Crystal Symphony
21 Aug '27Cruise overview
Leaving the elemental landscapes of Iceland in our wake, we chart a course across the Atlantic for Great Britain, pausing en route at Torshavn on the Faroe Islands, where the lofty, rugged cliffs promise scenic drives and invigorating walks. Scotland hoves into view at Kirkwall in the Orkney Islands, where you can marvel at its Neolithic sites and Viking heritage. Next comes Newhaven, with easy access to the rich cultural heritage and high-class shopping of the vibrant capital, Edinburgh, before a relaxing day at sea takes us to the picturesque French coastal towns of Le Havre and Saint-Malo. We return to Britain at the pretty Cornish fishing port of Fowey and then hop across the Celtic Sea to Dunmore East, Ireland, for a visit to Waterford, famous for its crystal-glass production. Next comes North Wales, with a stop in Holyhead, from where you can visit the Isle of Anglesey, and Douglas on the Isle of Man, before we arrive in Liverpool on the northwest coast of England, hometown of The Beatles and once one of the world’s great trading ports. A day at sea takes us back to the French coast to Brest, with its rich maritime history, and Montoir-de-Bretagne, gateway to Nantes, the former home of the Dukes of Brittany. We then spend three memorable days in Bordeaux, sipping world-class wines cultivated in big-name vineyards around the city, including in the charming village of Saint-Émilion. Spain comes next as we call at Bilbao, famous for its architecturally striking Guggenheim Museum. Another sea day brings us to beautiful Porto, to raise a glass to the city’s eponymous wine on an excursion along the River Douro, before we arrive in the Portuguese capital, Lisbon.
Itinerary
Reykjavík
Sprawling Reykjavík, the nation’s nerve center and government seat, is home to half the island’s population. On a bay overlooked by proud Mt. Esja (pronounced eh-shyuh), with its ever-changing hues, Reykjavík presents a colorful sight, its concrete houses painted in light colors and topped by vibrant red, blue, and green roofs. In contrast to the almost treeless countryside, Reykjavík has many tall, native birches, rowans, and willows, as well as imported aspen, pines, and spruces.Reykjavík’s name comes from the Icelandic words for smoke, reykur, and bay, vík. In AD 874, Norseman Ingólfur Arnarson saw Iceland rising out of the misty sea and came ashore at a bay eerily shrouded with plumes of steam from nearby hot springs. Today most of the houses in Reykjavík are heated by near-boiling water from the hot springs. Natural heating avoids air pollution; there’s no smoke around. You may notice, however, that the hot water brings a slight sulfur smell to the bathroom.Prices are easily on a par with other major European cities. A practical option is to purchase a Reykjavík City Card at the Tourist Information Center or at the Reykjavík Youth Hostel. This card permits unlimited bus usage and admission to any of the city’s seven pools, the Family Park and Zoo, and city museums. The cards are valid for one (ISK 3,300), two (ISK 4,400), or three days (ISK 4,900), and they pay for themselves after three or four uses a day. Even lacking the City Card, paying admission (ISK 500, or ISK 250 for seniors and people with disabilities) to one of the city art museums (Hafnarhús, Kjarvalsstaðir, or Ásmundarsafn) gets you free same-day admission to the other two.
