P&O Iona - Eating Our Way Around The Ship! Showing You The Free/Included Restaurants On Board

So what is one thing that's pretty important on a cruise as let's face it you're gonna be spending alot of time doing it ... well you will if you're like us 😁 Eating of course!
In this video we show you what food is free/ Included on board the P&O Iona ship. And when we say free well obviously it's included in the price paid initially but there is no extra charges onboard that may occur in other Restaurants in the ship(look out for other videos on some of these)
There is plenty of places to eat onboard Iona as you will see in the video. So sit back relax and sorry in advance if we make you hungry!
What was your favourite place to eat on Iona that was included? Or if you haven't been on the ship yet which are you most looking forward to trying?
Thanks so much for watching we really appreciate each and everyone of you. And if you haven't already don't forget to subscribe and give this video a big thumbs up if you enjoyed it.
There is still more Iona content to come but we will leave a link of our playlist down below to watch previous Videos from this cruise.

[@lesliereynolds4492]

Love that you showed all the free restaurants. Usually people only show the actual ones that cost more. Your views were beautiful.

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Thank you so much Leslie, we did do a couple of the paid ones as well but think the main one was to show what was included as these cruises can sometimes be very expensive and think people want to know what they are getting before they start adding on extras 😁

[@fairysrreal180]

Best detailed review on YT for the majority of people searching for answers of what is included for free, especially when you are on a budget.

[@antonywoodger4258]

We went to Norway on the Iona a couple of weeks ago for our 1st cruise. We loved it, We liked eating in the main restaurants which were lovely great waiter / waitress service as me and my wife don’t cope well with the hustle and bustle of a buffet. Although my 13 year old son ate his own weight in Katsu curry during the week. We are now hooked and have just booked to go into the med on the Arvia next year.

[@wendynew2189]

I loved the fish and chips the best loved the ship

[@maureenwright7001]

For any veggies there is plenty of choice in the free range. If you go to Taste 360 they will cook a fresh veggie burger for you if you ask them. My Hubby’s vegan I eat fish but not meat and can eat no problems. 😀👍

[@gravey1955]

That's the best on board along with the boardwalk . The ship is OK but after all the cruises we have done with p and o I don't think they want any loyalty cruisers anymore ,no deck entertainment at sea,no cocktail party ,no cruise loyalty party ,the next one booked with p and o to new Orleans, miami,mexico etc will be our last . Better lines to suit us out there
