Taste the luxury of this delightful little ship, immaculate service and gourmet cuisine in the untouched, surreal beauty of the Scottish Highlands and Islands on a four-night cruise with a difference. Wonder at breathtaking landscapes as you sample the delights of a Hebridean Princess experience.
Steaming from Oban, we head for the Small Isle of Eigg, dominated by An Sgúrr, the largest pitchstone ridge of its kind in Europe, and enjoy strolls on this lush wildlife haven. On Skye, walks in the awe-inspiring reaches of Loch Scavaig and Loch Coruisk are an almost ethereal experience set against the backdrop of the soaring Black Cuillin.
Experience the magic of history at Dunvegan, a fortressed castle powerfully dominating northern Skye for centuries, the ancestral seat of the MacLeods is set in attractive gardens overlooking Loch Dunvegan. It is the only castle in Scotland to be continuously occupied by the same family for over 800 years.
Over the Sea of the Hebrides, to South Uist, where the Kildonan Museum holds over 10,000 items charting the cultural history and heritage of an island that is incredibly rich in archeological remains dating from the bronze age to the Viking era.
Heading eastwards, compare the gentler feel of the nature haven of Canna, worthy of its reputation as the ‘Garden of the Hebrides.’ A peaceful afternoon of exploration on the island precedes a scenic cruise of the Sound of Mull and our Farewell Gala dinner, complete with Robert Burns’ Address to a Haggis.
