WHY GO?

Anyone who has watched the film Titanic is likely to share a fascination with the sophisticated lifestyle that the first-class passengers enjoyed on the Ship of Dreams. The sumptuous setting is recreated onboard Iona, where attention to detail is key and guests enjoy a pristine and pampered existence.

We set sail on a seven-night cruise to Norway, stopping off in the cities of Stavanger and Haugesund, the port town of Alesund and the village of Olden. Each destination showcases Norway’s striking landscape, but what makes this cruise so special is the ease with which passengers are transported into the heart of this welcoming, wholesome country.

Leaving the ship for a day’s sightseeing is a slick, hassle-free experience and then we are free to have a leisurely stroll around these beautiful locations.

LIFE ON BOARD:

There is such a packed and varied programme of events on Iona that it’s impossible to sample everything in seven days – but we had a good crack at it. The ship’s daily newspaper, Horizon, contains details of each day’s activities, so you can plan your schedule over breakfast.

For those of us missing out on Parkrun, there is a jogging track at the top of the ship. It takes 22 laps to do a 5k run, but it’s an invigorating experience to run while sailing on a ship in the North Sea.
