The highly-anticipated new cruise ship, the Anthem of the Seas, has just arrived in the UK.

Ahead of its naming ceremony, which will take place on April 20, the mammoth ocean liner has reached its berth: the 101 in Southampton Docks, which will be its home port for the summer season.

The world’s third-largest joint ship, owned by Royal Caribbean, is expecting more than 80,000 people to travel on board this summer.

With 16 decks and a capacity for almost 5,000 passengers at a time, the MS Anthem of the Seas, is truly an engineering marvel.

On board, guests will experience robotic bartenders, be able to take part in circus skills training activities and even go on a virtual sky dive.
