Patreon opens on June 8 with very limited spaces and one very special perk. Aurora was the first cruise ship I ever stepped onboard. Back in 2007, I was 23, impossibly beautiful, and starting a seven-month contract onboard P&O Aurora. Nineteen years later, I went back. Was that a good idea? This is not just a standard P&O Aurora cruise review. This is me returning to the ship where my entire cruise life began — the shops, the coffee bar, the theatre, the prom deck, the crew memories, the questionable decisions, the nostalgia, the regret, the lasagne, and all the bits that are somehow exactly the same AND completely different. In this full Aurora review, I look at what the ship is like now, how she compares to modern ships like Iona and Queen Anne, what still works, what feels dated, what surprised me, what made me laugh, and whether going back to your first cruise ship is romantic nostalgia… or a terrible idea. If you love classic cruise ships, traditional P&O, smaller adult-only ships, or just watching a grown man emotionally unravel next to a coffee machine, this one is for you.
