Brogan, in love with you and Benji and everything you do. You literally have converted me to do a cruise very soon. Can I just give a shout out to Benji and the wholesome incredible human being he is, you both are. The way he looks at you girl! Absolutely heart warming to see the love the friendship the respect between the two of us. I genuinely wish you every magic this life has to offer ❤
Hi Brogan. We (large extended family group) are going on Arvia in July (same itinerary as you). I never leave messages on RU-vid but really wanted to let you know how much we all enjoyed watching your vlogs. Mum and Dad are slightly in love with you and to quote Dad "she is a little ray os sunshine". They'll say to me, "put Brogan on the RU-vid". I just wanted to let you know how informative the vlog is. We loved it, thanks 😊
Hi Brogan - please send best wishes to Benji on his wonderful zipper!! I had good in the heart surgery when I was 14 (am now 61) and always felt self conscious about my scar but now embrace it as a symbol of that special club we belong to xxx you Have inspired me to go on a cruise!!!
I get so anxious about being travel sick that I’ve never been on a cruise, and not sure I will. But your vlogs make me want to live on one 😅 I’ve loved watching this. You’re such a fab team, and I love how you’re never too serious 😂 you’re honestly fab. And also as a fellow foodie I LOVE seeing the menus for everywhere x
Amazing to see how easy it is to get on the ship at Southampton and start the holiday, lovely food, the Sushi 🍣 looks amazing, what a Tapas tour at La Corina!
AWESOME!! You have got to be the Queen of Cruise vlogs Brogan!! And there's much more to come after this one! It's the little moments that I love too, including @45:15...oh the look on your face!!
Another fab Vlog! So good to see Benji looking so well and able to join you on your adventures again. FYI, you looked fabulous on the black tie evening, your hair was just the right side of naturally beautiful. Can't wait for the next one 🫶
Nice to meet you both. We’ve just come off a Med cruise, so have the cruise blues!! It looks like a perfect ship. We’ve never cruised P&O - it looks lovely. You have some great info on this Vlog. We look for we do to seeing more from you. Cheers 🍻
Hi myself and my wife love cruising and I always look at vlogs on RU-vid. We are thinking of med cruise on arvia in September 14 nts love p&I Came across your vlog and loved it so detailed and you both make it amazing to watch. This is the first time I have ever commented on RU-vid we a are both early 60s thank you very much.
First of all a massive congratulations to a beautiful couple who found happiness together and now married ❤. I would like to ask you a question regarding Arvia. We have booked a luxury forward facing cabin 9.103. I know that in your video you stayed in a forward facing cabin, how did you find your balcony?
OH MY GOODNESS!!! what a brilliantly immersive, informative vlog!! my family and I are about to join Arvia in a week and I've been watching various videos / vlogs about the ship, but this has been the most enjoyable one by far. You are both so natural, relaxed and down to earth that I felt I was there with you exploring. I can't wait to view the the rest of your adventures on the ship ...I'm getting so excited now.
Great to see how much fun you are both having. ZARA is Spanish (clothes/ item tags specify "LA Coruña") Sending you both a massive hug from Madrid (Madrid is also a must....a romantic getaway❤)
I can’t believe I found you when researching dog friendly holidays, we are getting a little puppy in October. Then I found you love Disney, love cruises and treat Benji like I do my husband you are amazing brogan. Glad to see Benji healing after his surgery, your positivity, outlook on life and absolutely on point organisational skills make my day! I would put a label on my husband if I could😅
We have just binged watched your 4 parts as we have booked the med cruise for May 2025. I just wondered if the drinks package is worth it? We are travelling wtih 2 children. Also looking for the metal hooks that you use on the walls which ones are best? Thank you xxxx
❤ Brogan &Benji can we please go on a cruise with you both...not only do you know EVERYTHING there is to know but you have a blast doing it. Amazing vlog. And Brogan, Love how Benji was just grabbing and playing with your hair while you were vlogging🥰 A beautifully amazing pair😇
Brogan I am so happy and excited for your Cruise vlogs! You always do an incredible job explaining everything and thank you for sharing your travels with us. You are amazing!
Hi love the positive attitude you have to the cruise. On the top of your blog it says “paid partnership “ (something like that) what does that mean . Debbie
Thanks Debbie. It means I was paid by P&O Cruises to produce this vlog (I’m a proud ambassador!), an advertorial if you like, but they allow me to share all my own opinions and plan the trip myself 😊
Didn’t even realise you were on board the same time As us and clicked on the vlog excited to see our holiday from a different perspective and then I spotted us in the background 😂 x
Super excited I’ve found your channel and your vlogs! You have a great style and I love the simply edited vlogs without too much music when it’s not necessary. Loved how much you were able to show. We sail on Arvia in December so this is just the preparation I needed! Thank you!
