YouTube Video Description

Normally when you think about people taking a cruise, you probably imaging them cruising somewhere warm like the Caribbean, enjoying cocktails on the beach or by the pool. The British Isles may not be a place you associate with cruising, but I’ve just disembarked a 12 night cruise that took us around England, Ireland, Scotland, The Channel Islands and France. When I booked this cruise I did wonder if we would really be able to properly explore Britain by cruise ship, after all you usually don’t get very long in each port and I knew we’d have a lot of extra travel to do to reach the main cities. I didn’t know if I would find the ports interesting as I’m from England and I didn’t know if the great British weather would let us down. I set myself a challenge to visit 27 of Britains best sites and I wanted to see if the cruise would be cheaper than making the same trip on land. The cruise ended up being both better, and worse than I’d imagined pre cruise with plenty of unexpected events.
