Historic Trails & Wilderness: Scotland, Faroes & Iceland

Winners 2022 Best Expedition Cruise Line

Welcome to Aurora’s Historic Trails & Wilderness: Scotland, Faroes & Iceland expedition. Discover the wild isles of Scotland, from the windswept Hebrides, inhabited for over 8,000 years, to the verdant Orkney Islands, where ancient Neolithic and Viking sites conjure images of civilisations long gone. Zodiac-cruise past sea-sculpted coastlines watching for dolphins, seals, and photograph seabirds in one of Europe’s largest seabird colonies. Visit charming villages, meet the friendly locals and maybe even sample a wee dram of Scotland’s finest.
