P&O Cruises flies the flag for Great Britain when it comes to affordable family-friendly and adult-only cruises.
The seven cruise ships across the P&O Cruises fleet feature images of the union flag across the bow and many of the sailings are targeted at the British market as they provide the convenience of departing from Southampton and have plenty of home-themed food, bars and entertainment on board.
Two of the ships – Arcadia and Aurora – focus on adult-only sailings while the rest cater for all ages.
Now part of the Carnival Corporation, P&O Cruises actually dates back to the 19th century.
It combines tradition onboard with formal nights and quality entertainment as well as modern attractions such as rope courses, escape rooms and a SkyDome that hosts pools and hot tubs by day and live shows at night.
The ships visit a range of destinations such as the Norwegian fjords, northern Europe and the Mediterranean.
But passengers can also explore further afield on sailings around the Caribbean, South America and Australia.
