Cruise overview
You may never uncover a rainbow’s end, but the rich experiences awaiting you on this 8-day Ireland and Northern Ireland cruise circumnavigating the countries that transcend any fabled pot of gold. Stroll past 400-year-old stone walls and gleaming brass fixtures before pausing to inhale fragrant whiskey aromas at the world’s oldest licensed whiskey distillery outside Londonderry, Ireland. Experience the breathtaking Cliffs of Moher from the top deck of your yacht, as you cruise between Galway and Dingle. Take in the seabirds amid sweeping coastal views 2,000 feet above the waves at the crest of Slieve League Cliffs, one of Europe’s highest coastal precipices and a mere giant’s boulder toss from the white-walled village of Killybegs. Visit Killary Fjord, widely known as the only fjord in Ireland. Tap your toes to Irish flutes and sip tea near stone monuments that make up the Dingle Peninsula’s rich archaeological heritage. Kiss the Blarney Stone atop the storied battlements of Blarney Castle. Then, sample Irish coffee with Cork locals at an authentic pub.
Itinerary
London Tower Bridge
London is an ancient city whose history greets you at every turn. If the city contained only its famous landmarks—the Tower of London or Big Ben—it would still rank as one of the world’s top cities. But London is so much more. The foundations of London’s character and tradition endure. The British bobby is alive and well. The tall, red, double-decker buses (in an updated model) still lumber from stop to stop. Then there’s that greatest living link with the past—the Royal Family with all its attendant pageantry. To ice the cake, swinging-again London is today one of the coolest cities on the planet. The city’s art, style, and fashion make headlines around the world, and London’s chefs have become superstars.
