British Isles & Atlantic Luxury Cruises

Legendary isles and Atlantic shores, voyage through living history, electric culture, and glorious gastronomy

Seabird-strewn cliffs, storied castles, and coastlines rich in flavor, folklore and fortifications. From Liverpool’s effortless cool to Edinburgh’s regal grandeur, the British Isles are bursting with extraordinary tales and tradition. Across the Channel, Europe’s Atlantic coastline entices with Normandy’s buttery cuisine, Brittany’s dramatic landscapes, and the prized vineyards of Bordeaux.

DESTINATION HIGHLIGHTS

Edinburgh

Catch the light casting a golden glow over Edinburgh’s ancient skyline, and it’s love at first sight. A city of fairytale beauty that lives and breathes culture, few places balance history and hedonism so well. The ever-present castle is never far from view, perched above the rounded cobbles and irresistibly-photogenic slanted alleyways of the old town and Royal Mile. Savor it with a heritage-rich glass of Scotch.

St. Peter Port, Guernsey

Sugary white sands and turquoise waters may not be your first vision of this part of the world, but Guernsey - one of the charming Channel Islands - is an alluring outlier. Just offshore from France, wander a tight-knit and compact town, before tucking into cream teas in charming cafes that are nestled among the cobbled streets, or dining on St Peter Port’s burgeoning offering of haute cuisine and fresh seafood.

Liverpool

Liverpool has long been an outward-facing city of culture and confidence. Set on the banks of the River Mersey, influence and invention have been exported far and wide. Explore grand waterfront architecture and extraordinary marine heritage and museums. The Fab Four jetted off from humble roots here to conquer the world, leaving a trail of landmarks. Proud, soccer-mad locals ensure that nobody here walks alone.

Bordeaux

Uncork sheer perfection in the wine capital of the world. Elegant turreted châteaux soar over neat rows of vineyards, where winemaking traditions trace back through generations. Bordeaux is a gastronomic heart of France, a city of stunning architecture, and a fascinating bastion of history. Explore the fertile lands of the Gironde and indulge in tours through vineyards and legendary wine towns like Saint-Émilion.

Honfleur

An impressionist painting brought to life, the delightful harborfront of Vieux Bassin is pure inspiration. A muse to Monet and many others, this City of Artists is stacked with dreamy Normandy architecture. Nearby, the timber-framed Saint Catherine’s is France’s biggest wooden church. Sample the region’s culinary traditions at the market - think pungent cheeses, crisp cider, and lashings of butter and garlic.

Saint Malo

Fortified Saint-Malo looms large out of legend. Encircled by the mighty 12th-century ramparts, this “corsair city” is a place of swashbuckling history and moody beauty. Thick, granite walls encase narrow lanes that are adorned with street art, where stories of poets and pirates linger. Beyond the fortifications, golden beaches stretch toward the horizon, as dramatic tides swell and recede along the Emerald Coast.
