We tried 4 P&O Caribbean Excursions… were they worth it?
Have you booked a Caribbean cruise? Or maybe you're dreaming of escaping the winter chill... Join us as we take you through the highlights of our 2024 P&O Cruises Caribbean adventure.
We’ll show you in detail what we got up to when we visited Barbados, St. Lucia, St. Kitts, and, last but certainly not least, St. Maarten. From exploring lush, green scenery in a 4x4 to relaxing on stunning beaches soaked in Caribbean sun, it's all in this vlog.
All of the excursions were operated by P&O Cruises. We paid for them all (not sponsored) so our views are completely unbiased.
If you have any questions, feel free to drop them in the comments section below, and we'll do our best to help. And if you just want to show some love and appreciation for the vlog, we’d love that too!

I’m on my first cruise, first flight and solo to Caribbean feb 2025 on Arvia and I’ve found ur videos so informative and exciting, can’t wait for mine 😊
Oh how exciting!!! We hope (and know) you will have the best time! So glad you’ve enjoyed the vlogs and found them useful! Let us know how you go! 🚢🥂🏝️☀️🍹🥳
I went on Anthem in June this year. I had amazing time Beautiful ship😊
Yeah she’s got something about her hasn’t she! Thanks for watching! 🥂🚢☀️🥳
Where do you recommend for sail away please? I'm a solo traveller with mobility issues? xxx
Hey, thanks for watching! The Sunset Bar is normally the best spot as long as the weather is good. Otherwise the Crows Nest Bar. Iona is really well designed with accessibility one of its key design points. Have a great time. 🥂🚢☀️
Really good information. My next family vacation. I loved the entire video.
Ahh thanks so much. Hope you all have a fantastic time! ☀️🚢🥳🏝️🥂
I pay £36ea for classic, it's wise to do your research before committing.
Absolutely! You end up potentially wasting a lot of money otherwise! ☺️ Thanks for watching. 🥂🏝️🚢☀️🥳
Great ship great cruise , if you have a miserable disposition stay at home .
Totally agree! 🥳🥂🚢☀️🏝️
HI I WANT TO SEE NORWAY AND IS THE CHEAPER WAY TO DO IT BUT CAN . BUT WE ARD WORKING CLASS ANDI ONLY WHERE JEANS AND TÈ SHRITS AND TRAINERS I DONT LIKEDRASSING UP IS THAT OK . AND DO YOU GET A TV AND KETTLE IN THE CABINS PLEASE .
Hi Paul, it’s a great way to see Norway for sure and agree on being cost effective. No pressure at all to dress up. We’re very much jeans and T-shirts too. P&O do have formal nights, but you can still be casual in the casual dining areas. You do have a tv and kettle yes. Also some pretty awesome biscuits 😄
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful trip! I’ve enjoyed every episode ❤
Our pleasure, thank you Nick for the lovely comment. Such a great cruise to go through the fjords. Heading back next year as we miss them. Hope you’re having a great week 😄
I went on the arvia in January with my daughter I loved every minute it's a little big and the entertainment wasn't brilliant the food was brilliant definitely go with p&o again
Thanks for watching! Glad to hear you had a great time. We love P&O too and think they’re great value for what they charge. Totally agree entertainment can be a bit hit and miss mind you! 🥂🚢☀️🏝️🥳
We are going to Olden next July on Aurora ship and wondering how you got to sky lift. Were you on a shore excursion or how did you get there. Thankyou
Hey! Thanks for watching! Olden is STUNNING and we know you’ll have the best time there. For the sky lift, leave ship and a few steps away there are people selling tickets for the sky lift. Grab a ticket and then catch one of the blue coaches that take you on the 10-15min journey to the base. The coaches are pretty regular. I’m sure you’ll love it. 🚢🥂🥳
Can I ask you, do you use a luggage tracker to keep an eye on where your luggage is? If so what brand do you use I’m having trouble finding one that tracks everywhere Thanks guys
Hey! Honestly, we don’t normally use a luggage tracker. We should as we’ve had friends in the past lose luggage (via the airline, not cruise line). In the past we’ve used an Apple tag and it seemed to work just fine though. ☺️
My last visit was iona and the only place were it was untidy was the gents toilets especially near brodies it was out of service sometimes cause of clogs and I personally saw gent's not washing ther hands after visiting.
Yeah, we noticed that on Iona too. I guess as it gets busy and it’s by the Theatre entrance they get a lot of use. Oh and the washing of hands.. don’t get us started. It takes seconds and the amount of guys I’ve seen coming out of cubicles without washing is astonishing! 😩🚽🧻
Looks perfect! Love you guys!!
Awe thank you! We love you too! 🥰 Thanks so much for the support and thanks for watching. ❤️🚢🏝️☀️🥂
Loved this!! Get us to the Caribbean NOW!! ❤
Thank you guys! Need to catch up on your recent Virgin Voyages vlog tonight! ☑️🥂☀️🏝️🚢
Oh I wish I was back there.
