Then you will head for the Orkney archipelago and its windswept moorland landscape. Stromness, a small fishing port with stone houses, reveals a rich history of Vikings, merchants and sailors. 

In the middle of the North Sea, the Scottish archipelago of the Shetlands is rich in unsuspected treasures on its raw territories with jagged coastlines. On Foula, one of the most remote islands, man has learned to live with the elements. The island of Mousa is home to Scotland’s best-preserved Broch. Constructed in around 100BC, this tower-shaped fortification served to defend against invaders. Meanwhile, Noss Island is home to numerous colonies of birds, including gannets, puffins, arctic fulmars and many others.

Le Boréal then heads for Norway, stopping off at Bekkjarvik, a village typical of the region.Your cruise will end in Bergen, famous for its Hanseatic wharf that still carries a few traces of the rich historic past of the city founded by the Vikings.
