Set sail on the Whiskey, Fire & Ice voyage, a 12-day journey that begins in Edinburgh’s storied streets and carries you north into the majestic realms of the North Sea and Iceland’s elemental landscapes. This exploration entwines ancient myths, volcanic drama, and high-latitude beauty into a single unforgettable saga.
You’ll leave Scotland’s rich history behind and venture onto the windswept coasts of Orkney and beyond touching tiny, remote villages where cobblestones echo Viking footsteps. You’ll glide past soaring cliffs and seabird-studded shorelines before crossing over to circumnavigate Iceland, where waterfalls blaze down volcanic slopes and glaciers stand like icy sentinels in the distance. Along the way, you’ll cross the Arctic Circle on foot—a literal step into another realm.
This isn’t just an expedition—it’s an odyssey steeped in contrasts and connection: tales of northern lore, volcanic fury cooling into fjords, and landscapes shaped by fire and ice. Discover hidden coves, feel the Atlantic swell, walk paths that whisper ancient stories, and breathe in air that tastes of ancient glacial melt.
