Cruise Itinerary

26th May 2013 Edinburgh, Leith Depart 01:30
27th May 2013 At Sea
28th May 2013 Torshavn, Faroe Islands Arrive 09:00 - Depart 17:00

Capital city of the Faroe Islands, “The harbour of the god Thor”, is a modern town that retains a unique character; although the islands - a green home to birds, sheep and about 46,000 people - would still be recognisable to the early Viking settlers who arrived on their transatlantic trail from Scandinavia to North America.

29th May 2013 Stornoway, Isle of Lewis Arrive 09:00 - Depart 18:30

Having cruised around the northern tip of the British Isles, you reach Stornoway, the only town on Lewis, the most northerly of the Outer Hebrides. This history-rich outpost offers a tremendous diversity of interests including the pre-historic Callanish Standing Stones, fabulous coastlines, beaches and wildlife.

30th May 2013 Kirkwall, Orkaney Islands Arrive 07:00 - Depart 16:00

The capital and administrative centre of the Orkney Islands, set on the principal island known as Mainland. The Orkneys comprise 70 or so islands, rocks and skerries that cover an area of 376 square miles. You can still detect the Norse influence and the Stone Age settlement at Skara Brae, older than either the Pyramids or Stonehenge, is fascinating.
