OUR MOST EVENTFUL CRUISE - EVER!
"Hopes for good weather as we headed westward were answered with two days hot sunshine at sea until we hit a fog bank on the second afternoon.In summary, the ship was in good order generally, the staff are efficient and helpful (our steward was also excellent) and the Palladium theatre shows from the resident company were very good, the final one, on a circus theme, was tremendous, with a life-size walking elephant!..."Read More

Review for a Europe - British Isles & Western Cruise on Arcadia

My wife and I have been on 25 Cunard cruises and just three on other lines, one on the P&O Iona with the family, so were interested to compare Arcadia with Queen Victoria and Elizabeth. In summary, the ships and their feel are similar, the major differences being the upper decks being accessible on Arcadia but limited to "Grills" class guests on Cunard, so this gives more venues and open deck ...

Firstly the price paid is a huge factor in the context of any review - your expectations are naturally higher paying £1000 per night than our bargain £79.00 each for a balcony cabin. At this value my expectations were certainly exceeded. We have sailed on 20 cruises, mostly Cunard, and this was our first trip on an adult only ship. I hadn’t expected much difference but it was SO much calmer ...

Firstly I feel the need to thank but also congratulate Captain Ashley Cook and his entire crew onboard the Arcadia for their outstanding service on what was a VERY ‘testing’ cruise to Venice that left Southampton on the 24th June. Along with the vital and technically brilliant repair to one of her Azipod propeller seals calling for an extended stay in Malaga, there was an outbreak of Norovirus ...

Its 10 years since we were last on Arcadia, in meantime she had a full refurbishment, the cabins and public rooms were impressive and if anyone had a problem then the Housekeeping Manager would provide a solution. She is an older ship and externally there are areas showing age but considering she is at sea virtually daily and has been around the globe many times it can be expected. Daily ...

We flew to London via Hong Kong, had New Years with a family member before spending two nights in Southampton.
We had booked a balcony cabin on C deck near the aft, it was very comfortable although was showing some signs of wear, the bathrooms definitely need updating. However we had a great Cabin Steward who went out of his way to make sure we enjoyed our cruise. The cabin was kept spotless ...

We picked this cruise because it left from Southampton (no flying) and visited countries we had not seen before at the right time of year.
The drive to Southampton was smooth and we arrived at 12.15, with a couple of hours to spare, the port parking were very organised and efficient. We expected to sit in the departure lounge but were processed straight away and on the ship in the buffet by ...

We chose this cruise because there were a number of ports we have not visited before.
i can say that we were not disappointed, The main highlights were sailing in and out of Venice, Split and Dubrovnik.
Service was excellent in all departments and we found the ship in good condition and looks well after her refit.
this was our first adult only cruise and it had its share of grumpy old ...

First experience of cruising for more than 17 nights. This cruise was. 44 nights with 4 night stay in Sydney.
The cruise was great. A few days of rough weather over bay of biscay (as expected). Sea sickness tablets worked a treat,
There were two ports we had to abort because of bad weather: bay of islands and Tonga.
This is something you have to expect when cruising which us beyond ...

Overall an enjoyable cruise on a beautiful ship. The embarkation and disembarkation was very smooth and efficient. One of the highlights of the holiday was the food in the Meridian restaurant, which we found to be excellent, as mentioned by other reviewers the service was slow on some nights, but that was not a problem to us, as we enjoyed a leisurely meal with good wine, company and good ...

Having broken the back of the laundry after Xmas & New Year cruising in the Med onboard Arcadia (Cruise J218) we can now reflect on the cruise .... at our dispassionate leisure. It is nice to get back to simple fare like mince and tatties, beef hotpots and the like, although the food on board was excellent too - despite the hi-falutin' names given to some of the courses.
(Our previous (and ...
