Scotland Shore Excursions
World-class scenery awaits your guests
As a cruise destination, Scotland is undoubtedly up there with the best. Breathtaking scenery, stunning cities, haunting history, UNESCO World Heritage sites, and a variety of ports large and small make Scotland the perfect cruise destination. Scotland’s cruise ports are ideally located for inclusion in Britain and Ireland itineraries, transatlantic re-positioning, or for combining with cruises to Iceland, Faroe Islands or the Norwegian Fjords and Europe.
Rugged and windswept Scotland is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after destinations in the world. Travelers in the know are using their precious vacation days to visit the northernmost country of the United Kingdom and explore the mountains and valleys of Scotland. One of the easiest ways to do so is by sailing on one of our Scotland cruise itineraries.
When you cruise to Scotland with us, you’ll get to explore the wonders of this beautiful country, from its lowland cities like Edinburgh and Glasgow to the majestic highlands that roll from the country roads in incredible peaks of green where you can find some of the most beautiful castles of the country. Keep your eyes peeled for the adorable Highland Cattle, too. Even dining is an adventure in Scotland if you try the haggis, the national dish. Haggis is a savory dish with a pudding consistency that is made from the offal of sheep or calfs and mixed with oats and spices.
The Highlights of a Scotland Cruise
When it comes to visiting Scotland, it’s important to note that the country is divided into two parts: the highlands and the lowlands. The highlands are where you’ll find most of the natural attractions that are popular with visitors, while the lowlands are where the big city attractions are.
