We have been on a couple of P&O Cruises and realise it is a budget cruise line but feel it has gone down another notch.Compared to other cruises there seem to be more passengers and less public space which made the cruise hectic rather than relaxing. At the end of the day would only go P& O again if the itinerary was very special. The Good Staff were friendly and mostly very efficient but we ...

My sister and I chose this cruise as it was a short cruise and just perfect for trying out cruising. We were not disappointed, the crew and staff were so polite and helpful.

The Kangaroo Island tour was the highlight of the cruise for us, the ...

We choose this cruise because it fitted into the school holidays as my husband is a teacher. We had never been to South Australia and thought this was a good way to get a taste. We found all the online Covid requirements weren't required. On embarkation we were asked if we had taken a test but not asked for proof of a negative test. Masks were recommended. First couple of days about 50% of ...

A Bad First Cruise Experience

My partner and I have never cruised, so we thought we would test the waters (pun intended) on a 3-day comedy cruise on the pacific explorer. As we had completed the VeriFly app, embarkation was relatively quick and painless. The balcony room we booked was very small and outdated. The temperature outside was 37 degrees and the room's air conditioning was really struggling to keep up (more ...
