Aboard a tall ship you are going to travel this rough area that triggers enthusiasm in all Scotland-lovers and provides spectacular holiday impressions.

Depending on wind, weather and storming, the route for this trip is determined. The captain will discuss this route with you but of course has the final decision. This is a small description of what the journey might look like
Isle of Skye
This is a pearl of an island with one splendor after another. We start the journey with a task Sky bridge as the starting line. Portee is a small and cozy harbor town with a tiny pub on the quay. We sail past a large waterfall and then visit the little piece of New Zealand in the counterclockwise direction. On the way is the famous Talisker distillery. We might do a little stop to visit the destillery. The wind brings us past Rum, Eigg and Mull. We stop at Mull in the picturesque village of Tobermory. All great islands that offer many beautiful walks. We end our trip in Oban. This is a slightly larger town with shops and restaurants. Here ends our beautiful cruise and unfortunately we say goodbye to each other.
