This was our first time cruising and it was amazing. Horizon buffet was excellent with lots of choice and we had a meal at the Glass House for our wedding anniversary and the food was beautiful.
The Britannia is a beautiful ship and even though it holds over 3,000 guests it never felt overcrowded.
The only queue that I saw was for the burgers and hotdogs at the Lido grill. And they were ...
Thank you to P& O Britannia. We have wanted to visit the Canary islands and Madeira for a while. This cruise fulfilled our expectations. We have sailed to the Caribbean before on Britannia a few years ago and wondered if the standards had slipped, due to some of the negative reviews. You need not fear, our experience was delightful. I am amazed at how some people can moan so much when we were on ...
We did the back to back to the Baltic followed by the trip to Norway. Overall we sailed 3 weeks and had a great time! We are Dutch and prefer PO above AIDA, MSC and Holland America Line.
On boarding:
Went very very fast, in 20 minutes we were already on board. As we arrived 4 hours later after the Norwegian cruise, a lot of people including us, all wanted to leave the same time with their ...
We loved everything about this cruise.
The meals it's hard to comment on meals as everyone has there own taste, we thought the variety was excellent from the restaurants to the buffet you could always find something you liked.
But the Headliners shows were fantastic as expected with them all being professionals, I think a lot of people don't realise that these individuals have to go ...
Please don’t be put off by all the moaning grumpy reviews, P&O offer incredible value for money and you have to take that into account. We had an absolute whale of a time and to be honest couldn’t believe what we got for how little we paid. Do not be put off if you see a really good deal for P&O as it’s well worth it. (Generally I think the people who are prepared to pay the least are the very ...
I have just completed a cruise on Britannia to Spain and Portugal. The cruise overall was fantastic and as such I have booked another on Britannia in June. A more detailed breakdown of the pros/cons are below;
Itinerary - I enjoyed every port we visited, especially Lisbon. The ship docked in each city and no shuttle bus needed.
Ship - The ship is large and was fully booked. However, it was ...

This was our long awaited Baltic Cruise, postponed from 2020. We were very apprehensive about going after the number of negative comments I had read online about how standards had fallen and how lack of staff was affecting the service. I need not hav worried. Embarkation was smooth and well run. Once on the ship we were greeted with smiles and welcomes by staff wherever we went. Our cabin was ...
Our first Mediterranean cruise in 4 years and it was superb.
Here are the key points.
The itinerary was brilliant. Loved every port, such beautiful cities visited: La Coruna, Valencia, Toulon (this replaced Marseille which I saw as an improvement...gorgeous beaches there), Barcelona, Alicante and Seville (from Cadiz).
As it was in the summer holidays I was slightly concerned Britannia ...
We had a fantastic holiday on onboard Britannia for a second time. The food was 95% great. The lobster and King prawns were a real treat. The entertainment was brilliant, especially the P&O performers and the staff are a real credit to P&O. The trips were well organised and despite the very hot weather we still had a great time visiting the different countries. I particularly enjoyed the art and ...
