The intimate 700 passenger Discovery joins the Cruise & Maritime Voyages fleet in February 2013 under charter and in association with the widely respected All Leisure Holidays who also operate Voyager, under the Voyages of Discovery brand, and the well known Minerva and Hebridean Princess.  Discovery has an enviable reputation for special interest destination cruising and CMV will continue to combine friendly service with stylish entertainment, delicious cuisine and on selected sailings, themed guest speaker programmes. 

The 20,186 grt Discovery has eight passenger decks, is stabilised and air conditioned, and is the perfect size for accessing more remote ports of call. In preparation for her debut CMV programme, Discovery is undergoing extensive refurbishment. Facilities include the Carousel Lounge, where you may enjoy colourful floor shows performed by our artistic show-team or the talents of one of our guest entertainers. With its panoramic views, Palm Court is a delightful venue to relax and watch the world sail by or to chat with fellow passengers after another wonderful day ashore. By contrast, the Discovery Lounge is the place to be for late night cabaret and to dance the night away.

Discovery offers traditional two sitting dining in the Seven Continents Restaurant or, as an alternative and subject to weather conditions, buffet style meals at the Lido. In addition, Discovery provides a shopping gallery, internet centre, a cinema/lecture lounge, card room and well stocked library. Be pampered with a massage or sauna, make use of the hairdressing and beauty facilities, or work out in the gym. She offers extensive deck areas, two swimming pools, two whirlpools and a pool bar.

There are no dedicated facilities for children aboard Discovery. However, children and teenagers under the age of 18 yrs are welcome when accompanied by adult passengers.
