Sailed February 2017
We sailed on a 24 night cruise from Sydney to Hong Kong and stayed in cabin E150. The cabin was spacious and had a slightly larger balcony than other deck cabins, as we were aft of the lifeboats. Cabin steward, Mitesh, was excellent and ...

We booked this section of the Arcadia's world trip in early 2015 as we were tempted by the stay in Sydney, the airline offered and the Great Barrier Reef. As an afterthought I consulted Cruise Critic and saw that many of the reviews ...

We chose this cruise mainly because of price and the itinerary. Our boarding was earlier than expected and as we entered the ship we were welcomed and advised that our cabin was ready. Our balcony cabin was spotless and our steward Stenley ...

This cruise was a 20 day leg of a world cruise, from Hong Kong to Dubai and was our third cruise on Arcadia, sixth with P & O. The boarding process in Hong Kong was efficient and went very smoothly.
One unfortunate aspect of this ...

My wife and I have cruised 24 times in the last 16 Years, but this was not a good experience.
After 7 Days on board I picked up the 'Arcadia Cough' which lasted for 5 weeks, I have never ever had such a bad chest and cough, the only ...

When joining the ship in Sydney we were required to fill ...

We have just returned from R 401 world cruise - Hong Kong to Southampton, 47 nights. I agree with others that the food varied from edible to diabolical in quality, and diabolical in quantity. We were in Medina, 2nd sitting. On lobster ...

The wife and I are in our late 60's and have been travelling internationally, and extensively, for the past 35 years, but we'd never been on a cruise before. We chose this cruise to Singapore for a "toe in the water" experience (pun ...

Having read the reviews by edinburgher and galazio we felt that we should add our opinion of the ship Adonia, "a tired lady of faded grandeur but retaining some of her former elegance"! prehaps this description could also be applied to ...

Please watch out for upgrade. The cabin we had chosen suited us but we were upgraded without our consent. The cabins that are avoided by the informed include the noisiest. From joggers allowed from 4 am jumping on the roof to parties ...

We are seasoned cruisers but had never sailed with P&O before; after experiencing the Adonia, we never will again.
The problem is not that it is a small ship - we tend to choose those - and the itinerary was grand: the Great Wall of ...

We had 13 nights which was certainly enough. Our only other cruise was with Cunard and the difference is startling. The pressure to buy drinks, especially by the pool, was at times insolent.
The food was standard British fare, plenty of ...

This was a cruise from Singapore to Cape town. We have cruised on this ship several times but never on a sector cruises so we were unsure what to expect. We were not disappointed but she is starting to need a bit of a refurbishment, ...

I joined Arcadia in Singpore for a very relaxing cruise through Asia visiting Sihanoukville, Bangkok, Phu My, Ha Long Bay, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, Nagasaki, Osaka, Rabaul, Cairns, Brisbane and Sydney.
Overall it was an excellent ...

Overall we 'quite' enjoyed the cruise, but it has to go down as one of our least successful. I'll get the problems out of the way first before giving an overview of the cruise ship.
Some of the problems on this cruise were caused by ...

I agree with all that 'graham 100' has said about his leg to Dubai.
To start with the boarding organisation in Southampton was chaotic.
The cabin was very clean and tidy - we had a good steward in Peter.
The TV was about a 15" ...

GENERAL OVERVIEW:
This was my 21st cruise, so I guess that I have now enough experience to offer a valid assessment of a cruise product.
This was my first cruise on P&O. It exceeded my expectations and I left the ship ...

My husband and I embarked on Oriana with great expectations. What a terrible disappointment this cruise proved to be.
Between Sydney and Brisbane we had two engine breakdowns. In Yorkeys Knob the tenders were so late that we were unable ...

As regular cruisers we chose our first P & O cruise for its exciting itinerary. Hong Kong to Dubai on a leg of the Arcadia World Cruise.
The itinerary did not disappoint and there were some good features on the Arcadia, tea and ...

We had spent a few days in Dubai visiting family before embarking on Aurora at Dubai cruise terminal so jet lag was long gone and we were relaxed instead of worrying if our plane was going to be delayed etc. This was our 6th cruise, our ...
