Cunard Insights speaker programme expanded for 2024

The Cunard Insights enrichment programme sees celebrated authors, explorers, filmmakers, and other notable experts inform and entertain passengers. 

Last year, the cruise line employed 322 speakers. 

The 2024 programme equates to more than 2,000 exclusive Insight Speaker talks. 

Queen Anne 

Scheduled to enter the fleet on May 3, Queen Anne’s maiden season will include the likes of sports presenter Clare Balding, historian Dan Snow, and a judge from the BBC television programme MasterChef, Gregg Wallace. Each will share intimate tales from their careers. 

Queen Elizabeth

Explorers and adventurers will share their feats, providing an educational component to Queen Elizabeth’s sailings in Alaska. A cultural heritage guide of Alaska Native Voices – an industry leader in cultural education and interpretation – will also feature.

Investigative journalist and British TV icon Ross Kemp will deliver an Insight Speaker talk on board the ship in September, sharing stories of his time in Afghanistan, the Amazon, and following some of the world’s most dangerous gangs. 

The season will further include one of the world's leading high-altitude climbers and adventurers, Kenton Cool.
