Cruise from Southampton with P&O Cruises aboard Oriana - a 'child-free', traditional and elegant ship

P&O Cruises celebrates 175 Years in 2012 - * The Peninsular Steam Navigation Company, to which P&O Cruises can trace its roots, was awarded the Government mail contract in 1837

With a history dating back to the 1830's, you could almost say that P&O invented cruising.

Building on this heritage with a strong commitment to innovation, P&O Cruises is proud to hold the title of Britain's leading cruise line.

 

Aimed exclusively at the British market, you are guaranteed to feel at home wherever you may be in the World.

P&O Cruises Oriana underwent a month-long dry dock refurbishment in late 2011 which transformed the ship so it is exclusively for adults.

The re-fit saw the addition of 27 new cabins and the introduction of an Ocean Grill restaurant by Marco Pierre White.

A second restaurant, Sorrento, serving Italian cuisine and with an outdoor dining area, has also been added. Cover charges of £12.95 and £5, respectively, will apply in the two new restaurants.

The aft deck and its bar have been redesigned, décor has been upgraded in the public areas and the Oasis Spa, and the ship’s Mediterranean-style café, Al Fresco, has been refreshed.

Slightly more formal than Arcadia and Oceana, Oriana is a more traditional liner styled ship.

 

Combining elegance and classic cruising, Oriana’s timeless style is a favourite with many. Wooden panelling, traditional artworks and tiered decks provide the most refined of settings.

Her terraced stern and sense of history epitomise the romance of cruise travel. Broad decks, quiet nooks and sparkling pools invite you to linger and relax. And her open bow provides the perfect vantage point as you sail.
