British Isles Expeditions

Shore Excursions and Photogenic Moments

Sail the British and Irish isles and uncover fascinating layers of history in one of the globe’s most storied corners. Voyage through the heart of Scotland and its outer islands aboard the charming Lord of the Glens, or trace the maritime threads of England, Ireland and Scotland aboard National Geographic Explorer and National Geographic Endurance. Seek out seals and nesting seabirds in wild and windswept lands from St. Kilda to Cobh, exploring by Zodiac or on foot, and encounter vestiges of ancient times—from Stone Age megaliths to medieval monasteries and fanciful Edwardian castles. Your veteran team—including naturalists, experts, and historians—offers insights into the region’s past to help illuminate its present.
