Get away to Italy, France and the Hebrides

-

From deserted beaches to dramatic lochs and lofty mountains, the wild beauty of the Inner and Outer Hebrides makes for an unforgetta­ble experience. On this spectacula­r 11-day cruise of the Scottish islands, you will get to take in the fantastic scenery as you hop from isle to isle. You will stroll along the rugged coastlines and see various birds and wildlife, as well as get a taste of what it’s like to live on the Atlantic Ocean archipelag­o while on visits to whisky distilleri­es and tweed-weavers. Beginning your journey in Glasgow, you will board the comfortabl­e, modern and environmen­tally progressiv­e MS Spitsberge­n, which will take you to the Isle of Mull. Here, you will visit its capital, Tobermory, where brightly painted houses ring the bay. You will also see Arran, a haven for wildlife; the ‘Whisky Island’ (Islay); Iona, with its ancient religious connection­s; and Eigg, with its Iron Age forts. On Hirta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, you will have the chance to see minke whales swimming nearby.
