can discover how wonderful it is to live without constantly looking at the clock. A completely new kind of freedom is waiting for you. Cruises are not only a wonderful way to travel – they are also highly individual.

 

 

The Hapag Lloyd “Best in the World” Ambience

Romanticism, style, sophisticated comfort and the long farewell from those who remain behind — journeying by ship is the only means of travel that still redeems the promise once inherent in the word “travel”. The on-board atmosphere, the unrestricted view over the open sea and a wide diversity of destinations turn cruises into a passion. Hapag Lloyd have been slaves to this passion ever since Albert Ballin invited 174 brave travellers to the first excursion 100 years ago. We cordially invite you to join them and succumb to this passion as well.

Impeccable Service

 The EUROPA 2, the new flagship of the fleet, sets international standards. In it’s first year of service, it was one of only two cruise ships in the world to be awarded the coveted ranking of 5-stars plus by Berlitz Cruise Guide (the other being her sister ship Europa). Never before has there been so much space for each guest and so much private sphere in which to simply feel good.

 

 

Your Suite. Your Space. Your Choice.

The accommodation for the maximum of 516 guests on the EUROPA 2 is comprised solely of suites, each with separate living and sleeping areas. Every one of them has either a walk-in wardrobe or sea-view bath tub. All of them have a private veranda. One small detail: every passenger on board is given his/her own e-mail address.

 

 

Cuisine

All of the guests are served at a single seating and order à la carte in the stunning Weltmeere Restaurant with the large panorama windows. The more intimate speciality restaurants, “Tarragonl” (French cuisine), “Serenissima” (Italian) and “Elements” (Asian), serve the very best of diverse cuisine. International show stars appear on the stage of the Theatre, Europa 2’s concert hall and ballroom. Various bars and lounges, the library with Internet access and an auditorium for talks and seminars guarantee relaxation in sophisticated surroundings.

 

 Programes and Activities at your Leisure

A golf simulator, the hair stylist and beauty salon, the fitness room, sauna, massages, the wellness area and our swimming pool with Magrodom are all at your service to ensure your well-being. In addition, the exclusive boutique and Wempe, the jeweller’s, on the Promenade invite you to take an extended shopping trip. Let yourself be spirited away to fascinating destinations, or pay a visit to the world’s most beautiful golf courses.

 

NOW YOU CAN SEE THE WORLD EVEN IF YOU ARE A DIALYSIS PATIENT

The freedom to travel – even if you are on Dialysis! On the World´s best cruise ship EUROPA 2 (rated 5-stars-plus by Berlitz Cruise Guide 2014) you can enjoy life to the fullest. Travelling to faraway countries or even around the world used to be a dream that was unrealistic for people who rely on dialysis.

For more than 25 years, Hapag-Lloyd Cruises has been offering guests not only an on-board hospital, but also a fully equipped haemodialysis unit as well as professional care provided by qualified nursing staff. On almost every cruise of EUROPA 2, they can guarantee clients the same kind of dialysis treatment they usually receive at home. They schedule their dialysis appointments in such a way that they do not miss out on anything on the cruise – no port and no shore excursion!
