Such amazing landscapes in Norway. Seeing the Glacier was special. We came home and saw the movie, enjoyed it 😊 need to just see the full theatre musical now. Thank you for watching. X
You know you’re in for a treat when you get a 44 minute video from one of my favourite TH-camrs!! And is it me or am I getting serious Frozen vibes from this vlog?? Such scenting views and a beautiful place - thank you for uploading!
Another fun-filled vlog 😁 It would have been great to hear Captain Wesley(?) finish his announcement with a toodlepipski 😁 Hope you're enjoying editing these as much as we're enjoying watching them 😁
😂😂 when I first heard him say toodle I thought hang on? But then he stopped. I’ve loved putting them together. We get to relive the trip over again. Glad you’re enjoying them. Thank you for watching x
Hiya 😀 We we’re on an excursion from our ship so they arranged the bus transfer. The cafe was at the entrance to the walk to the Glacier. Think they put on the cakes specially for the cruise excursion. Thank you for watching 😀 x
We did a cruise to the Fjords on the Disney Magic last year with our good friends Emma and Jon. It was the absolute best! We have really been enjoying watching this cruise series, it’s brought back so many great memories for us!
Went to Briksdal Glacier from Olden whilst on a cruise on Britannia about 8 years ago (when she was brand new). We got the local bus (which stopped on the road that passes the port area) to the glacier for about 5 EUR each way IIRC (a lot cheaper than the P&O tour that did the same thing). I loved the sail in and out of the fjord (which was all in daylight as it was June when we went and it didn't really get dark). Not done Iona or Arvia yet (wife isn't keen on the really big ships, I want to try it!) but will be on Britannia again in November in the Caribbean. Have enjoyed your vlogs, thanks!
That’s a cool tip in terms of the local bus. A good alternative. It was a big ship but it didn’t feel too big if that makes sense. 😂 we really enjoyed it and would recommend. Thank you for watching x
Did I hear Europa Park mentioned? I would love to see you guys do a vlog series from there and don't forget to visit the water park Rulantica next door. Loving the cruise series, shame it's nearly finished.
Oh my, your dinner looked amazing! and I love that you can order breakfast to your room, so worth the £2.50 when you’re up and out early. All the entertainment is top notch, loved the Take That musical, I saw it a couple of times on the last UK tour. You have been so lucky with the weather ❤ Thank you for sharing!
The breakfast in your room was lovely, I love that that is an option especially for the days you’re up early for excursions. We recently went to see the greatest days film after seeing the musical onboard. It’s a really great musical! Xx
Highly entertaining video. If you like the Norwegian fjords, I highly recommend taking a cruise with Havila Voyages. They sail the old postal route from Bergen to Kirkenes and back. It's a 12 day cruise, but not a luxurious as P&O though. But you get to go beyond the Polar Circle and visit the North Cape. And if you travel between October and March, you gave a chance to see the Northern Light. And a RIB boat tour is so much fun. Recently, I took one on the Geiranger fjord and it was magical. The fjord is an UNESCO world heritage site and a must see for your next visit to Norway. And as for city trip itineraries: Bergen, Oslo and Trondheim are among my favorite Norwegian cities. Have a safe trip back home!
Thank you so much for all of this info. Great to get recommendations for possible future trips. We appreciate you taking the time to write it. We’d love to do a RIB boat tour, they look like so much fun. I feel like I went to Geiranger when I worked on ships. That name definitely rings a bell. Thank you for watching x
I went on the Iona a week before you guys! It was the most incredible holiday❤ We went kayaking in olden and our tour guide said that the creators of frozen spent months in olden studying the glacier & mountains. What I loved was this interesting fact - there was an arranged marriage on top of one of the mountains and the bride decided against it & left her crown on top of the mountain. And that’s what elsa’s crown is based on☺️I hope you’ve had a fabulous holiday! Xxx
Omg I love that fact! It literally felt like you had stepped into the set of Frozen, it was so cool! Kayaking is high on our bucket list if we ever do the cruise again, it looked like so much fun. Glad you had such a great time too , we miss it so much! Xxx
Great video as always that walk looked amazing would not be good for me though as I not good at steep hills and I get tired very easily , but was great views . The ship looks beautiful
Very glad we bought hiking boots before the trip. Those really helped us out. They have trolleys to the top I believe too. 😊 the ship was amazing. We couldn’t get over the size. Thank you for watching x
Hiya 😊 I’m afraid we’re not on board anymore so we won’t be able to. We loved the musicians on the ship though. All immensely talented. Thank you for watching x
It was incredible to see, I found this on their website “When the glacier melts, it swells many waterfalls so they thunder and cascade down the mountainsides in Briksdalen valley.” Thank you for watching 😊 x
We don’t think so. Not as full time crew as we were before. We’re extremely grateful for the time we had onboard but we love our land life. 😊 thank you for watching x
Hiya 😊 thank you for watching and for the comment. We didn’t keep an eye on that however I did find this article which I hope helps. glutenfreetravelwithme.com/po-iona-one-week-norwegian-fjords-cruise-september-2022 x
Norway looks stunning, especially the glacier. I saw Greatest Days recently and enjoyed it

