Excellent itinerary to Norway and Iceland. Aurora is one of the smaller ships but suited us perfectly. Food and entertainment very good.

We had an enjoyable cruise on Aurora, however found the food in the dining room very bland & even on Black tie evenings there was no special stand out meal, only when you go to restaurants you pay extra for such as Sindhu do you get quality

A lovely ship. Sadly however unlikely to sail with her again as P & O are now surcharging solo passengers in order to subsidise / keep costs down for couples

I’ve cruised many times with my late husband who was disabled towards the end but we still had to adhere to the strict dress code. This time I introduced my partner who had cruised many times but not with P&O. We were both quite shocked at the very relaxed style that’s been introduced during dining. Some arrived in round necked tee shirts almost as if they were trying to make a statement as to what they could get away with. I think a collared tee shirt or short sleeved shirt should be the minimum dress standard. The cruise standard was still extremely good and our waiters hard working and helpful even if seeming very rushed. I’ve always liked Aurora and would happily go again. The shows were just amazing with so many costume changes that looked unbelievable. The Norway weather was kind on the whole and we enjoyed spectacular views from our balcony and exploring on shore.

Headliners excellent, singers and other soloists excellernt, atmosphere relaxed, dining menu and service mostly excellent (waiters friendly and organised. We organised our own independent excursions, hence 1 score for your excursions. Crew good morale and ship deserves 'best in fleet' rating. We also cruised with Arvia, Iona, Britannia and Arcadia and like them all.

An older ship with super atmosphere Our first time with p and other toilets around the ship not as large modern or as well maintained as we have used on other ships Meals were excellent We booked a cabin with a walk in shower and requested a stool this was ignored I struggled with an over bath shower which was difficult Embarking and disembarking was nothing below excellent with disability help We would go again but ensure we had the correct type of room The cruise destination was wonderful

Very enjoyable cruise and hard-working staff go that extra mile to ensure guests are well taken care of. Norway is a beautiful country, and the destinations were all worthwhile seeing.

Had a great time, the only issue I found was it was cold at all times due to the air conditioning.
