We begin our tour on deck 4 and make our way to deck 19 exploring all venues en route - the bars, lounges, theatre, restaurants, atrium, prom deck, open decks, pools, spa and yes, the launderette… Expect bad jokes, eye rolling innuendos, 20,000 steps and a few tips along the way. Drop your comments below, I’d love to hear from you!

I'm going on Ventura to the Canary Islands November 2024 and it's my first solo cruise. Thank you for such an informative video of the ship. I'm looking forward to the cruise and hope to meet some lovely people 😃
Have a lovely cruise ❤️

Ahh, it's nice to reminice on a cold and wet November day of warmer days at sea back in July. Thanks Jamie 😊
But don’t worry because those days will be back ❤️❤️😂
Up bright and early to settle down to watch some VENTURA videos🛳️🛳️🛳️🛳️🛳️🛳️🛳️
Have fun!
Thank you for a great review Jamie - it brought back lovely memories. We’d forgotten what a beautiful ship Ventura is. Pity about the Glass House - one of our favourite P and O venues. We are booked on Arvia next year - hope they can find enough crew for another giant ship!!! Keep up the good work. xx
Thank you so much David 🙏🙏🙏
Hubby and myself booked 14nights on Ventura next June. Need sunshine!
Enjoy! ☺️
Great video, Jamie! I found Ventura to be in really good condition when cruising on her back at Easter. I'll be on Azura next weekend - keen to see how she differs!
Hope you have a great time onboard!
I have cruised on Ventura five times since 2011, love that ship. did the fjords on Britannia, but my favourite was Oceana. i was on the last Oceana cruise before she was sold to a Greek cruise line. she was the fastest ship in the P&O fleet when i sailed on her, and had a special ambience about her, being a smaller ship at around 85.000 tonnes.
I sailed on Oceana multiple times under P&O - I was on the penultimate cruise as it happens!
@@TravelBlogJamie Probably the same cruise as me then. when i said last cruise, i meant last full cruise as the last one had to turn back due to the covid outbreak. we went down to the Canaries and Madeira and Soutern Spain.
Great video! I love the kids club reference, urrghhhh! 🤣 My thoughts exactly 👍
Oh I’ve got in trouble for that with people who don’t know me 😂 I am actually a teacher of 23 years so not the child-hater they think I am 😂
@@TravelBlogJamie hahaha! Oh heck. I don't mind kids really, just as long as it's not overun with the little horrors 🤣
@@paule9328 😂
Thanks for a great tour of Ventura, haven't sailed on her for a good few years, back onboard in October, had heard some horror stories about the state of things onboard but she is looking good.
And she’s literally just heading for refit so will be even better!
Great video, thank you. My husband & I are sailing to the Canaries on Ventura this summer, very much looking forward to it!
Hope you have a great time, Sarah ❤️
So are we 1st July
@@jgillingham010270 5th August for us 😀
I am sailing on her in April 2023 and this is very useful.
No problem 😌
Good video as always 👍🏻We've got 12 nights to the Canaries booked on Ventura in December 2024
Enjoy ☺️
Got back from 2 weeks on Ventura yesterday , had a lovely 2 weeks .
Pleased to hear it Tony ❤️
Will be sailing on the venture on the 28th October to Portugal 🇵🇹 and the canaries and servile 14 nights anything to look out for when going 😀
I’d recommend watching my 1 week on Ventura vlog - I gave looooooads of tips on that one. Have fun!
Thanks for another cracking ship tour Jamie 😍 We have so much love for Ventura, and it's great to see her in all her glory! And yes, this is a jealous Joe typing while Marina is onboard on a sea day 😁😭
We've said it before, but you really do brilliant ship tours - everything us viewers need covered, great information and entertainment, and the perfect pace 😊
The only problem is that "Ventura was launched in 2007" makes me feel very very old 🤣😬
Oh gosh when I checked when the launch date was I looked again, and again, and again, to make sure I had made a mistake. Alas… 😂
And thank you for your kind comments
@@TravelBlogJamie always our pleasure 🥰
@@TravelBlogJamie the mistake must be that it's 2022 and not 2012 then.... 🤣
@@MarinaAndJoeGo 😂😂😂
Cruised on ventura and azura good few years ago now. We liked the overall layout of them both.
