CRUISE HIGHLIGHTS

A collection of our favourite sights and attractions, hand-picked to enrich the senses and the souls of all who experience them.

Check out the Entertainment

After an energetic walk ashore, the comfort and homeliness of Hebridean Princess welcomes you back as though to your own home; and that is how we, and more importantly our guests, like to think of this unusual little ship. ‘Like home but better’ is how she is often described.

Check out the Dining

Fine dining is a vital part of the perfect cruising experience. On Hebridean Princess, we take special pride in the quality of our cuisine, prepared by expert chefs from locally sourced produce. Our wines are carefully selected to complement our varied menus.

Weather permitting, light barbecues are sometimes held on deck or ashore. Hebridean picnics on some of our longer Footloose walks are said to be legendary!

Breakfasts are informal and are as healthy or as hearty as you choose with fresh fruit, home-baked breads, cooked Scottish fayre and of course, Chef’s own take on that Scottish staple (porridge), with or without a wee dram!

Our Gala Dinners are sparkling occasions, from the Champagne reception in the Tiree Lounge to a gourmet dinner – and no cruise would be complete without a traditional recital of Robert Burns’ Address to a Haggis!

Guests can choose to dine on their own, with a companion or on a larger table hosted by one of the Ship’s Officers, ideal for solo travellers
