Can I take a behind the scenes tour of the ship?

Behind the scenes tour

Ever wondered what happens "backstage" on your cruise? Walk in the footsteps of the Ship’s Company and you’ll find out. This is your chance to get into the heart of the ship – a fascinating tour that shows you what it takes to keep guests fed, entertained, comfortable and moving effortlessly from one dazzling destination to the next. Be one of only a few guests who get to see behind the scenes of our amazing ships.

 

How to book

  • Limited spaces for behind the scenes tours are available to book on-board selected cruises only and will be advertised in the Horizon newsletter, found in your cabin.
  • If your ship is operating a tour, you can book it on-board at the Shore Experiences desk.

 

Important information

  • The behind the scenes tours will be available on selected cruises. If the tour is available on a given cruise, it will be advertised on-board.
  • The areas of the ship visited will vary based on ship, brand and for operational reasons. We're unable to confirm in advance which areas of the ship will be visited.
  • Prices and the number of tours per cruise will vary based on ship and operational commitments.
  • This tour will take approximately three hours and will involve walking and standing throughout, there will be flights of stairs to negotiate as well as step-over thresholds. As you will be entering crew areas, you will need to wear flat, closed toe footwear and avoid any flowing clothing. Phones and photography are not permitted. You will be asked to complete a waiver and health declaration prior to taking the tour and pass through a security scanning arch prior to commencement. This tour is not permitted for guests under 18 years of age. Shore experience booking terms and conditions apply.

 

Please note, P&O Cruises doesn't offer the opportunity for guests without a booking to board the ships.
