On this cruise
Christmas cruises
If you’re wishing for an escape in December, free from the pressures of hosting, this is a wish we can grant you. Step aboard to the dazzling tree in your ship’s grand atrium and immerse yourself in the special festive activities and entertainment on board or simply savour the dining and relaxation.
New Year cruise
If your cruise falls over the New Year period, you’re guaranteed a great time. Toast good health with a glass of bubbly. Or don your dance shoes and see in the new year with a shimmy. Wake up the next day to a new destination – the perfect start to a promising year ahead.
School holidays
On a P&O Cruises holiday, you won't need to worry about keeping the kids entertained, we've got it covered. Our kids' zone, The Reef, is jam-packed with all the things needed to keep 2 to 17-year-olds amused. From sports coaching to talent shows and gaming to just hanging out with friends (and everything in between), everyone under 18 is sure to find something to keep busy!
Overnight in port
Double the discovery. Our overnight port stays unlock a world beyond the daytime. Imagine: moonlit strolls, vibrant local nightlife, and the freedom to truly connect with each city. Coupled with our full-day explorations and expert-led shore experiences, you'll experience each port's heart, day and night, in a way few others do.
Here's what else you can do with us
There's plenty to do on a P&O Cruises holiday.
Arvia
Our sunshine ship is perfect if it’s your first cruise holiday. Brimming with brand-new features and innovation, there’s plenty to explore. Whether you’re trying her high-ropes adventure, swimming beneath the retractable SkyDone roof or sitting down to waffles and chicken in 6th Street Diner, you’ll be bowled over by the variety on board. Why not join her in the Caribbean or Med?
