One of the most popular ways to see and experience the UK is a cruise around the British Isles, and is perhaps the best and most convenient means of visiting the major cites of Britain and Ireland travelling by cruise ship in comfort and style on a British Isles cruise.
If you select a round-Britain itinerary for your cruise holiday, it's an amazing way to take advantage of being able to see all the places you always wanted to visit in the UK but, perhaps, never quite got around to.
A typical itinerary of a British Isles cruise includes touring England, Wales, Southern and Northern Ireland, and Scotland in less than two weeks forget the stress of driving, packing and unpacking, let the ship take the strain! And while many British people have chosen to travel to Europe for a holiday, an increasing number are deciding to explore the jewels of the British isles, right on their doorsteps! The best kind of stay-cation!
In 2006, four in 10 British passengers chose to cruise from a home port rather than take a fly-cruise, British Isles cruising still remains one of the most popular cruises available.
And it doesn't take long on a UK cruise to realise how unique and beautiful the British Isles are. With its beautiful, dramatic, changing landscapes and coastlines, historic cities and towns, historic castles and palaces British Isles cruises are ideal for travellers seeking for mini-cruises, short-break cruises or as part of a longer holiday.
And the concentration of the UK is a great advantage on your British Isles cruise, as the time spent onboard is never more than a few days, allowing passengers more time to explore all the UK has to offer from history, to culture, monuments and entertainment.
Most British Isles cruises commence from the port of Southampton, which itself gives you the opportunity to visit places such as Winchester, Salisbury Stonehenge and then London, with its diverse and fascinating culture, history and nightlife, which goes without saying, is one of the world's major cities.
Visit beautiful St Peter Port in Guernsey, the Channels Islands and experience their old-world English atmosphere. From Wales, the breathtaking Welsh countryside, with its valleys and castles is there in front of you to explore. Cruise the Irish Sea to Dublin, check out Dublin Castle and sample the vibrant night life, then on to Northern Ireland, on your UK cruise, with its many attractions, such as the Giant's Causeway on the Antrim coast.
Or go off the beaten-track, on your British Isles cruise, as many itineraries take in the Orkney and Shetland Islands of Scotland's north coast which have been inhabited for over 5,000 years. And then on to Scotland's great capital, Edinburgh, where you will be greeted by its impressive skyline. A stay-at-home cruise for British holiday-makers around the UK or for travellers from more far-afield, a cruise to or around the UK is one of the best way to discover all the British Isles has to offer.