Hey Brogan 🤗 absolutely loved this vlog - you always make me want to do a cruise but my stomach is just too sensitive 🤢🫣 I’m glad you both had a fab first couple of days - I cannot wait for the next 3 vlogs ♥️ xxx
I finally got round to watching this new series of videos and honestly Brogan, this is some next level filming that you’ve done! As much as I have a special place for your Disney videos, these ones are some of the best ones you’ve ever made I think! Leveling on up 😊 I also love how Benji is becoming your co-host 😂! ❤❤
Are there water slides on this ship? We’re planning a Mediterranean cruise for next summer and although ports are important to me the kids want water slides
Hi Brogan I recently started watching your videos. Your life looks like a permanent holiday. I assume that P&O pay for your cruises. Your videos are very detailed and you must be a super organised person. You make it look easy but you must really work hard and then you have all your sponsorships. You love your clothes and are quite curvy and very confident. I think you are a great role model for younger woman. Your packing seems extreme to me but you make it work. I enjoy watching your packing videos. Feel I am on the cruise with you. You are a lucky girl and I can imagine very determined. Thank you. 😀
❤ We love watching you and Benji explore together. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us all! What eyebrow product do you use? They always look so flawless and watching you do them makes me feel I'm using the wrong messy product! 🙈 Xo
Brogan, benji was right - you looked great on formal night, the hair really suited you! I just got back from same itiniary pretty much as you guys ten days ago. It was my second cruise, my first being Norwegian fjords on Iona. Had SUCH an amazing time. Loving your reviews!
Just found you last night….. Love your content…. We will be sailing from Southampton in June, any recommendations to get to the port from LHR? Also recommendations of things to do, will be in London 3 days prior to cruising
We are wanting too book a p&o on this ship but have never been on a cruise before, so they just leave your bags by the door. Has there ever been problems ? Isit not a worry someone could take it xx
Been meaning to ask this - knowing you collect pins and have been on Arvia - did you manage to get all the 6th Street Diner pins and what are they all - i only managed to get the Miami Vice one, but wondered which other ones there were.
Every time you have a cruise series out it really makes me want to book a cruise. Definitely think I need to take the plunge and just book. 😁 Great first vlog,I can’t wait to watch the rest. 💜
Brilliant video. Me and partner are thinking about trying are hand at cruising what do no fly one tho we had really bad flight back from majorca my partner is scared stiff about flying again 😢
Cruising is my absolute favorite type of vacation! We have decided to book our next cruise with P&O after all the Brogan vlogs. We just can't decide on where lol. This ship looks stunning! ❤
Love you Brogan....watched you from the start xx I have my own channel now and it's gained subs very quickly. Keep doing what you're doing and never change x x x My identical twin sister and I love you x You're very special to my sis too....and she's watched you from the start x she always comments on and likes your vlogs ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🫂🫶😍❤️❤️❤️
Loving this series Brogan, we will be visiting La Coruna on a RC cruise next year and my hubbie is going off the idea 😥, but hopefully seeing how you guys spent your day has helped change him back to being excited about going! New subscriber here. Have a great Thursday x
I came across you your video by mistake, but enjoying it very much, can you tell me the time of year you were on Ariva. Also what the bay of biscay was like going down to LaCoruna.we were on Ariva last year from 27/10-11/11/23 the bay of biscay was very rough, so didn’t see dolphins or whales, we did see flying fish, but think that was after Gran Canaria. Looking forward to seeing others videos of yours. Such a lovely couple you are. While looking at your video actually thought I was onboard.
I have followed all 4 of the Arvia vlogs, whilst recuperating from surgery, as considering going on her March 2025 to the Caribbean. I have P&O Azura to the Canaries just before Christmas this year and the Fjords on Iona in April 2024…not travelled with P&O before so these vlogs have helped massively. Thank you for the cruise tips…pop up laundry basket and laundry sheets purchased! 😊
Hi Brogan, firstly thank you so very much for the first 3 RU-vid video's, very informative and incredibly helpful. I have a couple of questions if I may? With the duty free shop, if you purchase say a bottom of Barcardy,are you able to take it away with you? Or do you have to collect it before you leave the ship on the final day. Secondly,we have paid for the wifi plus booked quite a few restaurants before we go (Sunday 23rd of July) these have appeared on my credit card already!! We have £790 on board spend. Will this come off our final bill? Thank you so very much. Dale & Belinda.
