April 11, 2009 - Have you ever dreamt of driving a sleek Ferrari around the streets of Rome or soaring over glaciers in a helicopter?
Well now the dream can become a reality with the range of 89 new shore excursions being offered by P&O Cruises in 2009.
Designed to meet and exceed the needs of new and more adventurous cruise passengers, the programme offers a range of 'must do' activities and
experiences on land, sea and in the air.
Says P&O Cruises managing director Nigel Esdale: "This new range of shore excursions offers new and returning passengers the chance to
experience something completely extraordinary during their holiday. We can now offer them a choice of experiences that simply would not be possible on
any other type of holiday. In a two week Mediterranean cruise they could have a private viewing of St Mark's Basilica, handpick a diamond, go
kayaking, cook an authentic French crepe and learn to flamenco dance."
Highlights of the shore excursion programme are:
- Driving a Ferrari F430 through the streets of Rome from the port of Civitavecchia
- Stunning helicopter trip over the New York skyline
- Visit to Breton Strawberry farm and experience the art of crepe making, from the port of Brest
- Kayaking on the tranquil Eidfjord lake
- Sea plane sightseeing flight over Bergen
