August 2019 - Western Mediterranean Cruise on Azura
Hot Western med cruise
P&O give you really a good cruising experience. Entertainment for all types of cruisers. Our daughter, husband and grandson first time cruisers loved it. All the ports had something to offer. Restaurants, bars all offer a different experience. Everything you needed could be found on board.
September 2018 - 7 Night Scandinavia (London Roundtrip) Cruise on Sapphire Princess
Northern delight.
The cruise gives you a nice little view of two Scandinavian capital city’s (Oslo & Copenhagen). Zeebrugee is good for a trip into Blankenburge and Skagen is a small Danish coastal town which in my view is worth a visit.
August 2018 - 2 Night North Sea (Hamburg To London) Cruise on Norwegian Jade
Mini break
The Jade is a great ship with something for everyone to have a good time.
August 2018 - Belgium Cruise on Oriana
A Long Weekend
Smashing ship, good bars and eateries pity it has been sold.
May 2018 - Mediterranean Cruise on Oceana
Aegean Sea Cruise
Oceana is a lovely ship with one of the best atriums on a mid sized ship that I’ve seen. I personally found the ship a bit too small for my liking but for a seven night cruise it was fine. Was not overly impressed with the buffet on board, but I’m not a lover of buffet type dining.

Cruise tips
Ship docks in the city. Just take a walk around lots of interesting sights to see or take a bus around the city.
Visit Blandy’s wine lodge, a lovely old building, take a tour plus wine tasting.
Do the island tour our guide was excellent, lovely island very interesting.
Did the fire and mountain tour really enjoyed this trip.
Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas
Everything you needed on the island. Tenders onto the beach, was a great day😎
Take a walk along the canals at Livorno
Go to the Cathedral.
Visit the castle. Take the land train tour only 7€
Take a taxi up the rock arrange it yourself £30. Cable car 🚠 can have lots of people queuing on busy days, you could have trouble getting back down and miss your ship.
Take a walk along the promenade if you don’t go to Rome
So much to see and do, visit the Mercado de la Boqueria which can be reached on foot as it’s close to the port, head up La Rambla (it’s free to do)
Azura
If you play scrabble bring your own, we couldn’t find one onboard but we had our own.
City bus tour very expensive but you get to see the city. Some very good museums in Oslo the Viking boat and villages worth a visit. Try and visit the excellent resistance museum which is inside the fort (free entry to the fort only) which was next to where the our ship was docked.
A nice little coastal town take shuttle bus or walk. Good museums and houses to visit. Shops and restaurants in town.
We took the €10 return shuttle bus from the dock to Blankenberge which is a nice seaside town with a pier. Plenty of shops and bars to try the excellent Belgium beer. We found a bar that overlooked the quay which served 17 different beers🍺
Sapphire Princess
Cabin E422 advertised as having a obstructed view but actually it is partially obstructed quite a good sea view.
Take the free shuttle bus. Do the canal boat ride you will see lots of sights. Then go to tivilo gardens.
Lots to see a must see is wunder world you need around 4 hours there
Went on a trip Chocolate and villages. Guide very informative.
Oriana
Try Sindu Indian restaurant, Indian food with a twist. Had a excellent meal.
Take the bus tour from the port 15euros you can go to the Palace of Knossos worth a visit
Take open top city tour bus, 15 euros you can travel into Athens
Do tour via P&O, if you do the wine tasting tour you end up at the top then you come done via the cable car.
Your in the City. Take the lift up to the town 1 Euro pay a visit th St Johns cathedral well worth a visit.
Oceana
Limited dining options outside the two main restaurants. Try cafe Jardin rather than using buffet for breakfast or light lunch
