Gaelic Ramparts – Edinburgh, Skye & Dublin

About this cruise

You won't run out of things to do on a trip this long, but you also won't feel like you have to do any of them. 14 nights from Dover on May 28, 2027, visiting Rotterdam, Leith (Edinburgh) and Invergordon, with additional stops along the British Isles & Western France. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. 3 countries (Netherlands, United Kingdom and Ireland) across the British Isles & Western France, each with its own character. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, You won't go hungry on Nieuw Statendam. 6 restaurants come with the fare, plus 6 more when you feel like treating yourself. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
