Subarctic Stepping Stones – Reykjavik & Qaqortoq

About this cruise

Block out 18 nights from August 4, 2028 and let this sailing from Southampton do its thing. The route covers Invergordon, Lerwick and Runavik, with additional stops along the British Isles & Western France and there's plenty of room to breathe between each stop. You get off in Boston, which is a good excuse to tack on a few days on land. Ports up front, sea days at the end. By the time you're back in Southampton, you'll feel properly rested rather than rushed. Crossing 6 borders through the British Isles & Western France: United Kingdom, Faroe Islands, Iceland, Greenland, Canada and United States. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Don't rush through Isafjordur, which is known as Deep in the Westfjords, far from everything. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Caribbean Princess takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 7 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. And August means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All told, 10 ports across 18 nights covers a lot.
