“
...as the brass band on the quayside
strikes up to signal the start of your adventure, you can raise a glass and anticipate all the sights and sounds that
you can’t wait to experience. ”
As “the trusted cruise experts”, we can trace our sea going roots back 175 years in 2012 and we will be celebrating in style, see page 36 for details.
With our entire fl eet of seven ships featured, you can choose the wonderful camaraderie of small ship cruising with Adonia or big ship cruising with Azura and Ventura, and everything in between. And, if you know our fl eet well, then you may be interested to know that Oriana will have undergone a substantial rejuvenation ready for her 2012 season, as she becomes exclusively for adults. Adonia and Arcadia are also just for adults to enjoy.
There’s also a fantastic choice of four family-friendly ships that offer the perfect school holiday cruises. The Reef, our children’s club, is free of charge and operates year round so whenever you want to travel there will always be lots to keep the young and older children entertained. Find out more about The Reef and the facilities available on pages 28-29.
If this is your fi rst insight into the world of P&O Cruises, I do hope you enjoy leafi ng through these pages. In addition to the many holidays detailed inside, you’ll fi nd articles dedicated to painting a picture of life on board. Our ship comparison guide can be found on pages 6-7; a great way to compare facilities. But, rest assured, whichever ship you choose, you will enjoy that ‘P&Oness’ that ensures you will discover a different world, and have a holiday of a lifetime!
Kind regards
