YouTube Video Description

Today on P&O Iona, during our P&O Iona Norwegian Fjords cruise, we decided to try something we’ve never done before on a cruise. It’s a bit of a risk - and we’re not entirely sure whether it’s going to be a great decision or something we’ll regret! (Vlog 4). While sailing onboard P&O Cruises Iona, we step outside our comfort zone to try something new during our cruise experience on this incredible P&O Iona cruise ship. Sometimes the best cruise moments come from doing something unexpected…. but other times it can feel like a gamble. So was this something we’re glad we did on P&O Iona, or should we have just played it safe? As our P&O Iona Norwegian Fjords cruise continues, we also share more of what life is like onboard P&O Cruises Iona, from the atmosphere around the ship to more glimpses of the P&O Iona dining, bars and restaurants that make this ship so popular with UK cruisers. Sailing through the Norwegian Fjords on P&O Iona offers plenty to experience both onboard and ashore, and every day seems to bring something a little different.
