We were on this cruise in a Mid ship balcony cabin, we were also first timers, and loved every minute of it. By the first sea day we were already looking what cruise to go on next. Great video, amusing thing the other P&O ship we passed as we left Southampton had another flogger we follow on it filming our departure.

We didn’t really need them in the end but definitely better to have them and not need them then not have them and need them ☺️ Thanks so much for watching 🥰

We went on the same cruise in April, the ship is amazing, the staff was really lovely and friendly,the only problem we had was gale force winds which made the ship very rocky that I found quite frightening,but I would definitely do it again.
@JamesandElliesAdventures
@JamesandElliesAdventures 29 дней назад
It’s great to hear you also had a lovely time on your cruise :) yes we had the same and missed one of our ports due to extreme weather but I must say although we could feel the ship moving it didn’t make us feel ill which was a massive bonus but I understand that it can be quite frightening!

Looks like you guys got lucky with the seas! Stavanger was our last stop on our cruise and we remember those cute little houses right next to the ship and we were in the Starbucks too! Can’t wait to see the rest! Hope you’ve both been well! 🫶🏻

We did have crazy weather one of the days in the next video but we had our sea sick tablets so didn’t feel much to be honest and Iona is a big big ship! Stavanger is cute right?!

Thoroughly enjoyed watching you both experience your first cruise. I took my son and grandson on 7 day cruise to Portugal and Spain last year and my son from being totally not interested in cruising, thoroughly enjoyed it. (we are all from Bournemouth area). I was on same cruise as you 2 weeks earlier and the snow was blizzard like in Alesund. You sound like you will be regular cruisers now. There is nothing like unpacking once and then seeing so many interesting places not to mention how much there is to do onboard, the fabulous entertainment and wonderful food. Thank you for the fantastic video, I appreciate how much time goes into making it.

Thank you so much for watching. This was like a taster cruise for us incase we didn’t like it but we honestly had the best time and can’t wait to get cruising again. So glad to hear your son also loved his first cruise. I hope you had a lovely time on your cruise. Norway weather is wild isn’t it that’s mad you had snow in Ålesund 😯 We love to explore new places but hate packing and unpacking all the time so cruising definitely is the best of both worlds we love it 🥰 and the food was a little too good we both put on a fair amount of weight 🤣 Thank you again for watching and your kind words.

We’re cruise converts and love it now! Can’t wait to do some cruises in 2025 🤩. Wow 49th cruise is impressive 👌🏼 hope we can reach that number hope you got a good one planned for your 50th cruise?

Iona is a massive ship. We did the fjords 2 years ago, and cant wait to go back next year.

Iona is massive makes it even more massive when you walk in the wrong direction to your cabin too like we did one day and thought why are the cabin numbers getting higher adding more steps in 😂. We would definitely do another Norwegian fjords cruise in the future with another cruise line. Thanks so much for watching 💙

I am Norwegian from Stavanger, and somehow I find it fascinating to see what foreigners think of the city and Norway in general. We see cruise ships in town all the time, but rarely ever speak to anyone of the cruisers.

We have never been on a cruise either but it looks like such good fun 🤩 there is soooo much going on all the time, love a bit of Bingo and as I said on IG you both looked stunning on Celebration Night. I am glad you really enjoyed your first experience cruising, looking forward to more, more more 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Your room view at the front of the ship 🚢 is AMAZING 🤩 Do you know what….we had the same weather wise for 4 days In Skiathos…..the one jumper and cardigan we travelled in became far to handy 😂😂😂😂😂

We went the following week, and the weather was fabulous every day, and our thermals never got unpacked. We should have taken more summer clothes. Didn’t like The Quays or Horizon. Wish we’d discovered the band in the 710 club sooner, they were top class. Didn’t enjoy The Greatest Days show, so didn’t revisit the theatre. Food was hit and miss, apart from Sindhu which we absolutely loved so went twice. We walked miles each port day. Trips we booked locally: Briksdal Glacier Troll Cars in the morning and Laon Skylift in the afternoon at Olden. Rib ride taking in the island villages in Haugesund. We got a taxi out the the Swords in Stavanger and walked back. Spent time in the colourful street later. Walked the 410 steps in Alesund. Walked out to the Rising Tides in Haugesund in the afternoon, stopping for a drink (only one small beer) in the Irish pub on the way back. Leaving there I slipped and managed to badly twist my ankle and later found out two small bone fractures. Thankfully it was the end of the final port day. Had to hobble about for the rest of the time on board. It was a fantastic holiday. We saved money by booking the excursions through local companies, rather than pay the high P&O prices. We’re not usually cruise people.
