[@jeanmarietaylor6355]

Brogan I am loving watching these vlogs so much more than a vlog like a three part traveller guide , something that struck my watching you and Benji in the whole of this world isn’t it amazing how you met someone that has common lives and sense of humour I love watching you two together xxx

[@brogantatexo]

Aw thank you so much! Benji is my dream man and I can't wait to marry him xx

[@karent9887]

Another amazing vlog …i really enjoy watching what you both get up to, you’re such a joy to watch

[@brogantatexo]

Thanks so much 😊

[@JamesandElliesAdventures]

I’ve never had the desire to cruise before but having watched these vlogs it’s now at the top of my list to cruise the fjords :) thank you so much for sharing 🥰

[@brogantatexo]

Aw I love that, thank you so much! xx

[@maggiehutchinson2084]

So obsessed with this cruise series! It's been so in depth I truly feel like I'm there too, can't wait for the next one!

[@amypriest7751]

This has made me 100% convinced that my husband and I need to do a cruise with P&O! Norway has been on my bucket list for so long and the prices are very reasonable, especially considering all that is included. Thank you for sharing this wonderful trip!

[@stellaasmrandrews985]

I'm loving watching these vlogs. The ship looks amazing. What some lovely places your visiting. Quite spectacular how the ship docked just by the road. Look forward to your vlogs. Till the next one x

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you Stella!

The Sail Away from Olden is The Best ❤️❤️❤️

Norway is beautiful and unique country

[@anasky00]

Another absolutely perfect vlog!

[@alisonevans6121]

Totally loved your video's we are doing that cruise this year and it's good to get a heads up on it all. We were on the Iona for her maiden voyage and had one of the suites, it was amazing a whole lot better than I had ever imagined.

[@daniellebaker8186]

Your vlogs are amazing! I went to Norway a long time ago, Hammerfest - which is right at the top, and it’s such a beautiful country. You’ve done it justice. Looking forward to part 3 x

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you!! x

[@chloespicksley]

Love these videos so much - they convinced me to go myself!! 😄 Norway is so beautiful!

[@kathyslocombe1182]

AMAZING video and so inspiring for us as we're crossing the pond from Vancouver, Canada next week for a Norwegian Fjords cruise - same ports as on this video. We're actually on a B2B, continuing on a Scandinavia cruise, onboard Celebrity Silhouette for a total of 19 days, out of Southampton. Your footage is breathtaking! Thank you.

[@brogantatexo]

Aw amazing!! Have a great time! xx

[@sarahsmart4128]

Stavanger is one of my favourite place to go. Love the little houses. We have just booked to go on Iona in a few week's. I am now on count down

[@irishfergal]

The hiking video is amazing (more please). And I'd love to see your future video of hiking in spectacular Yosemite National Park. You and Bengi on top of Half Dome!

Welcome to the 2nd of THREE CRUISE VLOGS! We had the most incredible trip to Norway and wanted to say a big thank you to P&O Cruises for the opportunity. If you're interested in booking your own P&O Cruises holiday, find out more here → www.pocruises.com/ 🛳 🌊

[@hannahoshaughnessy3935]

Ive been thinking about going anyway, but you’ve just sealed the deal for me!

[@brogantatexo]

You will not regret it! xx

[@Hollybryonyforder]

These vlogs are sooooo helpful! We’ve booked for July and this is helping me plan! My partner says I’m spoiling all the surprises though!

[@thelonecruiser423]

Hi Brogan Tate, hope you're well :) - I just wanted to say thanks so much for giving 'The Beach House' the credit it deserves! I went on my 1st ever cruise on Iona in Winter 2022, and loved 'The Beach House' so much I went 3 times across my 7 night cruise! And, I've been a bit of a cruising community 'Beach House' stan ever since! After giving it some thought, I recon I know why at times it can be marmite for P&O guests, and think it's because it is so different from any of their other eateries (with a focus on Latin American & Caribbean Flavours), and so a lot of it is down to personal preference. I also believe that it and Sindhu are two of the only speciality restaurants which have differing menu designs and make up across their ships at the same time, and so that might be why the menu seemed different. I totally get what you mean about it feeling some what like a chain, but in many ways I think it makes the restaurant feel a lot more professional, and almost like somewhere you could eat on land, which I personally believe is the sign of a great, transitive restaurant. So thankful for all the stereotype breaking young blood you and your partner bring to this community, and may you both keep being you! :) Best Wishes, The Lone Cruiser

[@brogantatexo]

Hey! I agree! I think it might be one of my favourite restaurants. That lava steak is AMAZING. aw that's so kind, I appreciate your thoughts and support so much! xx

[@ArnieRelffe-Arnold]

Hiya Brogan. Love the vlogs...am addicted to them. One question please....do you know the name of the song that's playing in the background while you're showing your helicopter footage please? So haunting...I love it x

[@abimay8321]

Hey! Did you book the private yacht through P&O? I can only see the standard one?

