Discover the splendid Art Nouveau architecture of Charles Rennie Mackintosh before your expedition cruise begins. You'll embark in Glasgow (Greenock) where MS Spitsbergen, one of Hurtigruten's smaller vessels purpose-built for close-up exploration, will be waiting for you.

    Isle of Arran, Scotland, United Kingdom, United Kingdom
    • Isle of Arran, Scotland, United Kingdom, United Kingdom
    Enjoy wildlife spotting on Arran. Welcome to the Isle of Arran, known for its heather-cloaked landscapes. Why not try a hike with views of the craggy peaks of Goat Fell and see if you can spot Scotland's 'Big Five': the golden eagle, red deer, red squirrel, otter, and harbor seal, all of which can be found on Arran. Explore the woodland and gardens of Brodick Castle, and marvel at the Neolithic treasures and huge upright slabs at the Machrie Moor Stone Circle. Your stop wouldn't be complete without a visit to the Isle of Arran Distillery and a taste of their distinctive malt. ...

    • Vatersay, United Kingdom
    • Mingulay, Barra Isles, United Kingdom
    Explore the tranquil southernmost islands of the Outer Hebrides. Today, we'll explore the southernmost islands of the Outer Hebrides. We'll attempt a nature landing on the white-sand beaches of Vatersay, located at the beginning of the renowned Hebridean Way. The mighty wind and waves of the Atlantic have carved sheltered harbors here, allowing settlements to arise as far back as the Neolithic period. Explore the rich history and admire the tranquil beauty of this tiny island, before heading south to remote Mingulay. Abandoned by its resident population a century ago, Mingulay is home to some of the largest bird colonies in the Hebrides. Puffins, guillemots, fulmars, kittiwakes, and more make their nests across the island, including on the towering Carnan Cliffs, a protected breeding area. If conditions allow, we'll take our small expedition boats around the island on the lookout for some of these magnificent birds. ...

    Get ready for the dreamy beauty of the Sound of Mull. Brightly colored Georgian houses line the waterfront in the picturesque fishing port of Tobermory on the Isle of Mull. Learn about the local heritage at the Mull Museum, try a dram of local whisky, stroll around the loch in Aros Park, or pay a visit to the Baliscate Standing Stones. The Isle of Mull is a magnet for birders. It has the highest breeding density of golden eagles in Europe, and white-tailed eagles can often be seen soaring above the coast. We may also explore Loch Sunart, a Marine Protected Area known for otters, dolphins, and porpoises. ...

    • Fort William, Scotland
    See why Fort William is an outdoor adventure hub. After sailing into Loch Linnhe, we arrive at Fort William. The town is known as 'Britain's Outdoor Capital' and it's a magnet for hikers, bikers, climbers, and skiers. As you'll see, it's set amid some spectacular Highland scenery. The town's whisky distillery offers its take on the national tipple, and a scenic walk awaits you at Glen Nevis. Nearby is the beautiful valley of Glen Coe, which was carved out of the landscape by glaciers and volcanic activity. Glen Coe is designated a National Scenic Area, but also has a dramatic history that's integral to the story of Scotland. ...

    Port Ellen, Islay, Scotland, United Kingdom, United Kingdom
    • Port Ellen, Islay, Scotland, United Kingdom, United Kingdom
    Fire up your spirit of discovery on 'whisky island'. Islay, the 'Queen of the Hebrides', is the southernmost island of the Inner Hebrides, with rugged uplands and coastline. The island is the proud home of world-famous peaty single malts - but that's far from the only reason to visit. Islay is a wildlife haven, home to over 200 species of birds, including oystercatchers, gannets, and golden eagles. From its sandy beaches, you can sometimes spot dolphins and basking sharks. Port Ellen is the gateway to three of the island's nine distilleries. Of course, no trip to Islay is complete without a 'wee dram' from one of these famous and historic whisky producers, including Laphroaig and Ardbeg. ...

Lying on the shores of the Firth of Clyde with views across to the high hills of Argyll, Glasgow's impressive fishing and shipping heritage is manifest in the Victorian architecture of the west end of town.