We know the feeling! 😂🏝️🥂☀️🥳
@@GetLostWithBenAndGareth is it bad that I literally went from your video to the P&O website ?
😂😂😂 We should get commission! 🤑💷😂
What does AFT mean please?
The Aft is the back of a ship. ☺️ Thanks for watching and if you’re going on Anthem sometime soon, we hope you have a great time. 🥂☀️🚢🏝️🥳
Always a good day when you guys post your adventures! That sea colour was amazing! We have beautiful beaches here BUT there are waay too many big fish with big teeth waiting for you just off shore here! It would be nice to just swim and not have to worry! (yes I'm an Aussie! 🙂)
Ahh cheers mate! Much appreciated! Yeah we agree, the colour of the sea was incredible! We’ve been over to Aus in the past and you certainly do have incredible beaches! Stunning! Couldn’t resist be have a hesitant splash around while we were there! 😂🌊🦈 We certainly want to return one day. Thanks as always for your support! 🙌🍻☀️
I loved it all great blog
Thanks so much! Hope you’re keeping well. 🚢🏝️🥂☀️
@@GetLostWithBenAndGareth Thank you both, I am keeping well thank you....Mxx
Loved this one, great to see them all back to back. 🐬
Thanks so much! Yeah we get requests all the time for longer content so it’s nice to wrap up all the highlights into one vlog every now and then! (Especially between cruises!) 🤭🫣😂
We had the best time on our Caribbean Cruise earlier this year! What was your favourite port? Ours was St Maarten… or was it Barbados… so tough to decide! 😂
Yes I agree. I’m going to stay in October before I cruise on the Arvia. Thanks for your video about the Arvia very helpful
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching and for your kind words. Have a brilliant time on Arvia. 🍻🚢☀️🏝️🥳
Hey guys, so every restaurant you go to on board. Do you have to wait to be seated? And they take your order for breakfast, dinner etc? The laundry, i take you had no issues bringing laundry detergent with you?
Hello 👋 Laundry, absolutely no issues at all. We just put them in a container to protect our clothes in case they burst. Restaurants, generally the booked ones like Sindhu we were seated as soon as we arrived. The main dining rooms could have a wait but if you use the virtual queue we found it wasn’t an issue. I think the longest wait was around 15 minutes, but we opted for a cocktail while waiting but it was ready before we were finished 😅 they hold it for 15 minutes though so no need to sprint. In terms of ordering I don’t believe you can order ahead. It was always done at the table. On some ships if you have food allergies they can order in advance but you’d have to check with the line you’re booked with. Happy sailing 😄🛳️🥂
Don’t even get us started on the toast. 😂😂
😂😂😂 It’s not great is it! Tehehe 🤭
We have been on this ship back in may 2024, and again, 02 Oct 2024, tip, to avoid missing out on events, leave a note for your housekeeper, to give you a printed " Cruise Compass" as for us oldies who dont do that much on our phones, its nice to have a printed copy, just like old newspapers! 270 food is fab, we ate there most lunch times, hotdogs was fun, as watching the bumper cars at the same time, This is a great ship, we were never bored, infact the opposite, had to go back to our room about 1400, for a rest !
Thanks for watching and for your tips! 🍻🚢☀️🏝️
My bro working in this ship..
Cool! Quite envious in ways but I bet it’s hard work!
I need to try Virgin out but the boss isn’t too keen 😅
Oh they really are worth a go…! What is it that puts the boss off?
@@GetLostWithBenAndGareth He's old and grumpy 🤣
😂😂😂
Really great video that has added to the excitement for our trip to the Fjords next July. Thanks so much! Have you guys been on the Ventura by any chance?
Thanks so much! We hope you have an awesome time next July! (We know you will! ☺️) Unfortunately we haven’t been on Ventura yet! It’s on our to do is list! Heard great things about it though. ☺️🥂🚢
Great video thanks guys! Plus your dogs are very very cute :D
Thanks so much! Much appreciated! We will give the dogs a cuddle on your behalf! ☺️🚢🐾
Definitely agree on the chutneys, would be great to have more. Always end up asking for seconds and feel bad.
Totally! It makes you feel greedy! 😂 Glad we’re not the only ones! ☺️ Thanks for watching! 🚢🥂☀️
Awww brilliant! Yet another lovely video. Thank you! x
Awe… thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching! ☀️🥂🥳🚢🏝️
What about carnival
It’s one of the lines we’ve never tried. Never fancied it to be honest. Are we missing a trick?
The price of the rooms are more like £192 per night
Thanks for watching! I guess it depends on the time of year and availability. That’s just what we paid at the time and as with any hotel the pricing can vary. 🍻☀️☺️
Im having a 22 night cruise but 12 of these are shore days so it would be in the region of £1200 and i wouldnt be making use of nearly £600 on the shore days. Id prob only spend that on board for the full cruise.
Yeah this is it. It’s all about weighing up how much value you’re going to get out of it. Hope you have an amazing cruise! 🥂🚢☀️🏝️🥳
Do they have very much vegan/ plant based food on the menu in the other restaurants?
