P&O Iona Spain & Portugal Cruise - Day 4 [31st January 2023] - Vigo, Spain

[@cruzntimewithaidan]

At least the weather is better in Vigo. Looks like a nice walk around the post area. Nice sail away from Vigo.

[@CaptureCruising]

We're certainly not in the UK anymore with weather like that! Was a nice place, kind of reminded me of Rotterdam in some ways.

Another entertaining and very amusing video, Thank you and keep up the good work.

[@CaptureCruising]

Thank you, I'll try and keep the laughs coming! 😂

OMG you got battenburg!!

[@CaptureCruising]

I don't remember seeing Battenberg on a cruise before but once I found it I had it most days!

[@louised4260]

Thank you for another great vid. Vigo looks fab and must try a Spain and Portugal cruise 😀

[@CaptureCruising]

Thank you, Vigo reminded me a bit of Rotterdam if you've ever been. It's a nice itinerary to get some winter sun!

[@renatobernardin2183]

I have been on Iona.. yes it is a bit unusual where the Gym is located. I used it for about 15 mins each day. Never been to Vigo, the coastline around looked lovely in the sunshine - you captured the sail away very well. Your filming skills are very good.

[@CaptureCruising]

Strange the spa was down there as well but probably a better choice overall. Vigo was very nice, reminded me a bit of Rotterdam if you have ever been. Locals playing music by the terminal was a nice touch. And thanks!

Another great Vlog...but you have caused me an issue......my wife has started buying ship models now....we bought our first one on Azura last week. Now I've got to go on all the ships again 🤣🤣🤣 what a shame eh?

[@CaptureCruising]

Ah... well I would apologise but it seems that you'll be getting a few extra cruises out of it so you're welcome 😂👍

[@70PaulK]

Looks great. I'm going to Vigo on a 7 nighter in a couple of months, so hoping for sunny weather. Think that your trip has a lot of sea days for a 2 week trip, but gives you a chance to use the facilities.

[@CaptureCruising]

Thanks, I'm sure you'll get some decent weather that time of year. It had a fair amount of sea days but I could also do a similar fly-cruise with MSC or RC if that was a major issue. Iona has plenty to do to keep you entertained!

[@robinwbarrett]

Really enjoying your adventures, especially as I am doing this itinerary on December 30th

[@CaptureCruising]

Thank you, I'm sure you'll have a great time getting some winter sun!

[@PeeJay1951]

Didn't really do much exploration of Vigo - lol!

[@CaptureCruising]

"We're here to explore" 5 mins later - stays within spitting distance of the ship 😂 There was a reason I didn't venture too far out but can't remember what it was or mentioned it in the video so 🤷 nice terminal though!

[@richardstreet7518]

That's a slow boat to Spain .. (🎉 if it had been rough in the Bay of Biscay that wiuld have been tough)... anything to do with you not finding the gym on day 1 and peddling a bit faster? Another clear vlog but I prefer the main dining room for breakfast!!

[@CaptureCruising]

Iona is a big girl it takes some time 😂 Iona handled the Bay quite well (either that or it wasn't that bad). I do need to try the MDR at some point as everyone has said that it's better

[@mpb3481]

I just discovered your channel and in my opinion it’s very good. Your videos are well edited and just all around enjoyable. I’m just curious though. All the food I’ve seen so far in all your videos appear to be from the buffet (unless I missed clips from the other venues). Do you never eat in the main dining room or other restaurants on the different ships? I understand not wanting to spend more on specialty restaurants but the MDR and certain restaurants/outlets are included in the fare, e.g. Taste 360, The Quays, the pizzeria. But never mind, I enjoyed this video nevertheless!

[@CaptureCruising]

Thanks for giving my content a go and for your kind comments. For my solo adventures I tend to stick to the buffet / poolside areas and save the MDR for group cruises as I would probably feel uncomfortable with the MDR experience by myself.

[@mpb3481]

@@CaptureCruising That makes sense. Yes, it could be awkward if you’re by yourself. Thanks for replying!

[@bobgrindley9375]

Hi I'm new to your videos with this series. Enjoying your style but just wondering do you not enjoy venturing further from the ship at all?

[@CaptureCruising]

Hi thanks for giving my content a go! It depends on the port itself really. If you stick around for day 9 I travel about an hour and a half walk away from the ship (and get lost coming back!)

[@traceyb3805]

That bloomin stupid bird show. Wasnt for me at all. Such a bizarre show

[@CaptureCruising]

It was certainly a memorable one but I couldn't tell you what story they were trying to tell 😂
