Rare Keith1010 Posted October 31, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 31, 2017 We have taken several British Isles Cruises. The ports are not all the same and vary by itinerary. If you have booked a cruise it would be helpful if you list out your stops. I would also be posting this on the British Isles Ports Of Call Board at: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=-1&f=233 Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted October 31, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 31, 2017 We have also done a couple of British Isles cruises. Please list your ports so that we can help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted October 31, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 31, 2017 do some research for each port & see what interests you Not everyone wants to see old castles or go to a distillery etc Once you decide what you want to see look at ways to get there eg: ship's tour, local guide, public transportation Check the British Isles forum for ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smm0218 Posted October 31, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 31, 2017 There has been quite a bit of discussion on the British Forum lately about options for different ports, I second the suggestions to post on the British forum. Sandi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Help Sent from my iPhone using Forums The British Isles are a big county w lots of things to see. You have provided us w absolutely no information about your trip plans. Your question is the equivalent of saying "I am visiting the USA and I need to know what I must see and what not to see". The answers you will get will be totally useless.

Rare ontheweb Posted November 2, 2017 #11 Share Posted November 2, 2017 A lot would depend on personal preferences. When in Dublin, we saw and very much enjoyed the Book of Kells and the Carnegie Museum. But, I bet many would prefer a pub crawl. The Scottish Military Tattoo is super enjoyable, but it is only there a limited time. There is also on a limited time basis in Edinburgh the Fringe Festival.

Rare geoherb Posted November 3, 2017 #12 Share Posted November 3, 2017 We had a great time on a Princess cruise to the British isles this past summer. We did a variety of things--a couple of excursions booked ahead of time with tour companies (to Blarney Castle from Cobh (Cork) and Loch Ness from Invergordon). We did hop-on/hop-off buses in Dublin and Glasgow. I bought tickets to Edinburgh Castle in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizmark'sMom Posted November 3, 2017 #13 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Book of Kells in Dublin was on my must-see list, and it did not disappoint. Buy those tickets ahead of time if you can. Edinborough-- I was perfectly happy walking up and down the Royal Mile, and poking my way through the Castle. I loved Blarney Castle out of Cobh. I even leaned out and kissed the stone! The poison garden was also a real treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
