The Good, The Bad, and the Wet by DeepFriedMal

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Arcadia

Some nice ports of call some not so nice, one missed due to high winds and lots of rain, however we also saw a lot of sea life. A nice break with some great food.

A Wonderful Cruise by teacup

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Arcadia

This cruise provided me an opportunity to learn of Norway's history and it's current systems for addressing the needs of it's citizens.Met some friendly people with whom past cruising experiences were shared. Very dissatisfied that having booked this cruise since 2019 and recorded my birthday,l was shocked when l was not given even a birthday card which l have received on other cruises .

Arcadia - 2023 Grand World Cruise by Lancashire123

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Arcadia

Our first world cruise since the Covid pandemic. Arcadia is not in a tired state despite recent reports, she is as wonderful as ever, a beautiful ship with a classic ambience. The infamous buckets collecting leaking water did appear but a cruise on Arcadia wouldn’t be complete without them, she’s got plenty of character! Yes there has been a slight drop in standards on P&O in general but was glad to see that high standards were being maintained on Arcadia. The crew were phenomenal and really looked after us. The food was very good although there were some slightly questionable concoctions on certain menus but we never struggled. We are booked on Arcadia’s eastern circumnavigation for 2026 and it will be lovely to be back on board this wonderful ship. We very much enjoy the traditional experience that she offers although I would stay clear of the new P&O ships.

New year short cruise by gerry08

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Arcadia

Me personally the ship is in need of an overhaul. Especially the toilet system as several of the toilets in public areas were closed for the duration of the cruise. Was annoyed to find out that there was no photographer on board for the cruise especially seeing as it was a new year short cruise.

The cruise itself was fun plenty to do on board and on shore. However I found the service very slow and the staff not enthusiastic. It’s sad because good service makes any cruise. by travelmorgan

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Arcadia

As stated previously I enjoyed my cruise, however the service was chaotic.

An amazing trip across the Atlantic for a couple of budget seeking explorers, in cruising terms. We made a lot of friends and loved the whole experience.

Ship: Arcadia / Destination: Europe

It was a Christmas cruise so maybe it seemed more fun and no one suffered from the dreaded lurgy. GREAT.

Excellent Cruise by HSHThorne

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Arcadia

Arcadia is one of my favourites, it is clean, spacious and elegant as well as well thought out. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly and they are happy to assist. The food was excellent as always in the MDR and Ocean Grill. Our mini suite on D deck was perfect as it was clean and spacious it definitely had an element of luxury. The itinerary was interesting and different. The entertainment was also very good. Sometimes Christmas cruises can sometimes fall below the usual standard however I couldn’t fault Arcadia and her crew.

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple

Really enjoyed the Caribbean would highly recommend, it’s a lovely cruise very relaxing long sea days. I think you have to do more on the ship unless you like to read a lot but we met some great people.
