Ambassador Cruise Line parking at QEII Cruise Terminal
Ambassador Cruise Line occasionally calls at QEII Cruise Terminal, and we are at the gangway whenever they do.

Why QEII suits Ambassador Cruise Line
QEII Terminal, named after the original Queen Elizabeth II ocean liner, is at the southern end of Southampton's dock system. It's part of the Old Docks and handles a mix of Cunard sailings as its main user, with occasional Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Silversea and P&O ships.
Access is the same as Ocean Terminal: A33 via Platform Road through Dock Gate 4. Southampton Central station is about two miles away; a taxi is easier if you're arriving by train with luggage. We meet you in the short-stay car park, 20 yards from the ship, and your car is back there for your return.
