Soak in the delights of Orkney with its spectacular land and seascapes whilst learning about the important roles the islands have played in history through the ages.

Your journey begins with a drive through the UNESCO World Heritage site “Heart of Neolithic Orkney”.  Enjoy panoramic views of the rolling fields and lochs. 

Discover the iconic Skara Brae. One of the oldest existing structures worldwide which lay hidden for thousands of years, is now waiting for you to explore.

Then we travel to another iconic Neolithic site – the Standing Stones of Stenness. Hear tales at the towering stones which have stood for 5000 years.

Take some time to treat yourself and explore unique shops in the historic capital – Kirkwall. Or you can follow our guide around the St Magnus Cathedral and the two palaces.
