Aurora and Acadia Offer Passengers the World in 2015
P&O Cruises World Cruising has announced two world voyages for its cruise ships Aurora and Arcadia in 2015, with each offering maiden port calls, unforgettable shore experiences, and extended stops at headline destinations.
Catering exclusively to adults, Arcadia will undertake a full world circumnavigation over 106 nights, with visits to 36 destinations in 25 countries. This classic voyage includes maiden calls to five exciting destinations, including Bitung in Indonesia, Darwin in Australia, Lahania in Hawaii, Manila in the Philippines and Sanya in China’s Hainan Province.