Hey Brogan & Benji - when you see this you will be on your 1/2 world cruise for your wedding 💒honeymoon ❤and 30th Birthday 🥳 I love how relaxed you are when blogging and how you show so much of what you are up to on the cruise. Would you mind sharing which camera you use, it is so clear and seems waterproof? and the sound is amazing as you dont use external microphones. Wishing you both all of the very best for an amazinxg cruise x
We’re on Arvia in 76 days time.. On deck 15 not very far from where you were.. 2nd cruise for us…1st 2week one…….we’re so excited….. Nice to see everything is back to normal…. The portion sizes have definitely shrunk!! 👍🇬🇧
How exciting that you'll be getting married on a cruise! Congratulations. My partner and I are currently in the process of researching cruise weddings...probably on Arvia :-) Would love to hear of your experience of booking and any pro tips you may have :-) xxx
Thank you Brogan and Benji, after watching this vlog we have taken the bull by the horns and booked onto Arvia next year for the Med. Your vlogs are so educational and inspiring. I look forward to following your adventures. P.s. has anyone else mentioned that Benji looks and sounds like Prince Harry? Hope I didn't offend with that comment
This looks like SO much fun!!! And good weather too!! Can I ask if there was any one trying to up-sell products in the Spa please? Loved this Vlog!! Thank you So much !!! New subscriber here 👋🏻
Really enjoyed part 1 and 2 which we watched today, will be watching the other parts next week :) I finally got round to uploading mine from the same cruise, not as professional as yours mind! Was really interesting to see what you got up to at ports and pick up tips for next year :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MIHhDQx4vIc.html
This Vlog was sooooo much fun!!!! Definitely makes me excited to go cruising next year!!! Love the vlogs and y’all are too cute together!!! I hope to have a relationship like y’all’s one day and I can’t wait to see where y’all go next!!! Sending y’all lots of love ♥️
Absolutely loved watching your vlogs from Arvia. Booked our first ever cruise for June2025 and picked up so many tips and ideas already. Look forward to seeing even more in future.x
Looks like a really lovely cabin - I've always been really impressed with how P&O have designed the cabins on both Iona and Arvia - they seem to be cabins that should age really nicely!
Just watched your cover of the cabins. I stayed on Iona recently in a single inside cabin. Whilst it's comfortable and has everything you need, just a note that it is very small. This won't be an issue if you only use the cabin to shower and sleep!
I am loving starting this series of videos today after booking a 2 week cruise on Arvia for summer 2025 this morning! A long wait ahead but plenty of time to plan our trip after watching yours and Benji’s trip. So exciting. Lots of brilliant information and tips from just the first video so thank you. I am looking forward to the rest.
Hi, can I ask how strict you found the dress code is for men? I heard it's very posh at times, and I would like to be more smart but relaxed rather than pinned in a suit every evening.
I’ve looked for a cruise like this but it’s not very clear regarding food, is it automatically included or do you have to book a food/drink package separately?
Included in your cruise: Buffet restaurant (Horizon), 2 x Main dining restaurants (Meridian & Zenith), 6th Street Diner, The Olive Grove and Taste360 Poolside Grill & Bar. Water, fruit juice, tea and coffee drinks are all included too. Drinks packages are also available, or you can pay as you go. For everything else, you can see it clearly for Arvia here - www.pocruises.com/cruise-ships/arvia/dining Hope that helps, but please feel free to ask if you have any more questions! xx
Nope! I've just searched on the website for you and for the same dates for June next year, on the same route on Arvia, an inside cabin (for 2 adults) starts at £1,998. A sea view is £2,698. A balcony is £2,898 and a Deluxe is £3,798. Hope that helps! It's really easy to price up via the website - www.pocruises.com/
Love watching you both on cruises. Lovely seeing Benji doing well and happy. Benji is a real romantic, when he said how lovely you looked, not many man like him these days, your very lucky. You and Benji just radiant happiness. Your have so much to look back on when your older, all these wonderful memories. Enjoy it while you can. Cant wait for the next one x
Hi Brogan, I just found your channel through my recommendations. And I've loved every video I've seen of yours so far. Especially the Disneyland Paris ones as I'm going there for the first time in September, I need all of the tips and tricks I can get 😂 Looking forward to the rest of the cruise vlogs!
