Review for Arcadia to World Cruise
Dizzy Miss
First Time Cruiser • Age 70s
We hadn't cruised before but the idea of the Asia cruise with a tour of the Golden Triangle really appealed to us.
We weren't disappointed with any part of the holiday, we saw so many places we would probably never visit on a holiday, Vietnam in particular.
The Arcadia was a lovely ship, not too big, we had always dreaded being on a huge "block of flats" type ship and this was ...

We wanted to visit many of the ports offered on this leg of the World cruise.
Embarkation was poorly organised as there was little room at HongKong terminal.
Our cabin was fine and what we expected ie Queen size bed,balcony and good bathroom with bath and tea making facility.There was poor hanging space in the wardrobe but we managed.
Meals we found a bit dull,do not go on PO expecting ...

I have held back from posting the following critique of Arcadia for almost 9 months . After writing it I thought ; Well P&O is just like this now and you can take it or leave it. However, I am currently on the Aurora and many of my critiscisms of Arcadia, simply do not apply. For example, I have seen the Captain almost every day and exchanged pleasantries on numerous occasions. The jacuzzis are ...

We choose this cruise as previous passengers always spoke highly of Arcadia and the itinerary was very attractive. Unfortunately, excursions were poorly planned and organised: black tie events and smart jacket events were changed I.e. reduced and cancelled, from the original itinerary; the only (very small) dance floor is taken over by the dance club so no where to party in the evening wearing the ...

10+ Cruises • Age 70s
P and O offer a satisfactory standard but are confused about who their customers are.
Cheap deals do mean that there are times when the ship becomes a 'booze cruise ' ( we had some lovely but boisterous Aussie's for about a week, it was a similar story after CapeTown).
We like the formal nights but they are frequent and supposedly optional and here lies the problem. The entertainments ...

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 cruise was the itinerary change; we had booked this cruise because we liked the itinerary and although we had already been to most of the ports before we had not been ...

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 evenings, I was served lobster amounting to two mouthfulls. Lunches were worse. Crab Risotto had a few minute pieces of Crab Stick, not crab. Plaice, when removed ...

Review for Arcadia to Australia & New Zealand

First Time Cruiser • Age 60s
OK, first off the good news: Arcadia is a great ship, the crew is excellent, the food is really good, the spa is brilliant, knowledgeable speakers on Asian art & astronomy etc, pretty good comedians/magicians, mediocre dance groups which seemed to rely on decibels only, destinations were OK but shore excursions were patchy.
The major negative is that you could be on a floating nursing home what ...

10+ Cruises • Age 80s
Taking this cruise was a big mistake as in February both China & Japan are very cold at this time of the year, also there were 6 continuous sea days from Japan to the next port of call and warmer climate.
The ship itself is beautiful, including the balcony cabin, but there is little else to commend.
Lots of empty bars, containing bored waiters, and a few sleeping passengers.
It was nice to ...

First Time Cruiser
Wife and I were celebrating our 25th anniversary - so this was a special cruise. We selected this cruise based on the ports of call. We knew most of the passengers would be retired folks. We first cruised with P&O in the late 1980's and upto this cruise our favorite cruise line was Princess. So for folks reading this here is a brief summary:
Ports of call fantastic Cabin stewards/bar ...
