Day 3
Cobh (tours to Cork), Ireland
Cobh is a quaintly charming seaside town built on a steep hill on the Great Island in Cork’s natural harbour. The town features colourful houses and the impressive spire of Saint Coleman’s Cathedral.
Cobh was the departure point for almost half of the six million Irish people who left the Emerald Isle behind for a new life in North America between 1848 and 1950.
When you cruise to Cobh you berth only 200 yards from the centre of town so it is a great place to step off the ship straight into the warm ambience of Ireland. There are countless sights of historical interest and importance, such as the Fota House, Arboretum and Gardens located nearby.
Days 4 & 5
At Sea
Days 6 & 7
Reykjavik, Iceland
Nestled on the coast of the land of fire and ice, Reykjavik is your gateway to Iceland’s rugged natural wonders. The world’s most northern capital, this city is world-renowned for its unspoiled natural landscapes, Viking history, and vibrant city culture.
Day 8
Isafjordur, Iceland
Few regions are as wild and unspoilt as Iceland’s Westfjords. With miles of mountains and few-and-far-between roads, venturing here evokes the feeling of entering unchartered terrain. The landscape is dramatic and approaching by sea offers the perfect chance to absorb the scenery before setting foot on land. The most enchanting attraction of this area perhaps is the peace, stillness and calm it emanates. Embrace local life in Ísafjörður town or visit the charming nearby village of Flateyri. Further afield you can sail to Vigur, home to Iceland’s last remaining windmill, where time has seemingly stood still and boat is the only connection to the world outside.
Day 9
Akureyri, Iceland
Established in the mid-17th century and affectionately nicknamed ‘The Capital of North Iceland’, Akureyri is an industrious port, and home to the country’s largest and most well-known fishing company.
Day 9
Eyjafjordur, Iceland (Scenic Cruising)
Eyjafjordur is your tranquil route to Akureyri, a pretty city that lies at the end of the fjord. On your way here, you’ll pass a number of smaller towns and villages along the shore.
Almost 50 miles in length, Eyjafjordur offers an unforgettable scenic journey that instils a sense of calm. With mountains towering high on both sides, including the magnificent Mount Kerling at 5,046 feet, you’ll find yourself taking endless photos of the picturesque views.
Day 9
Hrisey, Iceland (Sail By)
At just 8 kilometres squared in size, it could be considered quite remarkable that Hrisey is in fact Iceland’s second largest island, after Heimaey. Home to fewer than 200 residents, Hrisey is most known for its rich birdlife and Viking history.
The island its quite flat, at only 361 feet above sea level at its highest, but its vast green plains make for a pretty vision - especially against the mountainous backdrop of Iceland’s mainland behind.
Days 10 & 11
At Sea
Day 12
Greenock (tours to Glasgow), Scotland, UK
Greenock is your gateway to Glasgow, arguably Scotland’s most animating cultural city. It serves as a brilliant stepping-stone to some of Scotland's most rugged and breathtaking scenery to the north.
As you disembark at Greenock to explore Glasgow, you will likely be greeted by the stirring sights and sounds of a traditional Scottish pipe band in full tartan regalia.
Greenock itself is a pretty town just a short walk from the port. It has a rich heritage of herring fishing and ship building. The prosperity resulting from these lucrative industries is quite evident in the impressive Victorian architecture of the major buildings in town, such as the Sheriff Court, the Municipal Building and the Customs House – now a museum dedicated to the town’s maritime history.
Day 13
Liverpool
Named the European City of Culture in 2008, Liverpool has great significance in the history of Britain. A rich maritime past first put Liverpool on the map, and today the city is known for its diversity and contributions in the world of sport and music, being home to the world-renowned Liverpool Football Club, and of course, The Beatles. Explore everything from fascinating museums to vibrant streets filled with shops, restaurants, street art, and eye-catching architecture.
Day 14
At Sea
Day 15
Southampton, England, UK
Located in the picturesque English county of Hampshire, Southampton is a vibrant waterfront city that seamlessly blends its rich maritime heritage with modern attractions.
