7-night, 6-day Orkney Islands Extra Holiday

Sorry - these holidays are fully booked for 2012 but we will be happy to add you to our cancellation list. We will also be offering this holiday in 2013 and our 2013 brochure will be published in January 2012.

As an alternative you might like our 10-night 'Orkney Odyssey' holiday which visits all the Mainland sites plus five separate islands

Our 7-night, 6-day Orkney Islands Extra holiday began by popular request from guests who had enjoyed our Orkney Adventure holidays and wanted to return to see more of our islands.

This holiday can be taken as a stand-alone holiday if you’ve visited Orkney before and want to see more, or can be combined with one of our Orkney Adventure holidays to give a 14-night holiday.

If you have never visited Orkney before we would suggest you take one of our other Orkney holidays first.

We are offering a choice of two arrival dates for this holiday in 2012 - please see our 2012 dates page.
