Scotland timeshare + cruise

[escapeartist]

We're planning a Craigendarroch HGVC stay to be followed by a cruise--looking for suggestions. We're interested in the Scottish islands, but also Norway, probably in June/July 2019. Any and all suggestions are appreciated.

I'd look for cruises that start in either Southampton, Dover or Harwich England so that you can travel there by rail from Scotland.

I heard a complaint that the Channel or North Sea crossing was rough.
They suggested departing from Amsterdam or Copenhagen, instead.

Have you check the cruise critics website for this information.? There are several cruise lines sailing from Southampton to the Baltic area.
Cruise Critics website is liked TUG. This website only talks about cruising information and it is free to join.

Azamara is an outstanding cruise line. Their ships are small (less than 700 passengers on both of their cruise ships (The Journey & The Quest ); their onboard service is excellent and the food is awesome (that mean the food is 5 Star) IMHO.

We did the Gaelic Explorers cruise with Windstar several years ago. It leaves from Edinburgh and ends in Dublin. It was fantastic. We took the late August cruise and we toured around England, Scotland and Ireland before and after. August is nice because it is the Edinburgh festival season. We were lucky and had perfect weather too.
