Glassy waters are a picture of tranquility up in the Norwegian fjords. This marvelous loop around the edges of the Arctic Circle steps by way of the Faroe Islands to magical Iceland. With its wealth of volcanoes, thermal springs, geysers and boiling mud lakes; the country boasts one of the world's most unique landscapes. Wild, rugged and colorful, with black lavas, red sulphurs and green valleys, picture-perfect rivers and waterfalls, it's also a mecca for wildlife enthusiasts. One of the highlights will be our call to Heimaey in the Westman Islands, home to the country's largest colony of puffins. Completing our tour will be Scottish Kirkwall in the Orkneys - home of Skara Brae and Scapa Flow.
