Zeebrugge (for Bruges), Belgium
The modern port of Zeebrugge sits in the centre of Belgium's coast alongside the North Sea. Wander around the marina and visit the Seafront theme park; which is set in the old fish market and focuses on local seafaring and fishing heritage including a Russian submarine. Nearby Knokke-Heist is home to the F for Freedom Museum; where the dioramas evoke the area's WWII history. Travel along the coast to experience the De Fonteintjes wetland and dunes. Zeebrugge is also the gateway to Bruges via the Baudoin Canal - where you can look forward to up-close views of glittering jewels at the Diamond Museum, the world of chocolate making at the Choco-Story, and the art of lace making at the Lace Centre. Belgium's vibrant capital city of Brussels is also easily accessible with its Grand Place, Manneken Pis statue, and Heysel Park's iconic Atomium.
3-4
Rotterdam, Netherlands
The Dutch maritime city of Rotterdam is your next port of call. See the city's oldest harbour, Oude Haven, before taking a look at the 'glass palace' of Van Nelle Fabriek — an UNESCO World Heritage site. Visit the ever-changing exhibitions at the Kunsthal and the expansive collection of Dutch and European art at Museum Boijmans van Beuningen. Ride to the top of Euromast observation tower for 360-degree city-wide views, stop by Miniworld Rotterdam to view the city in miniature, or pop into the Kubuswoningen cube house and museum.

Hamburg, Germany
Germany's largest port and second-biggest city is found on the River Elbe in the north of the country. Hamburg has been an integral part of German trade since the Middle Ages and its strong maritime history can be seen throughout its culture, atmosphere and UNESCO-listed architecture today. Stroll through the legendary Fish Market, take a scenic barge tour, or visit one of many museum ships to learn more about Hamburg's seafaring past. Tower over Hamburg Airport and the Alps at the home of the largest model railway in the world — Miniatur Wunderland — or start at the Jungfernstieg in the city centre to find shops, cafes and multicultural restaurants.

Why Book
Iona
Overview
P&O Cruises Iona is designed to bring the outside in. Through innovative design and unique spaces, she connects you with the sea, sky and shoreline. Iona Cruise Ship’s SkyDome – the first of its kind in the cruise industry – is one such space. With its glass dome roof and spacious layout, the ship is flooded with natural light. Step onto one of our Iona cruises to experience a relaxed, poolside environment by day, with tantalising dining and drinking options; then come evening, the space seamlessly transitions into a must-visit entertainment venue, showcasing spectacular aerialist performances and playing host to party nights under the stars.
Sailing on the Iona offers a fun and welcoming space for families, featuring laid-back dining, exciting entertainment, a swimming pool, and room to roam. Iona’s SkyDome is the place to be for relaxation, effortless dining and brilliant entertainment – day or night, whatever the weather.
Browse our hand-picked cruise deals, and secure your spot on an Iona Cruise holiday in 2025 and beyond. Make sure to explore cruise ship deals across the rest of the P&O Cruise fleet too, including the Aurora, Britannia, and more.

Entertainment
When you’re not looking up at our impressive SkyDome, take a look at everything else the ship has to offer. Why not relax on deck to soothing sounds from our live musicians, catch a singer in the theatre, stumble upon a busker, party the night away at The Club House, or embrace the air guitar with our epic rock night in a SkyDome? Or perhaps for the ultimate nostalgic evening, take in the sunset views to the tune of a live pianist in a panoramic Crow's Nest. The soundtrack to your holiday onboard one of our Iona cruises is unlimited.
In between live music, theatre productions, movie blockbusters, and more, how about a spot of rib-tickling comedy? You’ll find something for everyone on a P&O Cruises Iona holiday. From family-friendly to adult-only content, all ages can enjoy our comedy shows. Guest comedians step on board to take to the stage and make you laugh. While world-class tribute acts dazzle with such impressive vocals, you won’t believe it isn’t the real deal!
