CAUX MORGAN

Good service although there is a lot of queuing at border control. We paid extra and booked the lounge but didn't feel it was worth it. It was comfy enough and a bit more private and peaceful but not much variety especially for the kids who just ate some desserts. We paid extra for priority but again would not recommend as we were still behind a few cars and had to wait for them to come and move their cars and we still had to join the queues outside for checks for around 40mins.

From Calais to Dover on the 29 Dec to head to see family. Boarding was quick and easy with the car. Ferry looked quite new, departed on time, food was OK. Miss the hot service but understand why its done this way on the newer ferries. Comfy seats and and good stocked duty free shop onboard. Journey was comfortable and not too much rolling during the crossing. Arrived in time and decorating process was faultless. Looking forward to the return journey on the 2 Jan 2026.

I was in the queue for the 13.20 P+O Calais to Dover sailing today (Sunday 19th April) and my car wouldn't start due to a battery problem. A lovely lady who was directing traffic onto the ferry organised a battery jump start park and we got the car going. I stayed at the dockside running my car and charging my battery until the very last minute. She then sent us on our way. Thanks to the lovely lady we got back to Manchester safe and sound. I'd like to thank the lovely lady in the woolly hat, Calais Port Authority and P+O for getting us home. Thank you

Use them often, for the money it's the best value out there.

We had been using P&O for many years now and I can say for the fact, that they are one of the best around. Very good service provided from dales to boarding. Definitely the best Club Lounge where you will be spoiled for choice. I would say it's better then some airport lounges for sure and highly advisable. Good quality food for the Lounge. It comes with lovely private terrace where you can enjoy the views on sunny days.

I’ve always been loyal to Le Shuttle for my cross‑Channel dashes, but on this trip, the P&O Calais to Dover ferry was a quarter of the price. Curiosity (and thrift) got the better of me, and I booked my first ever ferry crossing. Well colour me converted. From the moment I rolled aboard, it felt like stepping into a floating First Class lounge. The ship was electric, literally and so smooth I half expected the Captain to pop up and say, “Cabin crew, prepare for arrival,” before I’d realised we’d left port. No clunking, no swaying if only every flight I’d worked was this serene. The seating was clean and comfortable, with plenty of space to stretch out. The food and drink on offer were excellent far cry from the sad sandwich you sometimes get mid‑travel. And the duty‑free? Enormous. Rows of spirits, wine, chocolates and perfume at genuinely tempting prices like being told the galley service was complimentary and never ending. I’ll be honest I don’t think I’ll set foot (car) in the tunnel again. P&O has won me over completely. This was service with sea views and I’m ready to book my return.

Have to be honest here, I was one of those that avoided P&O for a number of years due to bad press they had brought onto themselves. Well it is said that time heels all wounds & P&O may prove the truth of that saying. As I needed to take a short trip over to France, I felt it was time to try P&O again. When you look at the cost across the board with all the ferry companies & Eurotunnel there are no outstanding savings to be made they are all Expensive. P&O ferries however have gone all out to try & give you some value for your money that's way beyond what their competitors offer. P&O have two new Hybrid ferries & I was lucky enough to get onboard the Pioneer for both legs of my journey. I've been using ferries since the early 1970's & I noticed that the Pioneer is something different entirely. My first clue was that we had left the Port of Dover before I had realised that we were moving, that had never happened before normally you can feel the tremendous throbbing of the engines through your feet & a little of the wave action. I know all the ferries going between the UK & France have Stabilisers to improve the comfort of the journey. Well on my journeys to & from France I didn't feel anything greater than a gentle sway, not a single rock of the boat at no time did I need to hold a hand rail even going up or down the stairs. I have a fully electric VW iD.Buzz & while I didn't need to charge as my car had 79% when I boarded in France but there was a CCS charge point just where I parked on the loading deck. I don't know how much P&O charge per KWh but just having the facility on board is a game changer. I will definitely plug in the next time I have the chance. There is one area that P&O does provide very good value for money & I can recommend spending that little extra. The Club Lounge is really worthwhile spending time in, the food on offer on the buffet GREAT a real meal. I was a little cheeky with my choice for the mains but to be fair I didn't have any pudd

I usually take P&O when I travel from Dover to Calais, since they seem to have the most reasonable price and the better boats. The Liberté and Pioneer boats are very nice spacious boats.
