Absolutely love you guys! Me and the family (wife and 2 boys aged 8 and 3) are off on another cruise in 3 weeks (msc seaview). You have great banter, lovely down to earth character and most of all, a lovely charm with each other. Keep it up guys, great things to come! X x x ❤
Great video and glad you found the layout of Britannia as confusing as we did. Definitely the worst designed and least favourite cruise ship we've been on so far. We're off on MSC Euribia later this year, so we've really enjoyed your MSC videos as well as your Christmas Market vlogs - thanks! ❤
Made me jump when Robbie Williams appeared on the Screen, wouldn't mind if he was on the cruise! Absolutely brilliant video again guys, love how happy you both are when food is around lol. Love it
Great vlog once again could not get up early enough to have breakfast in the main restaurant so the buffet had to do Would say, its not the best buffet breakfast we have had, but it didn't stop me from stuffing my face each morning. love my jam on toast but it was always cold and rock hard, might bring my own toaster next time. Lunch times if we were on board i would grab a doggie treat burger also known as a veggie burger wife would have a beef burger very good The food in the evening was very good just the right size portion for us, left enough room for our wine and the late night buffet at midnight I know i have knocked the buffet food but you can always find something to eat its impossible to go hungry and there is always my stash of pringles on bring on board many thanks
Haha take your own toaster next time 🤣 great idea lol. We did do a separate video on the buffet which will eventually be out. And yes the portions are small but at least you can eat as much as you want lol
You can have a bearnaise sauce with the steak that is on in the MDR every evening. If you have the chicken that is on every evening, you can ask them for the bearnaise sauce to go with that. They don't mind, and it tastes really nice.
Good afternoon. I'm so glad I already had lunch before watching this video. 😃. All the food looked really good. I love to try new things when on a ship. If you don't care for it you can always order something else. Thank you.
I was on this cruise! Saw you at the Crow's Nest while I was reading a couple of times and thought about saying hello but thought it better to leave you to enjoy your break ☺️
Didn't you try the Main Dining Rooms. They are included in the price 😁 what we like about the speciality restaurants is they aren't too expensive, cheaper than a nice meal out at home 😁.
We went on Britannia just after you! We really enjoyed the food in the main restaurants. I had a turkey dinner one night which was lovely and the brisket was really well cooked too. We finally got our confidence to ask for extra veg this trip and they were great with that. So great that one night for the two of us 4 bowls of veg came out - thankfully we were hungry and ate it all. We missed the quays compared with Iona like you did but overall we were impressed with our first trip on Britannia
All the food looked delicious Kev and Stacy, but I'm sure some is better than others. It's nice you can do the waiting online. We could be happy there, but don't know if we could eat all three meals a day. Would love to try!
Club Dining, we always ask for at the time of booking. 2nd sitting, table for 8. Hardly ever had a bad table, waiters get to know your likes and dislikes, and each night isn't groundhog day.......conversation moves on.
@@OneCouplesAdventure I only found out a few days into the Cruise when I mentioned it to the Head Waiter, who I have to say was absolutely fantastic making sure I had the Menu's the day before due to my alogies. Xxxx
Just came back from a cruise on Britannia in general I thought the food was pretty good. Although some of the baguettes hardly had any Piccalilly in same with pickle . I had lemon sole one night and it was awful just like a wet soggy sponge . Some of the service we had was a bit slow . Tea at breakfast was sometimes cold ,when I asked for another cup I waited ages . Ratings out of 10 probably a 7 .
Waiting for your next vid in the meantime, what camera do you use ? Sorry, strange question , love your in-depth video's been looking at your previous one's, really selling the msc virtuoso , think that May be the next one after the iona , still looking for good deals.
It seems the booking system has changed since I last went on Britannia (last April). You could book a specific time in all restaurants. This is good to know as we are off again in 3 weeks on the ship with our little one. Did you manage to visit all of the speciality restaurants on board?
Hi yes it's strange as when we did the Iona last year we could pick a time also so not sure why they've changed it 🤔 and yes we did the beach house and the glass house (videos to come on them also) hope you have a lovely time with your little one 😀
Good evening, first of all this is a great video and presentation, my wife and I are booked on this ship next September, is none of the food on this ship free or do you have to pay foe everything?
Hi in the Restaurants we ate early so we seemed to be ok. Later on might of been a different story. The bars at night were very busy though and understaffed .We had to wait a while to be served. Staff were run off their feet and didn't have enough hands. It was also Easter holidays though when we went and a full ship.
Many thanks for the reply, , the Iona and the Arcadia were very much under staffed last year when we sailed . A number of the Bars and restaurants were closed as well . Going on Arvia mid June, can't wait. Really enjoy the videos, keep it up.
Hi guys love ur vids. Quick question about the msc virtuosa if you don't mind. Me n the mrs have got the premium plus package and are going to the fjords in a few weeks. Can i order more than one drink at the bar? Or do we have to both go individually? Cheers 👍👍
Not 100% as we didn't have the drinks package but im sure if you go the bar while the mrs is at the table they will let you order a drink for both of you. We never had to go the bar too fetch our own drink because both times we have been on the Virtuosa the service has been that good they just come to your table.
Absolutely love you guys! Me and the family (wife and 2 boys aged 8 and 3) are off on another cruise in 3 weeks (msc seaview). You have great banter, lovely down to earth character and most of all, a lovely charm with each other. Keep it up guys, great things to come! X x x ❤
Thanks so much John for the lovely comment, we really appreciate it 😊 have a great time on the seaview, will you be trying the ziplining?
We will also be on Iona , starting on Saturday.. Norway here we come!
Have a brilliant time

