Celtic Lands

Celebrate Celtic culture during a nine-night cruise to France, England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Aboard Exploris One, your exclusively chartered, deluxe small ship, sail from Honfleur, France, to Fairlie, Scotland. Along the way, visit cultural landmarks and delve into the history of this storied region. Visit Normandy’s D-Day battlefields and discuss one of the 20th-century’s most consequential military campaigns with guest speaker Dwight David Eisenhower II, historian and grandson of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Explore Caernarfon Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site, in Wales, and Scotland’s Eilean Donan Castle. Delight in the contrast of landscapes: the rugged, windswept islands of Iona and Skye and the botanical panoramas of Victorian-era Bodnant Garden in Wales and Tresco Abbey Gardens in the Isles of Scilly. See the legendary Book of Kells at Trinity College during a city tour of Dublin. In Scotland’s Inner Hebrides, get to know the colorful island towns of Tobermory and Portree. Soul-stirring performances of Welsh airs and traditional Irish music and dancing complete your experience.
