Creator's Key Takeaways

we did see a lot of leaks there was a lot of leaks on of all that there I've never seen so many of those portable dryers on a cruise ship before

the cabin you've got is the cabin you've got there's no cab cabins available on the ship which we know was incorrect

the fireworks were spectacular incredible they literally they started going off around about half 11 and they didn't stop until 2 a.m.

Aurora is a lot more laidback and if it hadn't have been for the fact that we just didn't get any sleep... it would have been quite a nice relaxing cruise

Join us as at 5PM GMT on the 6th of January where we will discuss our recent P&O Aurora New Year Cruise! This was our first experience of P&O Aurora and we sailed for 5 nights doing a Northern Europe itinerary. We will answer any of your cruise and travel related questions live! We are Tom and Dom and we experienced our first cruise on the MSC Virtuosa during her UK staycation cruises in 2021. We are relatively new to cruising, however we can now say we are officially hooked. Our mission is provide a fair and balanced review of our travels. We look at the types of food that is available onboard, from main dining rooms, room service, buffets and pool side snacks. We include menus for each of cruises so that we can share the selection of drinks and meals that are available. Entertainment onboard a cruise ship is important to us and we enjoy theatre production shows, live music, quizzes and game shows. We love to explore different ports and destinations and enjoy sharing tips and tricks so that you can make the most of each port. We often explore ports independently but also book excursions that are interesting to us.
