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

I chose this cruise because the itinerary and timing suited my needs. I had a dozen sea cruises and 3 river cruises under my belt, but had never used P&O before. I believed, though, that they had a good reputation.
Other reviewers have mentioned the truncated visit to Amsterdam and missed visit to Zeebrugge. Disappointing as these were, I do not complain about them - I think one must accept ...

We are veteran cruisers and first sailed on P&O Arcadia in her maiden year of 2005. This was our fifth cruise on her. Oh dear: I really hate to be the one to say it, but P&O are a shadow of their former selves. Their standards have not so much dropped as plummeted. While the positives, on the whole, outweighed the negatives, we did find a couple of issues to be more than a little ...

The Arcadia is an old ship and it is starting to show. Leaky roofs and blocked toilets, stained carpets and scuffed creaky lifts. We found this Christmas cruise very underwhelming and thought there would be more activities and guest speakers. Our balcony cabin was kept reasonably clean by the steward, but I have had better standards on other lines. The food in the main dining room was monotonous. ...

We chose to sail Arcadia for the first time having sailed on Azura and Britannia. Was also our first ever cold cruise. Their were too many areas of complaint. Better to read the other reviews for details. In a nutshell the experience was not what we expected. As much as the staff tried their best the standard of food and drink on what should of been a showcase Christmas cruise from P&O was so ...

Having cruised many times we thought we would try a Christmas cruise. I am sorry to report this was by far the worst cruise we have been on. Regrettably this was a sentiment shared by all of the other passengers we spoke with.
The Arcadia is frankly a ship in serious need of upgrading or perhaps retirement from the fleet. Passengers had issues with toilets not working and the heating in the ...

Having just completed the P&O j219 cruise on Arcadia to the Greek islands with a stop at Malaga on the way out and Gib on the way back, I will give you the gen. Firstly we have only ever been with Cunard before this, so that is the benchmark I am working from, some facts..
£6400 for a deluxe balcony £3200 each.
Was it worth it, NO..the only difference between a balcony on a cunard was a half ...

This was our first cruise where we were allowed to dock post-covid lockdowns etc and we loved it. It was so exciting to walk off the gangplank in a different country and reminded me why we love cruising so much.
I was worried the ship might look tatty and there were marks on the wall as we entered the corridor for our cabin and I thought "uh-oh, the rumours are true" but honestly other than ...

Review for a Norwegian Fjords Cruise on Arcadia

We wanted to have a holiday in August without too much heat and so chose this Norwegian Fjords cruise. Everything about Norway was fabulous, mind blowing scenery and lovely people.
Having read some dreadful reviews of recent cruises on Arcadia we would probably have cancelled if that would have not lost us so much money. However, in the main our fears proved to be unfounded in most ...

Norway & Iceland cruise July 2022. The worst cruise ever.
Firstly food - no vegetarian menu, unable to get any senior staff to talk to me abut this. When I complained they said there was nothing they could do as it was all down to Head Office, pathetic. Tried to talk to Hotel Manager, no luck, tried Food & Beverages manager – no luck, finally got to the assistant Food & Bev manager and a ...

Prior to Covid we had booked an extended cruise with P&O. It was over 42 days, starting in San Francisco. When the chaos first started with cancelled cruises, P&O had said we could reschedule the booked cruise. So we did . Had we waited a few months we could have cancelled and received 100% of our money back, but not knowing how long the virus would last, we rescheduled and could not get out of ...
