An exclusive, new cruise tour package released by Australian small ship cruise specialist, Cruise Traveller, features a complete circumnavigation of Great Britain and an icon-filled land tour right through its heart as well as extensive savings and free hotel stays for bookings made with Cruise Traveller by 31 August, 2025.
Cruise Traveller’s new 23-night ‘Great British Isles and Scotland’ package begins in England on 25 May, 2026, with a free night in a London hotel followed by an 11-night voyage from Southampton that circles Great Britian aboard the sleek and stylish Oceania Cruises ship, Oceania Insignia™, which carries 670 guests and boasts The Finest Cuisine at Sea® and a refined yet relaxed experience.
The itinerary takes in Newcastle, UK and Edinburgh in Scotland, the remote Shetland Islands in the far north, the beautiful islands of Scotland’s Outer Hebrides, Belfast in Northern Island, and Dublin and Cork in Ireland before returning to London, completing the circle of the British Isles.
Guests will then spend another free night at a hotel in London before joining a 10-night, small group coach tour (max 18 guests) returning north, to Edinburgh, but inland this time, featuring the postcard-pretty hamlets of the Cotswolds, the Tudor town of Stratford-Upon-Avon, where Shakespeare was born, and the rugged and ancient landscapes of Wales. The tour also takes in the spectacular scenery of Snowdonia National Park, the Beatles home of Liverpool, magnificent Castle Howard where the famous 1980s TV show ‘Brideshead Revisited’ was filmed near York, the sweeping Lake District, Beatrix Potter’s quaint holiday home on the English moors and a traditional haggis dinner and bagpipe demonstration over the border in Scotland, with the experience ending in Edinburgh.
“What better way to discover the storied treasures of the British Isles than to journey right around them on a boutique ship and then to travel inland right through the heart of Britain?” said Cruise Traveller Managing Director, Joe O’Sullivan. “This very special package from Cruise Traveller offers all of Great Britian in one, value-filled holiday package.”
