Creator's Key Takeaways

We started in Portsmouth, Amsterdam, Norway, Scotland, and Iceland.

I highly suggest that. Don't fly in the day of. It's a lot of stress.

Get the hiking boots. Don't skip on the hiking boots.

We had the best time at the Peep Show. That was super fun.

Don't fly in the day of your cruise to avoid stress.
Pack waterproof gear, including hiking boots, waterproof pants, and a jacket.
Book the Upstairs Pancake House in Amsterdam at least one week in advance.
Read excursion descriptions carefully to understand what is included.

YouTube Video Description

We’ve got so much to cover on this Virgin Voyages England to Iceland & Norway cruise that we had to break it into three parts! In Part 1, we’re taking you through the start of the journey, sailing out of Portsmouth, England, an overnight in Amsterdam, a day in Bergen, Norway, a stop in the Shetland Islands, Scotland, and a relaxing sea day as we made our way toward Iceland. This isn’t just a port rundown. We’re sharing what was worth it, what wasn’t, and giving you the inside deets on whether this might have been our best Virgin Voyages cruise ever. Stick around for Part 2 (all about Iceland) and Part 3, where we wrap it all up with final thoughts and what we’d do differently next time! Shop Virgin Voyages essentials!
