Scotland is a world class cruising destination with cruise ships visiting ports such as Greenock (Glasgow), Edinburgh, South Queensferry, Portree on Skye, Invergordon near Inverness, Orkney and Oban on the west coast of the country.
There is so much to see at each destination and there is no better way to experience the country than on a cruise ship allowing you to visit so much of the country in a just couple of days that would normally take you a few weeks.
The popularity of Scotland as a cruise destination is thanks to the recent publicity as well as the more conventional reasons. It has been named the top filming location in the world and with shows such as Outlander and hit blockbusters like James Bond, you can see why. Scotland acts almost as a character in its own right, wowing audiences with the dramatic scenery and friendly wildlife.
Clyde Coast Tourism and Invergordon Tours have teamed up to make the ultimate cruise package allowing you the peace of mind that you will be looked after at each port and taken to some of the most awe inspiring places in the country. We offer coach tours and private tours and depending on your group size, can bespoke itineraries to match your needs.
