14-Day Iceland & Scottish Highlands Cruise

Holland America Line – Rotterdam
July 11–25, 2027

Set sail from the historic city of Rotterdam on an unforgettable 14-day voyage through the breathtaking landscapes of Scotland and Iceland. Aboard the elegant Holland America Rotterdam, you'll discover dramatic fjords, charming fishing villages, ancient castles, volcanic landscapes, cascading waterfalls, and some of the most spectacular scenery in the North Atlantic.

Begin your adventure in the Scottish Highlands before crossing to Iceland, where each port reveals a different side of this remarkable island—from towering waterfalls and black lava fields to colorful villages nestled beneath snow-capped mountains and steaming geothermal landscapes. Spend an overnight in vibrant Reykjavík, giving you extra time to explore Iceland's fascinating capital or venture into the countryside to experience the famous Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon, or dramatic volcanic landscapes.

As your journey continues, return to Scotland to explore the ancient Viking capital of Kirkwall in the Orkney Islands and the historic city of Edinburgh before cruising back across the North Sea to Rotterdam.

Along the way, keep watch from the ship's decks for whales, puffins, seabirds, and breathtaking coastal scenery. Every day brings a new destination, a new story, and another unforgettable view. Combining spectacular natural beauty with centuries of Viking heritage, Scottish castles, and Icelandic culture, this cruise truly is one of the most remarkable voyages in Northern Europe.
