| Description | An array of stunning fjords and mesmerising waterways make this enchanting cruise through the Greenland Fjords a special experience. Natural wonders and majestic scenery are mixed with plenty of time to relax and enjoy the midnight sun - all the more enjoyable aboard Fred. Olsen’s Black Watch. Start your cruise with an overnight stop in Iceland’s amazing capital, Reykjavik, to perhaps enjoy the Blue Lagoon, before heading to Greenland. Cruising stunning fjords such as Torssukatak, Tunulliarfik and Tasermiut will astound you, before returning home via the fascinating city of Belfast. |
We’re all a little bit Irish come March 17, but if you’re in the market for something more meaningful than a pint of green beer, hop aboard this delightful nine-day adventure to the Emerald Isle. Cliffs of Moher, Ring of Kerry, traditional music in a local pub... seriously, it doesn’t get much more quintessentially Irish than this. We mix the essential sites and time in the villages to really round out the experience. Even if Ireland isn’t the Old Country for you, this trip will make you feel as though you’re back home. |
