If you dream of wild coasts, ancient history, and rare wildlife, the "Wild Scotland - M/V Sylvia Earle" tour is your chance to experience the untamed spirit of the Scottish isles. Over 12 days, this guided small group trip sets sail from Edinburgh to Aberdeen, showcasing remote archipelagos and scenic villages that few travelers ever reach.
Marvel at colossal seabird colonies, from adorable puffins to vocal Arctic terns, as your ship navigates rugged coastlines and dramatic lochs. Zodiac excursions bring you up close to playful seals, and with luck, the sight of whales or dolphins cresting the waves. On land, explore the ancient wonders of the Hebrides, Shetlands, and other little-visited isles where history lives in Iron Age brochs and windswept ruins.
Highlights include a visit to the World Heritage Site of St. Kilda and immersive Zodiac cruises through spectacular waterways teeming with marine life. The tour’s unique selling point is its rare access to Scotland’s most remote natural havens, offering birdwatchers and nature lovers a front-row seat to some of Europe’s most pristine environments—an unforgettable exploration by land and sea.
