English Elegance to Idyllic Iceland
10-NIGHT SAILING FROM PORTSMOUTH TO REYKJAVIK
Awe-inspiring sites and electric Icelandic nights
This 10-night one-way voyage departs from Portsmouth and visits Amsterdam, Edinburgh, Invergordon, Akureyri, and Ísafjörður, before ending in Reykjavik. An overnight stay in Amsterdam gives you the opportunity to enjoy the city’s legendary nightlife, before heading to Scotland where you’ll get lost (in a good way) exploring Edinburgh’s medieval stone architecture.

Let’s make waves
An ocean of opportunities calling your name.
English Elegance to Idyllic Iceland
Iceland's scenery is like nothing you've ever seen — snow-capped volcanoes towering over Mars-like lava fields, erupting geysers, and epic waterfalls. But in its capital city, live music, handicrafts, and local cuisine almost steal the show. Reykjavík radiates Nordic culture and laid-back vibes. Blending traditional buildings with unexpected designs, mythical creatures with geothermal sites, and a serene feel with a wild nightlife, the world's most northerly capital has a whimsical soul.
