Scotland · ORKNEY & SHETLAND TOURS
Stone circles older than the pyramids, a sunk German fleet and cliffs full of seabirds. These 6 are mostly built around the cruise calls at Kirkwall and Lerwick, so they are priced and paced to get you back to the ship.

“We had a day in Orkney as part of a cruise and booked a 5hour tour with Callum from Historic Orkney, it was brilliant! Communication was outstanding and we felt confident we would be picked up as arranged and dropped off in plenty of time. Fun, flexible and informative, he shared his personal knowledge of the Island with us and made our visit one of the highlights of our holiday.”