Couple of weeks time we'll be aboard the Iona so can't wait for that .
Oh we loved our time on board Iona - hope you enjoy to the max!
Thank you I'm sure we will.
@@akajasonbourne let me know how you get on!
@Travel Blog Jamie We really enjoyed our 7 days on iona, only downer we both had colds (feed a cold which we did).
Layout of iona interior and exterior is well thought out plenty of seating and bars, didn't feel crowded to us.
Food is good apart from my pig had no blanket lol was resolved so all good on Thursday Christmas dinner.
Olive Grove and sindhu especially nice and majority of staff were great.
Don't think the virtual queue does p&o any favours as most venues had tables available or some occasions nearly empty.
Entertainment wasn't up to say princess standard but that's just our opinion.
Embarkation and disembarkation was very smooth just some patience from passengers would be appreciated chilax people.
I’ll be going on Ventura for the first time in September! So interesting to see how it will look!!
Ah yes, she’s in dry dock right now having a make over
@@TravelBlogJamie ohh is she? Interesting to see what will be different then! 😂
@@katieamarshh absolutely!
sailes on this ship before im 16 lol got lost on the stairases to different decks and rooms. saw these boys in the evening in the outdoor hot tub then turning up the next evening thinking i could go in overninght like them until i realised they got out when staff arrived. lmao. its so cool to look outside onto ur balcony in the morning and creepy at night. but the paloma faith act was good. however i have deleted footage of it so sad. would definitly do this cruise again.
Thanks for sharing
Hmmm... Done Aura, Arcadia and Iona so far and got Arvia and Britannia booked.
Considering a cruise on Ventura next year. She looks lovely but very strangely laid out. It looks like her decor is very Italian inspired and her layout is inspired by a Greek Minotaur's labyrinth 😂
Layout not a problem tbh but decor not my fav by a long stretch
Thanks for the tour, quite handy... we're on Ventura in November doing the short Amsterdam & Bruges cruise, I'll have a bit of a clue where I'm going on the ship now lol. I don't suppose you'd happen to know where the smoking areas currently are would you? I did Google but seems to be a few different answers. Wife is a smoker so it'd be handy to know for her sanity and my continued survival 😂
Sorry Andy, no idea - I’m a non smoker so it’s not something I tend to keep abreast of I’m afraid
No worries, we'll likely go a'hunting on the first day lol.
We enjoyed watching, thanks alot🙏🙏 Are there any guide signs which shows you how to go where you want?
There are maps of each deck at each stair well / set of lifts 👍👍👍
Hi Jamie, just watching this as we are on her for 14 nights😊 end October. We are not late nighters so what is the tv like, can you order movies? Is there good Chanel choices.
There are movies for free, yes, and tv channels
We are on Ventura Feb 24 for a 5 week carribean cruise, been on Brittania , loved it, done Arvia...not for us.
👍
I would love to travel on P&O but when trying to establish several reservations in late 2023/2024, blocks of cabins were 'blocked off and the agent stated I would have to let them assign me a room. In addition, she said there is no need to pay gratuities? 🤨🤨
This is much different than the experience I have had with Princess Cruises. Should I give up and consider MSC?
Book direct, not with a TA. You can choose you cabin on any P&O cruise. Gratuities are included in the cruise fare.
@@TravelBlogJamie Thank you travel guru! 🙏🙏
@@chrispnw2547 🥂
We are onboard Ventura in Feb 24 for a 5 week USA and Caribbean cruise
Hope you enjoy! I heard Key West was removed from the itinerary?
Us too
Unfortunately yes it has, an extra day in Port Everglades would have been nice, allowing people to get a full day in Disney
Hey , I’m a star :)
So pleased for you 👍
Im going on ventura on 29th april 7 nights
Enjoy 😊
Hi. Was you on the Iona last week?
Yes I was!
@@TravelBlogJamie you was waiting to be picked up in the dock next to us and I thought I recognised you and then when I got home I realised where from 😂
@@jolilly4264 oh that might have been me!
Is the ship wheeljchair assabll
Kew disabled cabin 15:33
