Day Four
Delightful Guernsey, its by-ways strewn with springtime flowers, welcomes Discovery today. Don't miss 800 year-old Castle Cornet, which guards the entrance to the harbour, nor the medieval, cobbled central quarter of St Peter Port.
Day Five
Discovery anchors off tiny Hugh Town today. Take the opportunity to enjoy an excursion to stunning Tresco and its world famous Abbey Gardens, boasting Britain's finest subtropical plant collection.
Day Six
Today finds Discovery in the incomparable Irish capital, city of culture and learning, and one of Europe's most engaging, vibrant cities. Take a stroll down famous Grafton and O'Connell Streets, and enjoy a pint of Guiness in one of the many cafes and pubs, popular with locals and visitors alike.
Day Seven
Explore the beautiful island of Mull with its breathtaking scenery and abundant wildlife. Pretty Tobermory, with its distinctive, colourful waterfront houses lining the waterfront - a familiar sight to all 'Balamory' fans - can't fail to delight.
Day Eight
Discovery anchors off Stornoway, the capital of Lewis. Explore the town, or take the excursion to the mysterious and ancient Standing Stones at Callanish, thought to be nearly four thousand years old.
Day Nine
Today we arrive in one of Britain's greatest natural harbours, and gateway to the Highlands. Take an excursion, perhaps to Inverness, with the famous Loch beyond. Golfers might head to nearby Dornoch, home to one of the world's finest courses, just an hour away, while whisky connoisseurs might make a pilgrimage of a different kind, to celebrated Ord Distillery!
Day Ten
Discovery arrives back at the end of a wonderful voyage.
