Celtic cultural traditions define your journey through Scotland, Ireland, and the British Isles. Set sail from Troon, your gateway to Glasgow, before yachting to the Isle of Islay, often called the “Queen of the Hebrides.” With unforgettable scenery, abundant wildlife, and a welcoming community, the island offers many hiking and biking opportunities. Discover Northern Ireland’s small seaside resort town of Portrush (“Port Rois” in Old Irish), set on a peninsula that juts into the Atlantic. Portrush boasts stunning beaches—including East Strand, West Strand, and White Rocks, each awarded “Blue Flag” status for their pristine waters—and is your entree to Giant’s Causeway, a geologic wonder of interlocking basalt columns jutting from the sea at the foot of dramatic cliffs. Northern Ireland’s thriving capital of Belfast offers historic landmarks and museums, rolling parks, and Belfast Castle. Call on the seaside town of Whitehaven on the northwest coast of England—boasting a glistening silica white-sand beach and entree to the Lake District National Park, nestled in the Cumbrian Mountains. Take in the dramatic coastline and 10,000-year-old Celtic heritage of the Isle of Man. Explore Narrow Water Castle in mountain-backdropped Warrenport before disembarking in Dublin.

    Glasgow (Troon)

    Sitting along the banks of the Clyde River, Glasgow is one of Northern Europe’s most endearing and culturally vibrant cities, boasting a variety of art and museums, galleries, luxe restaurants, and pubs. The city’s Gaelic name, Glaschu, fittingly translates as “dear green place.” Glasgow boasts an incredible architectural heritage, ranging from medieval times to the Victorian and Art Nouveau eras, set within a city full of abundant parks and green spaces, making it ripe for exploration. Glasgow is also home to Scotland’s national opera, ballet, and theater companies and is a UNESCO City of Music, presenting a lively music scene. Defined by a strong sense of community and welcoming ambiance, the dynamic city shines for diversity, from the city’s artsy West End to historic East End, home to the 12th-century Gothic Glasgow Cathedral.

  • Port Ellen, Isle of Islay, Scotland
    Port Ellen, Isle of Islay, Scotland

    The Isle of Islay, often called the “Queen of the Hebrides,” is the southernmost of the Inner Hebrides islands. With unforgettable scenery, abundant wildlife, and a warm, welcoming community, the island is easily navigated, offering many hiking and biking opportunities. Port Ellen, a small town on the island of Islay known for once producing a now-coveted Scotch whisky, sits pretty in Leodamais Bay. Its previous name, Leòdamas, is derived from Old Norse meaning “Leòd’s Harbour.”

  • Portrush, Northern Ireland
    Portrush, Northern Ireland

    The small seaside resort town of Portrush (“Port Rois” in Old Irish) sits quietly on the north coast of County Antrim, Northern Ireland. Set on a peninsula that juts into the Atlantic, Portrush boasts stunning beaches, including East Strand, West Strand, and White Rocks, each awarded “Blue Flag” status for their pristine waters. During medieval times, Portrush was a strategic landing place for the castle and settlement at Dunluce, and today its Old Town pays homage to its historic past. Portrush is the gateway to Giant’s Causeway, a geologic wonder of interlocking basalt columns jutting from the sea at the foot of dramatic cliffs.

  • Belfast, Northern Ireland
    Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Northern Ireland’s thriving capital of Belfast offers historic landmarks and museums, including the Ulster Museum, the aluminum-clad Titanic Belfast, and the Metropolitan Arts Center (The MAC), located in Belfast’s Cathedral Quarter. Among shipbuilding and the production of rope and tobacco, the city paved the way in the world’s linen industry, and many of its linen houses still remain in the city’s historic Linen Quarter. Stroll the Botanic Gardens, designed in the 19th century by Sir Charles Lanyon. Named for the five caves along the Belfast cliffs, Cave Hill Country Park offers walking trails with incredible views dotted with ancient history, including the nineteenth-century Belfast Castle and the old stone McArt’s Fort, sitting 1,200 feet above sea level. Take in the city’s lively food scene, including St. George’s Market boasting local delicacies. As your gateway to Northern Ireland, Belfast is perfectly positioned for exploration of Giant’s Causeway, Game of Thrones filming locations, and bicycling beyond Belfast.

  • Dublin
    Dublin

    Dublin, the capital of the Republic of Ireland, sits on Ireland’s east coast at the mouth of the Liffey River. The Vikings settled in Dublin from the 841 AD onward, and existing remnants of Viking history infuse the city. During their reign Dublin became the most important town in Ireland as well as a center for western Viking expansion and trade. As the second city of the British Empire in the 18th century, Dublin entered its architectural golden age and is famous for the Georgian architecture of this period. Historic buildings include the thirteenth-century Dublin Castle and imposing St Patrick’s Cathedral, founded in 1191. City parks include landscaped St. Stephen’s Green and strollable Phoenix Park. The National Museum of Ireland explores Irish heritage and culture. You’ll find just as much allure in Dublin’s parks and expansive green spaces as you will in the city’s lively quarters—from cycling through the quiet glens of Phoenix Park to meandering amid orchids inside the glasshouses at the National Botanic Gardens.
