Creator's Key Takeaways

Back on board, we had what was probably our worst main dining room experience and not for the reasons you might think.

The sad thing is all you can hear is clinging and banging. And we just see it with a bit of for that could have been over in the corner over there.

It is really worth doing the train because it takes you to all the best places and then you can come back and do it at your leisure.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take the train in Ålesund to reach the top easily and see the best areas.
Consider the English breakfast in the MDR as it looked better than other options.

YouTube Video Description

👉 https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9mYfIMTsl4RnyWCs_L-xHpDXNKkDfqiX&si=S9CGpb12QGmHURVq Join us on our P&O Britannia Norwegian Fjords Cruise as we explore the beautiful town of Ålesund, Norway and experience our worst MDR (Main Dining Room) experience ever on board! 😱 We start the day with breakfast in the Main Dining Room (MDR) on P&O Britannia before heading up to the top decks for incredible panoramic views of Ålesund and the Norwegian Fjords. After disembarking, we take the Ålesund tourist train up to a stunning mountain viewpoint, capturing some amazing photos of this colourful coastal town. After the scenic train tour around Ålesund, we explore the town on foot and visit a few favourite spots before returning to P&O Britannia for some relaxation in the hot tub. But the evening took an unexpected turn… Our MDR dinner on P&O Britannia turned out to be the worst dining experience we've ever had at sea and not because of the food or service. The food was actually fantastic, but we were seated in a section so badly designed that it felt like eating in a kitchen. Constant clattering, banging, service stations and noise completely ruined the MDR ambience. Easily our worst P&O cruise dining experience so far! Luckily, the night improved thanks to the brilliant P&O Britannia onboard entertainment, and we still ended the day on a positive note.
