Aurora Review

[Neilius]

I had a great time on Aurora last week.

 

If you're interested I've posted a review here.

A lot of us Aussies don't get often the chance to cruise on such a lovely ship.

Thanks for your review. We are going in June and you reassured us that we made the right choice for our holiday.

Hi Neilius,

 

Thanks for the review. It is good to get a new perspective. Now you know the 'Hell' we have to go through when we cruise.:D

 

I think you may get to see Arcadia next year. Ventura, which comes on stream in April is causing a great deal of interest with P&O saying bookings are well up.

 

Aurora was our first ship and so is special for us, although we have become totally addicted and love all the P&O ships.

 

 

:):)Happy Cruising:):)

 

 

 

:cool:

I got off the Aurora in Auckland.

I too thought she was a beautiful ship. The layout was similar but better than the Oriana. The bars were not so good as Oriana - especially Andersons. Preferred the restaurants to Orianas though -Cafe Bordeaux was really nice.

I was with my husband and another couple and we all thought that the food on this particular cruise was the worst we've had out of all 7 cruises with P&O. Lamb and pork seemed to feature a lot and it really wasn't the most tender to eat. We got off in NZ and toured NZ and Australia just getting home the other day and I keep thinking that the world cruisers are still on the ship - eating,drinking...Phew! Exhausting for them!

The entertainment wasn't great either. We were on for 16 nights. I suppose if we had just been on for a few nights we would have had a different opinion.

Overall cruise enjoyment 6/10 but I would go on Aurora again.
