P&O Iona Norwegian Fjords cruise - Sea day Spa & Chef’s table - Episode 2

Join us in our second episode as we spend the day at sea onboard the beautiful P&O Iona as we set sail for a 7 night Norwegian Fjords cruise and have our first ever P&O Chef's Table experience!

On the Norway Cruise we will call at Stavanger, Olden, Hellesylt for Geirangerfjord and Haugesund.

In this episode, we have a leisurely day at sea and after sleeping in, head to Main Dining Room for lunch (Coral restaurant).

After a delicious lunch we spend some time in the Oasis Spa thermal suite. In here you will find heated loungers, a therapeutic sauna, steam rooms and experiential showers. It also features a hydrotherapy pool with messaging jets!

In the evening, we have our meal at the Chefs Table, this is only on P&O Iona and P&O Arvia, but we have never tried it, so we though we would give it a go! P&O describe the Chefs Table as "there’s a new way to enjoy all the black-tie gourmet glamour: at The Chef’s Table. In a dedicated area of the Horizon restaurant (suitably styled for the occasion), you’ll be served an exclusive menu; a culinary creation from our illustrious Food Hero. By choosing The Chef’s Table, you can feast on creations by Marco Pierre White, alongside Olly Smith's expert wine recommendations." - so was The chefs table a hit or miss? Watch to find out!

We hope you enjoy this episode, stay tuned as in the next one we arrive at Stavanger, the first port on our P&O Iona Norwegian Fjords cruise.

🐒🍌🚢 About Us - Who are the Cruise Monkeys?
We are bananas about cruising! We started cruising in 2014 by doing a mini cruise on P&O Aurora. Making videos of our cruises and sharing our experiences has become our hobby – the complete video is filmed and edited on an iPhone. The videos are our opinions and experiences while on board - really they are us having fun and brining you along with us!

We may not be the youngest cruisers but we are trying to break the stereotype that cruising is for retired people. On a cruise you will normally find us wondering around the ship taking in the atmosphere (and working our way through the cocktails).


We have sailed on P&O Cruises, Cunard Line, Princess Cruises, MSC Cruises, Royal Caribbean and Avalon Waterways. We'd love to try Ambassador Cruise Line, Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), Fred Olsen, Holland America (HAL), Celebrity, Disney Cruises, Carnival Cruises, Costa, Aida, Marella and Celestyal.
