Cruise Begins

Greenock, United Kingdom

Start in Scotland's stylish city of culture. A former industrial powerhouse, Glasgow has reinvented itself as a cultural hot spot that is packed with museums, galleries, and parks. Discover the splendid Art Nouveau architecture of Charles Rennie Mackintosh before your expedition cruise begins. If you also want to experience some of Scotland's unique history and nature, you could arrive a little earlier and join one of the optional Pre-Programs. You'll embark MS Spitsbergen, one of Hurtigruten's smaller vessels that is purpose-built for close-up exploration, at Glasgow (Greenock). Get to know the ship before meeting the Expedition Team-your guides for the adventure ahead. Enjoy your first onboard dinner as we set sail. ...

Isle of Arran, Scotland, United Kingdom, United Kingdom

Isle of Arran, Scotland, United Kingdom, United Kingdom

Enjoy wildlife spotting on Arran. Welcome to the Isle of Arran with its heather-cloaked landscapes. Known as "Scotland in miniature", Arran's varied landscape is split by the Highland Boundary Fault, which gives the island its distinctive highland peaks in the north and lush lowlands in the south. Go on a hike with views of the craggy peaks of Goat Fell and see if you can spot Scotland's "Big Five:" the golden eagle, red deer, red squirrel, otter, and harbor seal, all of which can be found on Arran. While here, discover the Scottish grandeur of Brodick Castle, and explore the gardens, which will be brimming with spring life. You can also marvel at the Neolithic treasures and huge upright slabs at the Machrie Moor Stone Circle. ...

Islay, Scotland

Fire up your spirit of discovery on "Whiskey Island". Islay, the "Queen of the Hebrides" and the southernmost island of the Inner Hebrides, has rugged uplands and coastline. The island is the proud home of world-famous peaty single malts-but that's far from the only reason to visit. A haven for wildlife, Islay is home to over 200 species of birds, including oystercatchers, gannets, and golden eagles. From its sandy beaches, you can sometimes spot dolphins and basking sharks. You can join a local guide on a heritage walk, and of course, no trip to Islay is complete without a "wee dram" from one of the island's famous and historic whiskey producers, including Laphroaig and Ardbeg. ...

Gigha, United Kingdom

Discover a slice of paradise in the Hebrides. Our Scottish isles cruise continues to tiny Gigha (pronounced "Gee-a"), which is a little sandy slice of paradise in the Hebrides. Bought by its 163 residents in 2002, the island is community-owned and has a sustainable local economy. Try some of the seafood, such as Gigha halibut and oysters. Gigha is only seven miles long, and the only way to get around is on foot or by renting a bike. Visit the woodland gardens of Achamore House and admire the colorful rhododendrons. Then explore white sandy coves and turquoise waters along the coast, for example at Bagh Rubha Ruaidh and Bagh na Doirlinne beaches. ...

Tobermory, United Kingdom

Get ready for the dreamy beauty of the Sound of Mull. Brightly colored Georgian houses line the waterfront in the picturesque fishing port of Tobermory on the Isle of Mull. As we explore, your local guide will bring the port to life with stories of its vibrant past and present. Learn about local heritage at the Mull Museum, try a dram of local whisky, stroll around the loch in Aros Park, or soak up the views across the Ardnamurchan Peninsula on a walk along the wooded coastal path. The Isle of Mull is birder heaven. It has the highest breeding density of golden eagles in Europe, and white-tailed eagles can often be seen soaring above the coast. While here, you can also visit one of the historic castles that guarded these waterways when the Lord of the Isles ruled the region in the 12th century. ...

Outer Hebrides, Scotland, United Kingdom

Explore the tranquil islands of the Outer Hebrides. Today we plan to explore the Outer Hebrides and attempt a landing at one of the many tiny islands. Your captain and expedition leader will choose the best landing site, depending on the conditions of the day. The mighty wind and waves of the Atlantic have carved sheltered harbors here, allowing settlements to arise as far back as the Neolithic period. Perhaps we'll visit a remote community and gain insight into their way of life, or we may head to a pristine white-sand beach for a nature landing or hike. We may also take our small boats for some coastal cruising in search of wildlife, such as puffins, guillemots, kittiwakes, and seals. ...

Stornoway, Scotland

Shiant Islands, United Kingdom

Experience "Scotland's Stonehenge" and find your tweed. Next we'll travel to Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis and Harris in the Outer Hebrides-home of the famous Harris Tweed cloth. We'll visit Gothic-style Lews Castle with its trails and fantastic views. Don't miss "Scotland's Stonehenge", the 5,000-year-old Callanish Standing Stones, and Dun Carloway, the best-preserved Iron Age broch in Scotland. We'll also cruise the wild and beautiful Shiant Isles, a tiny archipelago set in the Minch Strait. It's one of the most important breeding colonies for seabirds in Europe, so keep an eye out for European shags, common eiders, northern fulmars, and great skuas in the surrounding waters or on volcanic ledges. ...

Loch Scavaig, Scotland, United Kingdom, United Kingdom

Loch Scavaig, Scotland, United Kingdom, United Kingdom

Isle of Eigg

Get close to dramatic scenery and wonderful wildlife on Skye and Eigg. We'll sail to Loch Scavaig on the Isle of Skye, where dramatic scenery surrounds us. "The wildest scene in the Highlands"-that's how Victorian poet Lord Tennyson described Loch Coruisk and the surrounding craggy peaks of the Cuillin Mountains. We'll put on our hiking boots to explore the loch with the Expedition Team. Our next stop is the remote Isle of Eigg, home to incredible wildlife. You might spot golden and white-tailed eagles, red-throated divers, stonechats, seals, dolphins, and porpoises. Stroll along the white sands of Laig Bay to the quartz beach, where the sand sings, or hike to the top of An Sgurr. ...

Iona, United Kingdom

Staffa, Scotland

See Iona's sacred abbey and Fingal's Cave on Staffa. Your adventure continues to Iona, which is off the coast of Mull in the Inner Hebrides. Visit the restored sixth-century abbey; it's one of Scotland's oldest and most sacred Christian pilgrimage sites. Or enjoy a hike with the Expedition Team up Dun I for breathtaking views of St. Columba's Bay-and take a sip from the "Well of Eternal Youth". If conditions allow, we'll also sail to Staffa. We'll attempt to take our small boats for a closer look at Fingal's Cave, marveling at the hexagonal basalt columns, superb natural acoustics, and mesmerizing, colored waters. ...

If you're lucky enough to set off in a kayak, you may even catch sight of whales, porpoises, and dolphins. Flora thrives on Colonsay, which features over 400 species of plants. You'll see some of them in the woodland gardens of Colonsay House. It's a birdwatcher's paradise; you can spot choughs, red northern divers, eagles, fulmars, guillemots, razorbills, kittiwakes, shags, and more. Later in the spring, be sure to listen for the rattle of the elusive corncrake. ...

Glasgow, United Kingdom

Your island-hopping odyssey comes to an end in Scotland's biggest city. Your adventure to the wild Scottish Isles ends back in Glasgow (Greenock). Lying on the shores of the Firth of Clyde with views across to the high hills of Argyll, Glasgow's impressive fishing and shipping heritage is manifest in the Victorian architecture of the west end of town. It's well worth exploring this area some more if you have time before you head home. ...
