Creator's Key Takeaways

One of the standout features of Iona is the SkyDome. This is a huge glass-roofed space right at the top of the ship that really becomes one of the main hubs of activity.

The 710 Club is one of the best live music venues we've experienced at sea.

Iona is a very big ship with a lot of passengers on board, and there are definitely times when you feel that.

For us, the answer is yes. There's a lot to enjoy on this ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book popular restaurants early, especially on sea days.
Take time on the first day to explore the ship layout.
Keep an eye on the daily planner for activities.
