Northern Isles

8 Days
Aug 7
and 14 2008 departures
Distant
outposts of northern Europe, lying closer to the Arctic ice caps and
Norway than Scotland’s capital, Orkney and Shetland, or the
Nordereys as they were dubbed by their Viking conquerors. Although
separated from Fair Isle by only 25 miles (40 km), they are unique
from the lush, rolling hills of Orkney, haunted by mythical trows,
to the barer topography of Shetland. Wonder at a wealth of wildlife,
prehistory and tradition on this popular cruise to the Far North on
board Hebridean Princess.