Definitely big inspirations for Frozen. It was such a cinematic place to visit. Thank you for watching x
The fountain looks like the one in Disneyland Paris in front of it’s a small world because of the Little boat on top haha 😊
We never thought of that but now you say it 😂 thank you for watching x

Hiya 😊 our dates were 2nd-9th March. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching x
I saw a buggy sign, did you see many kiddos in buggies ? We are both pretty fit but was the ground flattish ? In terms of pebbly. ? Great vlog 😊
Did you book your glacier trip with p&o directly?
Hiya 😀 yeah we booked it through the site ahead of the cruise. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching x
Absolutely stunning scenery. It looks like heaven on earth. We are really enjoying this series of vlogs. The ship looks gorgeous too 😍
Thank you!! It really was such a special trip, the scenery was breathtaking 😍
How lucky were you with the weather on your hike..
We were indeed. It was a lovely day to do the hike. Thank you for watching x
What bus did you use and which cafe was it?
Hiya 😀 We we’re on an excursion from our ship so they arranged the bus transfer. The cafe was at the entrance to the walk to the Glacier. Think they put on the cakes specially for the cruise excursion. Thank you for watching 😀 x

A Disney cruise would be something we’d love to do. Gotta save our pennies. They looks so magical. Thank you so much for watching 😊 x

Yes we would love to go there! Looks epic! Thanks for watching ☺️
I was on this cruise! Fell down and injured my ankle on the way down from the glacier 😂 but would 100% do it again, so gorgeous!
Oh no! We hope you were okay. It certainly was beautiful wasn’t it. ❤️ thank you for watching x

Hi, please could you post a video of the pianist at the Crows Nest? He’s my brother in law and I’d love to see him play!
Hiya 😊 I’m afraid we’re not on board anymore so we won’t be able to. We loved the musicians on the ship though. All immensely talented. Thank you for watching x
Was nice to meet you and a bit of a shock to spot ourselves in the background at the silent disco!😂😂😂
It was so lovely to meet you too! 😊 we hope you enjoyed the rest of your cruise x
I’m absolutely mind blown 🤯 by how much water is coming down and that’s just it melting - am I right?
It was incredible to see, I found this on their website “When the glacier melts, it swells many waterfalls so they thunder and cascade down the mountainsides in Briksdalen valley.” Thank you for watching 😊 x
Thanks for a very informative vlog. I really like your relaxed style xx
Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching 😊 x
Thanks so much,we are going next year and this has made me even more excited.
Thank you for watching 😊 sure you’ll have a glorious time on your trip x
Would either you like to work on a cruise ship again
We don’t think so. Not as full time crew as we were before. We’re extremely grateful for the time we had onboard but we love our land life. 😊 thank you for watching x
Do they have gluten free options?
