From relaxing on the sun-drenched Lido deck to enjoying British afternoon tea or exploring extraordinary itineraries, unforgettable adventures await on Aurora.
This was our first ever cruise (OAP age) and we loved it. My wife has mobility issues and the coach travel, embarkation and disembarkation were as smooth as they could make it - just need warning about the walk from the coach to on board and return. The cabin was clean and spacious and although dated it didn't bother us a bit. Only difficulty was getting in and out of the bath/shower. We generally had breakfast brought to the cabin and it was very fresh and tasty. The Horizon Buffet was as expected. The cold dishes and patisserie were particularly good but the hot dishes di vary a bit. We had evening meals in the Alexandria Restaurant at a set time and they were very good. The waiters were very friendly and attentive and we had the same two throughout the voyage who were excellent. We didn't do a lot of the activities on offer but the entertainment was good, and we enjoyed the late night quizzes in the buffet. Nice range of bars to relax in and enjoy the view. We would not consider going on a larger ship and we enjoyed the ambience of this one. Yes it is a bit dated and could do with a spruce up in places - which is starting as we speak - but that didn't reduce our enjoyment of the cruise. Minor niggles - the small bath was difficult to get into, even to shower. The cost of the wi-fi package was expensive. The shore excursions we went on were good but perhaps a little overpriced. The quality of the TV picture was a bit variable.
We’ve just returned from our 12 night cruise on the Aurora to Norway. We really enjoyed the Aurora has it was our first time on this ship but like the older ships they don’t really cater for people with disabilities. The accessible cabins are very good if you can get one.We did manage to get one this time and it meant we were able to take the mobility scooter. This was a real help in getting around the ship and onto the open decks because the doors are not automatic so it would have been extremely difficult to access these areas if we had taken the wheelchair because the doors are not sills were all very high. Passengers on a cruise seem to dislike other passengers with mobility issues and seem to go out of their way to stop them from getting into the lift's even though they are the first in the queue and no matter if they are going up or down they push in and say I’ll go down to go up or I’ll go up to go down so you have to wait until they have all gone before you can go to where you need to go. Don’t get me wrong but there are a few people that will help you but very few. Some times you have to be a bit forceful and then they look at you as if to say what do you think you’re doing getting in a lift before me. Well that’s my gripe out of the way and the rest of the cruise was very good even though we missed a couple of ports due to the weather. The entertainment was excellent and the Headliners were one of the best performers we’ve seen. We ate in the Medina restaurant and our waiters Jonas and Pamela were excellent and really looked after us. The whole crew were a credit and they were always smiling and happy and would always speak to you. We would definitely recommend the Aurora to anybody with disabilities if you are taking a mobility scooter or able to get around on your own. We will return if we can get a accessible cabin but other wise no.