As we’re not vegan ourselves we didn’t really notice too much to be completely honest. 🫣 That said. We do remember vegan options available in the main dining rooms and the buffet. And to be fair, I’m sure if you let them know your requirements they will do their best to assist where possible. ☺️
@@GetLostWithBenAndGareth brilliant thank you
We did the rum tour and snorkeling for our honeymoon, could barely stand at the end with all the rum😂 Whats included for restaurants/ food when they say food us included? Also what would you get drink wise without paying extra for drinks?
Hey! Thanks for watching! 😂… we totally get it! Much fun though. Food wise, there was jerk chicken, rice, salad.. that kinda thing. Drinks wise, the excursion we were on just included the rum cocktails if you wanted them. Otherwise they had lots of soft drinks and water. Great excursion overall for sure. 🎉🥂🏝️🚢☀️
Err...we've only been on Virgin and Virgin's our next 😂 Might consider Marella though...
Virgin Voyages are just epic! Can’t wait to be back aboard! 29 days and counting! We’ve never done Marella but always good to try something new! 🚢🥂☀️🏝️
Love the channel. The skylift is excellent. Went last year. What music are you playing with this? Brilliant
Ahh thanks Dave! 🎉 It’s a banger isn’t it! Most of our music is taken from a site called Artlist with this included. If I remember the title I’ll drop it in later 🍻
No thanks
Haha, don’t knock it till you’ve tried it! 😂
I’m on it 😂
Haha, awesome! Hope you have the best time! 🥂☀️🚢🏔️🏝️
@@GetLostWithBenAndGareth thanks
Where was your seat? And what seat where extra leg room ? Thanks
Can’t remember sorry. Tried to find the booking info and couldn’t I’m afraid. Most of the extra leg room though is in premium economy. It tends to fill up fast. All the best.
Nicely done! I took notes!
Merci! Thanks for watching! 🥂🚢🥳🏔️
Nice hotel.....................great blog..........................Mxx
Thanks a lot Maurice! 🥳🥂☀️
Looks lovely! Thanks boys for the review!
Our pleasure. Thanks a lot for watching and getting in touch. 🥂
Oriana was my favourite ship, once she went, Aurora became my favourite. We went on Arvia for our honeymoon last year and really and we booked again for this year whilst on board. I think despite the size, it's very close to Aurora in favourite ship for me. I never thought I'd say that for such a big ship!
That’s amazing to hear! It’s reassuring actually as our next p&o cruise will be on Aurora…! #spoiler! Thanks for watching and getting in touch 🚢🥳🥂☀️🏝️
Be sure to check out the full video on our channel by hitting the ▶️ button! 🥳🚢🎉 Have you cruised on Arvia? If so, what did you think? ❤
Beautiful boys! Thanks for the trip!
Pleasure is ours! Thanks a lot for tuning in! 🍻☀️🚂🏴
I will be on Arvia on the repositioning cruise in October.. Can't wait. This will be my 5th cruise on this great ship. Starting after the very bad publicity in February 2023. She is enormous, but also intimate, and you can have any type of life style experience you want. They do not insist on everything being booked on the internet anymore, there are ways around this if you are tech phobic. For me it has always been a fantastic experience. Jacquie Harbubble
Amazing! We hope you have a nice smooth sailing into the beautiful Caribbean seas. 🚢❤️☀️🥂🏝️
Are you allowed to wear trainers (smart trainers) anywhere on the ship on the night?
Hey! It depends on the dress code on the night. For example if it’s formal night then some restaurants will be restricted to only formal wear. That said, there is always somewhere on the ship you would be able to dine wearing smart trainers. On P&O’s website, they normally list what the dress codes are per restaurant. 🥂🚢☀️
@@GetLostWithBenAndGareth thank you for the quick reply really appreciate it☺️, do you have any top tips for first time cruisers x
@@laurastanley449I’ve only been on one cruise and that was this year we also booked for next year , as for tips I would say relax and enjoy yourself if you don’t want to do formal wear then don’t as you not got to do it , we done it just for photos then we changed into shorts and tops , same as other nights as you can go to the horizon buffet, on other nights my partner wore dark jeans and trainers and we went into the main restaurant, I myself would say just relax and enjoy as it’s your holiday so enjoy, I know we did every moment of it and on the day trips we done one for every port so it made our holiday feel like we were travelling the world and wakeing up in a different port every day make sure you get up and see the ship docking in as that was just brilliant, and meeting new people and making friends the people we met we all booked the cruise for next year on arvia .
Beautiful scenery and fab vlog, perfect Sunday morning viewing! Thank you for taking us along! HELLLOOOO DOGGIES ❤❤❤
Awe… our pleasure! Thanks for watching! ❤️🥂🐾🐶
I’m going on it tomorrow So exited !! <3
AMAZING!! We hope you have the best time. Let us know how you get on and have a Chocolate Martini in Vintages for us! 😂☺️🥂☀️