[@manogh5844]

What a country what a vlogs g, your a superstar

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you!

[@Glenfiner]

Hi Brogan and Benji, great interesting vlogs, so exciting. Is P&O cruises the same company as P&O ferries? If they are I’d be very reluctant to use them because of how they treated their staff. If not it may be worth making the distinction just so nobody is put off from booking. I know a little late but Congratulations on your engagement x

[@donnarichards3625]

No connection. Brogan has stated this a few times X

[@brogantatexo]

Hi Glenn, as Donna. has said P&O Cruises are NOT associated with P&O Ferries. I decided not to include that in these vlogs as there is already plenty of information out there from P&O themselves x

[@naz6827]

The epicurean was closed. Xx

[@janewilliams2960]

Brogan watch your Norway vlogs but on the second one can you please give me the details of the private yatch experience and what sort of cost. As wit is our 21st wedding anniversary and I would love to do this when we go in may. Many thanks Tracy

[@brogantatexo]

Hi Jane! You're best to reach out to P&O Cruises direct so they can provide you with the prices. and availability. Happy Anniversary, have a wonderful cruise! x

[@AprilSlocombe]

The scenery in all the places you visited was picturesque, Benji's comment about the rocks reminding him of the trolls in Frozen was funny and the helicopter ride looked breathtaking.

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you April, haha! xx

[@alexharvey9063]

Wow...so beautiful!! Thank you for the vlog... Just what I needed this evening 😊

[@brogantatexo]

Glad you enjoyed it! xx

[@johnycc5728]

Not sure if you’ve covered this already but is it worth letting viewers know that P&O Cruises are not affiliated with P&O Ferries.. I have to be honest your videos have really sold a P&O cruise to us however ( until I just researched it ) I was morally dubious about supporting a company that sacked all its British staff. So to find out that the companies are completley different and not in any ways affiliated I am now certain I’m booking a P&O cruise! Thank you! Great vlogger!!!

[@jacquelinekinnaird6994]

Lee Mead is Denise Van Outens ex, they have a daughter together. Think he’s most well known for being Joseph in the west end, he may have been on a reality show years ago but I’m not 100%. This cruise looks amazing!

Amazing, good choices Tanya!! Have the best time. Thank you xx

[@swedishpsychopath8795]

It hurts me as a swede to admit this since swedes and danes has tried to steal Norways thunder for such a long time: But vikings came orginally from Norway. This video proves it beyond any doubt. The fjords FORCED the vikings to make boats to be able to travel inside Norway crossing the hundreds of fjords in Norway. Sweden and Denmark are both without fjords - so there was no need to invent boats there. Your video just made me realize this fact.

[@ikrobiee]

Norway looks beautiful, definately adding that to my list of places to travel. Thank you for another lovely travel vlog.

[@brogantatexo]

It really is! Thank you lovely!

[@mariannetuite7411]

Norway is absolutely breathtaking. As a solo traveller in a wheelchair it’s not a destination I think I’d manage to visit, so I really appreciate you documenting so much. Thank you

[@brogantatexo]

Hi Marianne, thank you for sharing that and I'm sorry that you feel it's not accessible. P&O pride themselves on ensuring there are no barriers stopping you from seeing the world and enjoying unforgettable experiences at many wonderful destinations. We saw many people in wheelchairs exploring the towns. P&O have specific accessible shore experiences, including a range of activities that have been designed to accommodate your needs. This means you have the freedom to explore more places in a safe way, and if you're travelling with companions they can join you too! There's more information available here - www.pocruises.com/accessibility/ashore/accessible-shore-excursions any further questions, do not hesitate to reach out to P&O Cruises for support x

[@dianejohnson6756]

Videos are great..I'm a solo wheelchair user and would love to sail on her...think I will contact p&o and get info on accessible tours and suites.

[@mariannetuite7411]

@@brogantatexo Thanks for the information about the excursions, it’s great that they offer options for people who would be okay. Unfortunately, after 20+ years of travelling across large parts of Europe and the US on my own I know I wouldn’t manage in Norway (at least the areas that I’m most interested in) This wasn’t really about looking for ways around that, just a thank you for sharing so much that I wouldn’t otherwise get to see.

First night was to see Joe McElderry and that night I had the mushroom ‘scallops’ to start with then had the beef for my main and the pistachio strudel for dessert. I had tried my mum’s sea bass to see if I liked it as I don’t eat a lot of seafood and I did so had that the next night we went In there for a dinner and show to see Kevin Simms, I had the same dessert both nights and the second nights starter was the ham hock. Was absolutely delicious food, I was impressed. I actually plucked up the courage to talk to Kevin Simms too after the show and got a photo with him,lol. Xx
