10-night, 9-day Orkney Odyssey holiday

On our 10-night, 9-day Orkney Odyssey holiday we do everything in our 7-night Orkney Adventure, but as the name suggests we go that bit further.

On this holiday we include the islands of Papa Westray, Westray and Sanday, in addition to the islands of Rousay and Hoy, and the sites and attractions of Mainland Orkney. Truly an Orkney Odyssey! Please download our brochure using the red button link above for full details.
