Stornoway, Scotland
  • Stornoway, Scotland
Welcome to Stornoway, gateway to Scotland's wild Outer Hebrides. Once a Viking settlement, today the town has a beautiful waterfront with museums, galleries, cafes, and shops. Head for Lewis Castle, and venture further to visit folk museums, ancient sites, and workshops where Scotland's most unique and precious fabric - Harris Tweed - is woven. You may also choose to take a walk around the Hebrides' least hilly island, spotting red deer, eagles, otters, gannets, and butterflies as you go. ...

Tobermory, United Kingdom

Today, we arrive at the picturesque fishing port of Tobermory, located on the Isle of Mull. Your guide will bring the port to life, retelling stories of its past and present as you take in the brightly colored Georgian houses that line the waterfront. As you stroll the harbor, take the opportunity to try a dram of whisky, or venture along the wooded coastal path for views across the Ardnamurchan Peninsula, the most westerly point on the British mainland. You may spot white-tailed eagles soaring above you as you take a walk with the Expedition Team along the coast. You'll also have the chance to visit one of the historic castles that guarded the region when the Lord of the Isles ruled here in the 12th century. ...

  • Belfast, United Kingdom
Welcome to Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland. Once a powerhouse of shipbuilding and industry, the city is perhaps best known as the birthplace of the famous ocean liner, the Titanic. Today, the Titanic Museum is one of the city's top attractions - but do take some time to stroll around the revitalized waterfront, markets, and neighborhoods, appreciating the Victorian architecture and lively pub scene. Beyond the city, dramatic coastlines, green hills, and historic sites - including the Giant's Causeway - offer a glimpse into the landscapes that have shaped Ireland's story for centuries. ...

Elsewhere, we'll visit the Manx Museum - which details the island's 10,000 years of history - gaze up at the murals of St Thomas' Church and learn how Douglas evolved into a Victorian tourist resort. ...

Fishguard, United Kingdom

Located part way between the Preseli Hills and the Pembrokeshire coast in Wales is the charming coastal town of Fishguard. Today, you can take a stroll around the original hamlet and pretty boat-filled harbor in Lower Fishguard before taking in the spectacular sea views from the 'Main Town' on the clifftop. From there, you may choose to walk further, skimming the coastline along the Pencaer Peninsula, known as Strumble Head, in search of wildlife. The ruins of Fishguard Fort at Castle Point are also a must-visit, as is St David's Cathedral, Britain's most ancient cathedral settlement that dates back 14 centuries. ...

Isles of Scilly, United Kingdom
  • Isles of Scilly, United Kingdom
Just 30 miles off the tip of Cornwall, England, are the enchanting Isles of Scilly. This photogenic archipelago is home to small islands where pristine beaches are lapped by dazzling blue waters. We'll anchor the ship and head ashore by local boats, giving us the chance to explore more fully. If conditions allow, we'll split our time here. Perhaps we'll visit Tresco's white-sand beaches and the sub-tropical blooms of its 19th-century Abbey Gardens, head to tranquil St Agnes on the wild Atlantic edge, or wander the charming streets of Hugh Town on St Mary's. ...

Lisbon marks the end of your expedition. Be sure to leave time to explore Lisbon itself - the buzzy Portuguese capital is rich in history and culture. Take a stroll along its hilly cobbled streets, hop on a canary-yellow tram to take in a panoramic viewpoint, and tuck into flaky pastel de nata (custard tarts) freshly made at the city's decades-old bakeries. Embrace the opportunity to explore the districts of Baixa, Bairro Alto, and Chiado, where fado music floats out of the open doors of bars and cafes, and pause for a drink at one of the city's many lively squares.
