P&O Australia Melbourne Cruise Reviews

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.

First couple of days about 50% of ...

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 The balcony room we booked was very small and outdated.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 ...
