The staff really made it for me. They were all so warm and friendly. The restaurants and food were all 100 percent. The shows were outstanding. All in all such a wonderful time.
The pre loading of the cards with spending money is a great way to budget with each purchase showing immediately. The on board app works well from being able to text each other to knowing which activities are available ...
Firstly the entire crew were all wonderful helpful and caring.
The food though was very disappointing. Breakfast the eggs scrambled or fried were stone cold along with bacon.
Dinner and lunch at the Waterfront Restaurant had the same menu every night . The quality was not good. Dragon Lady and Angellos was the same. The only decent meal was at Lukes which we had to pay for. It was of the ...
We had never cruised before and had organised this with other family members and our three kids, youngest 14 and oldest 20.
First impression was that the ship was amazing nicely appointed, clean and vast.
We are at all three restaurants and were not disappointed by what was on offer, wait staff were friendly and attentive.
The pantry was the new style buffet and was the go to for ...
We chose this cruise as a winter escape and a mid-year break from work.
Even though the ship itself was old, it had been beautifully maintained. The public areas were both casual and tastefully decorated. Among our favourites were the Bonded Store, Angelo’s restaurant, and Charlie’s Bar.
The Entertainment team did an excellent job of being inclusive of people with disability and there was ...
We booked this cruise quite late. I was asked to take leave and the timing suited us and the pricing was amazing. We got a BA grade balcony cabin for 6 nights for under $800 p.p. and that included a soda package, a social internet package and a $50 cruise credit for each of us. In addition, we organised our flights from Melbourne to Cairns and Auckland to Melbourne via P&O who were able to ...
Chose this cruise to visit places we hadn't been to for a while. Wonderful time for a budget cruise. Balcony room was spotless. Stewards spoilt us .The staff were absolute legends, from the captain down, friendly patient efficient..loved them. Themed nights were same ol same ol. They should change them a bit..they were the same as the last cruise we were on. The music was most excellent "Solid ...
We have sailed on some high end lines such as Cunard and Oceania. We are not comparing the Pacific Adventure with those as this is a completely different experience. This ship is great if you are looking for great value and a fun time away with family or friends. We felt that we got a fantastic product fo the very good price of this cruise. The crew on this ship are as good as any we have ...
To us it was very cheap. About 750 for a 10 night Noumea and Vanuatu cruise in an obstructed ocean view cabin. We were also keen to see what a winter cruise was like. Good value but marred in my own opinion by the adult homour in the shows even when kids were obviously in the audience. The food was okay and the coffee is good. The itinerary was good and activites well run. The crew are friendly ...
Just can't understand why people can P&O!
They offer a good product at a good price and really they aren't much different than other lines we have been on.
The food is just like going to your local pub for a nice meal except you don't pay for it at the end of the night.
The entertainment is very good, the crew shows in the marquee are great and the music in the bars at night are ...
The Pacific Explorer, just like its sister ships in Australia, is a horrible old relic with rust everywhere and daggy old cabins - it really needs to be scrapped.
I had a terrible customer service retail experience where I was treated like an imbecile. I advised P&O of my awful experience through multiple channels, but have never received any acknowledgement of my complaint or an apology. I ...
