Great trip but wrong name as we could not get to Stonehenge for the Solstice as it was sold out on the cruise ship and we could not get there by car.

Review summary

Two issues occurred on the ship. One I had a massage at the spa which was great but the attendant tried to sell me on two more massages and even charged my room. I had to meet with the manager to straighten out. We like to spend time in the casinos on the sea days but while on a slot machine that I was winning on the casino manager pulled my card from the machine, told me the machine had a problem and then offered to by me a drink. Very strange!

Ship tip

Remember the daily service fee is $13.50 per person so it eats up any shipboard credit you may have.

One of the most memorable sites on the trip but getting train tickets for the train is an issue the cruise line needs to address.

South Queensferry (Edinburgh), Scotland

The cruise hypes the castle which is amazing but we got to see Rosslyn Chaple and it really is something to see.

Invergordon (Inverness & Loch Ness), Scotland

4 out of 5
This was a very nice trip and drive around but the infrastructure needs help as if you do not plan in advance a tour or taxi it is very expensive.
