With its diverse coastline and the close proximity of its ports, the United Kingdom and Ireland is ideal for cruising. You’ll find you never spend long at sea before your next chance to put your feet on solid ground again and, of course, you’ll never have to travel far to the start of your cruise. Take a cruise of the British Isles and get another perspective of our great islands.
ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE
One of the greatest cities on earth, London’s incredible architecture, rich culture and eternal energy means that millions of people are drawn to it every year.
GET ARTY
The European Capital of Culture 2008, Liverpool vaunts its varied history and enlivening culture. Discover where the Beatles began, visit great museums and find out why the city is now a World Heritage Site.
AMAZING HISTORY
Stop on England’s south coast and head to the remarkable ruins of Stonehenge. Rising from the ground like giant fingers, their exact significance is still unclear – their drama is not.
HAVE FUN
Spend time in the bars of Cork and get to know the locals with a song or two, or three, or four...
GET ACTIVE
Take a walk through the beautiful wilderness of the Isle of Skye and fall in love with the simplicity of nature.
DELICIOUS CUISINE
Eat freshly-caught oysters in Dublin, all washed down with pint of Ireland’s unofficial national dish: Guinness.
AMAZING BEACH
The Orkney Isles in the far north of Scotland has some of the country’s greatest – and whitest – beaches. Isolated and lapped by clear seas, you may be surprised just how beautiful they are.
TIME OUT
With lots of departures from Dover and Southampton, you not only have time to relax on your cruise, you can also take it easy before you go and after you get back as you’ll have no international flights to take.
SHOPPING DELIGHTS
Walk down Oxford Street in London and shop in the huge stores, or head off the main street and find designer boutiques.
TAKE THE PHOTO
You only need to walk through Edinburgh’s cobbled streets to realise why so many visitors fall in love with it. A photo of the mighty castle that towers above the city’s grand and historic houses is a must.
