United Kingdom: Kirkwall (Orkney Islands)
The flat, windswept Orkney Islands, just off the northeast coast of Scotland, have a distinctive Scandinavian heritage that’s discernible in everything from the unusual place names to the ancient Norse architecture of the capital, Kirkwall. Don’t miss the Ring of Brodgar, a fascinating Neolithic stone circle.

Arriving in Scrabster
Your home from home
This former Aegean ferry has undergone a remarkable transformation, rebuilt to transit the intricate waters of the Caledonian Canal, with the elegant appeal of a vintage Pullman carriage.
What we love
Lord of the Highlands is a recent addition to the Hebridean Island Cruises fleet, infused with the same relaxed house party atmosphere as the Hebridean Princess, and is perfectly in keeping with the line's unmistakably Scottish heritage.
