Your Cruise:
Unlock the incredible diversity of tradition, heritage and culture woven around Britain’s shores. Enigmatic stone circles and megalithic tombs detail the earliest chapters. Trace the power of the church through abbeys and cathedrals across the land. Castle strewn landscapes reveal stories so wrapped in fable that the truth is no longer discernible. Nature’s finest endeavours created a tapestry of landscapes inspiration for great artists and writers. Steeped in history and still creating history, Britain, as captured in the spirit of the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.
Optional Footloose Programme: Voyages of Discovery are delighted to introduce on Around Britain and Edinburgh Tattoo their new ‘Footloose’ programme. In each port of call a tour has been specially designed to give small groups of keen hikers and seasoned walkers the opportunity to get off the beaten track, explore untamed landscapes and discover the area’s most magnificent scenery, which is often inaccessible by road.
A knowledgeable and enthusiastic ‘Footloose’ guide will be joining you on board Discovery. They, or an experienced hiker from the ship, will accompany each of the hikes, which is led by a specialist local guide. At the end of the day and back on board your ‘Footloose’ guide is a familiar face with whom you and your fellow walkers can share the day’s exploits – perhaps over a well-earned drink, in the comfort of one of the ship’s lounges.
Voyages of Discovery
The key to a Voyages of Discovery cruise is simplicity itself – see more, do more. So you’ll discover some of the great cities and monuments from the ancient and modern worlds. And along the way, you’ll also share the stories and insights not everyone gets to see. Our renowned guest speakers unlock the secrets, while Discovery is the perfect way to get to any destination.
Small enough to reach out-of-the-way ports, yet large enough to make light work of crossing the great oceans, Discovery avoids the excesses of today’s mega-liners. Instead she has been expressly conceived for our special brand of discovery cruising to create an atmosphere on board that is friendly and relaxed.
During our voyage you will be accompanied by around 650 like-minded passengers. Complementing the talks given by our own lecturers, who will preview the destinations ahead, the programme features historians, explorers, naturalists and diplomats, who will share their expertise, anecdotes and interests with you.
Most recently, Voyages of Discovery is proud to have been awarded Best Niche Cruise Line at the British Travel Awards in 2010 and Best for Lectures at sea by Cruise Critic for 2010.
