In today's vlog it's our last sea day onboard before we disembark the ship! We enjoy a pub quiz, have a spa day at the thermal suite and enjoy an evening of great entertainment!

    Another great vlog series, I'm inspired to look at those Norwegian cruises now, especially as we live about 30 mins from Southampton, so it would be very convenient.
    I'm echoing the thoughts of others, it would be great to see you guys take a Disney cruise, they look very fun. I regret not being able to book one of those Disney Magic at sea cruises that went from Southampton after lockdown.
    I'd like to add that I've been following your channel since 2017 and the DLP 25th anniversary trip. As much as I've enjoyed all the Disney content, it's nice to have these new experiences which you've kindly shared. Just remember the reason I watch and I'm sure many others, is because you are just a lovely couple and you always make my days better, when there's a new video to enjoy.😊

    Wow, looks beautiful. May I ask why the ship does not seem super jammed and crowded like the MSC cruise ships? Was Iona operating at half capacity? I want a cruise ship where I can avoid giant Royal Caribbean & MSC crowds. How many passengers can IONA fit?
