    Join us for 4 night’s on our P&O Aurora cruise to Amsterdam.
    This was taken on our mini cruise in November 2023. The cruise was as an adult only festive cruise and we loved it! We had around 24 hours in Amsterdam and 2 full sea days.
    This was our first time sailing on P&O Aurora, and we cannot wait to cruise on her again. Aurora is the smallest and oldest ship in the P&O fleet, however, she still boasts 19 restaurants and bars, 7 entertainment venues, and 3 pools. We booked an inside cabin direct through P&O and put a bid in for an upgrade and got a deluxe balcony cabin which was amazing.
    We have another cruise booked on P&O Iona to Northern Europe in February 2024 and are hoping to go on P&O Britannia in July to the Norwegian Fjords.
    We had an absolutely amazing time and cannot wait for our next adventure!

    When that couple walked into shot to the theme from Jurassic Park…
    A great moment in an enjoyable video.

    Aurora’s such a lovely ship. I had the same cabin steward, she’s such a lovely lady. She remembered me when I went back on Easter.

    Excellent video, really like the way you take your video shots, very slow and smooth so that you can really see the subject. The ship looks amazing and you had a lovely cabin. How lovely that it snowed that night, perfect for a festive cruise.

    Hello fellow Seafarers! I think I was on the same cruise as yourselves…from Monday 27th November to Friday December 1st! It was incredibly cold in Amsterdam and I (I had a hired mobility scooter for my cruise) got so cold that I returned to the ship and warmed up in one of the hot tubs! I was with a group of other disabled cruisers and thoroughly enjoyed the trip. I entirely endorse your comments on the staff…they were absolutely wonderful. One of the Medina restaurant staff members…Alberto…even found me a place to park my buggy and helped me with getting my food every time I attended the buffet. It was my first ever cruise…my previous sea experience was with ‘Grey Funnel Cruises’ (Royal Navy)….a somewhat different experience.
    My cabin…especially adapted for the disabled…was very comfortable but I didn’t have a balcony. I enjoyed swimming in the top deck pool and the staff were so helpful as I had to be careful getting in and out of the pool. It’s a wonderful ship and I’d like to travel on her again. Only one incident proved a problem..and that was when there was a major blockage with my cabin’s waste disposal system (other cabins were affected too) and the enclosed bathroom was flooded out…but it was soon sorted and everything was ship shale again!
    I lost my wife last August and this was my first trip without her. She wasn’t keen on the idea of cruising but after my experience, I’m sure she would have enjoyed it! I’m now looking forward to a week long trip to Norway in late June/July on the Britannia. Perhaps you’ll be in that trip? Thanks for your excellent video recording…I liked your technique and (as someone who used to work in broadcasting) I was quite impressed by your presentation and ‘fresh’ approach. Best wishes to you both from the passenger who was in Cabin E177! Rob in Bournemouth.

    Spotted me and hubby at the Crow's Nest - we loved the cruise, Rotterdam was where my mum was born, so we went there by train from Amsterdam!

      Thank you for watching and commenting, and I'm glad you had a great time on Aurora too! 😁 I think it was in Becky's Ventura Amsterdam vlog (part 2). I would definitely recommend the chips if you ever go to Amsterdam again! 🍟

    My husband helped to build the Aurora 23 years ago in Papenburg, Germany. We were on this cruise as it was his birthday. She is still a beautiful ship but we stayed in a suite and it wasn’t that great. It was lovely to see her again but cruising wasn’t for us.

    • @JamesAndGeorgeAdventures
