P&O Cruise . Oriana. 3rd May to 20th May.

My wife Mary and I chose this cruise because we had enjoyed the 25th Anniversary "Festival Music" Cruise on Artemis in 2010. We were not disappointed, for we had the privilege of appreciating the talents of international stars of the music world during our 17 day holiday. All performances were of a very high standard. Stephanie Williams who organised this festival, must be congratulated for bringing together such outstanding singers and brilliant musicians. Jacquelyn Fugelle, Soprano, Kevin Greenlaw, Baritone, John Hudson, Tenor, Vanya Milanova, Violinist, Stephen Pierce, Clarinet, and the two wonderful pianists, Terence Allbright and Michael Pollock could not be faulted. They gave great pleasure to large audiences.

I have some criticism of P&O regarding these events. The theatre in Oriana was always cold. Many people complained. The timings of some concerts were not convenient for 1st Sitting passengers. Sometimes the comedian or the variety artists were given priority over the classical performers and the classical concerts were staged in the Pacific lounge instead of the theatre, accompanied by much throbbing from the ship's engines..

Cabin Review

Inside Twin Cabin

Cabin OC

We were in Cabin C143 and we were disapointed at the lack of space in the bathroom of this OC Inside Cabin. The shower was little more than a gentle trickle. How on earth a really obese person would cope in a cabin of this size beggars belief! Also we thought that the small sofa was an encumbrance and not an asset.