Hope you had a brilliant time and you could of said Hi we wouldn't of minded lol 😁
Great video as usual guys! Keep them coming!
Thanks Dave
love the channel /amazing couple thank you .
Thanks so much
Very good point for new cruisers about asking for extras, no need to stand on ceremony 😂. If anyone goes hungry on a cruise ship it’s their own fault.
Haha 100 % Stuart, we had no idea on our first cruise lol. We certainly know now you can order as much as you want 🤣
Love you guys. Watched all your Iona vlogs as we are booked for June to Norway. Hope to book Britania soon. Happy travels to you both.
Thanks so much Margaret
Thank you for your very informative video.
We are booked on the Britannia in a few weeks time
Thanks so much Gordon, have a lovely time when you go and all the best for 2024
Thanks Guys, When I did my first cruise, I only ate in the Buffet (Didn't want to pay extra) This one going to explore a bit more !
Didn't you try the Main Dining Rooms. They are included in the price 😁 what we like about the speciality restaurants is they aren't too expensive, cheaper than a nice meal out at home 😁.
Hi guys, I've just booked my first cruise. 30 aug 2025 on Iona. Can't wait.
Brilliant Liz how exciting, you can enjoy the planning phase now 😀
Good effort!! Very clear and helpful..
Ooh shouldn't watch this whilst deciding what to have for tea. Looking forward Iona next week for some scurry food yummy. 😊
Haha 🤣 not long till the Iona now 😁

Great videos, our favourites up there with Ben and David's
Thanks so much really appreciate it
Great vlog as normal xx
Thank you 😊
All the food looked delicious Kev and Stacy, but I'm sure some is better than others. It's nice you can do the waiting online. We could be happy there, but don't know if we could eat all three meals a day. Would love to try!
Haha what can I say we like our food lol
Thank you for mentioning the fact that it's on the bone Kev. It might be helpful for some disabled passengers.
Thanks Liz just pointing it out in case people aren't fans of it on the bone
Yay I love food reviews 😊
Loved this video! Really helpful 😊
Very useful thank you
Club Dining, we always ask for at the time of booking. 2nd sitting, table for 8. Hardly ever had a bad table, waiters get to know your likes and dislikes, and each night isn't groundhog day.......conversation moves on.
Stacey is so cute and sweet❤
Thank you 😊
They also do Omelettes but not on Menu, just ask like we did on Iona 😊
That's good to know thanks 😊 wonder why they don't put them on the menu though so that people are aware 🤔
@@OneCouplesAdventure I only found out a few days into the Cruise when I mentioned it to the Head Waiter, who I have to say was absolutely fantastic making sure I had the Menu's the day before due to my alogies. Xxxx
Doing our first cruise on arvia September looking forward to it 😅😅
Looks a lovely ship, its on our list lol

Thanks. We use a sony zv-1 as our main camera
Oh yum!!! We’re on the two week countdown to going on Britannia now 🚢🚢
Not long now, have a great time
Selamat malam
It seems the booking system has changed since I last went on Britannia (last April). You could book a specific time in all restaurants. This is good to know as we are off again in 3 weeks on the ship with our little one.
Did you manage to visit all of the speciality restaurants on board?

Good evening, first of all this is a great video and presentation, my wife and I are booked on this ship next September, is none of the food on this ship free or do you have to pay foe everything?
Hi Nick, all of the food in this video is included. There are some speciality restaurants onboard you can pay extra for but they are optional 👍
Hi Both we are regular p&o cruisers , was just wondering if they have sorted out there shortage of staff issues from last year ?
Hi in the Restaurants we ate early so we seemed to be ok. Later on might of been a different story. The bars at night were very busy though and understaffed .We had to wait a while to be served. Staff were run off their feet and didn't have enough hands. It was also Easter holidays though when we went and a full ship.

Hi guys love ur vids. Quick question about the msc virtuosa if you don't mind. Me n the mrs have got the premium plus package and are going to the fjords in a few weeks. Can i order more than one drink at the bar? Or do we have to both go individually? Cheers 👍👍

@@OneCouplesAdventure sounds good thanks 👍👍
We are family of 4 and planning a cruise holiday in June, would you recommend Iona or Britannia please? Thank you
Hi they are both nice. Hard to choose really. It would also depend on the itinerary as well
The food looked tasty, but is it a proper breakfast without beans?
Haha definitely needs beans 😁
On P&O ships in general, can you ask for tap water with lunch and dinner or do you have to pay for bottled water? Thanks 😊
You can ask for tap water
Hi yes they will offer tap water free of charge
Not self service?
This is just the main dining room we did the Buffet in a separate video
