Guest Speaker Cruise.

After exploring the delights of Mull and Iona, transit the tranquil inland waters of the Caledonian Canal, lured to the powerfully moving site of the final Jacobite rising at Culloden where 1,500 men were slain in less than an hour. A voyage of discovery through the Heart of Scotland.

Steaming from Oban, our first port of call is Mull, where you can wander at will through the colour-washed shops around the harbour at Tobermory, and discover the traditional, award-winning Scottish farmhouse cheeses produced at the Isle of Mull Cheese farm.

Ashore on the sacred isle of Iona, take time to reflect on the influence of the religious colonists who landed here and established a seat of Christianity in 563, before touring Duart Castle, seat of the Clan Maclean for over 700 years. Proudly guarding the sea cliffs on the Isle of Mull, Duart was brought back from ruin in 1911.

Visit the 18 metre high monument at Glenfinnan, with the lone, kilted highlander at the top providing a poignant reminder of the clansmen who gave their lives to the Jacobite cause. Relax on board as we ascend the series of eight locks at Neptune’s Staircase to Banavie, an amazing feat of engineering which raises the canal by 19 metres over a quarter of a mile.

After a relaxing sail of the Caledonian Canal and scenic Loch Ness, we visit the site of the last and most harrowing battle to be fought on British soil at Culloden where headstones mark the graves of hundreds of clansmen who gave their lives for the Jacobite cause, and the 4,000 year old sacred cemetery of Clava Cairns.
