The Majestic Line

From: European Cruise Guide

ABOVE: The Majestic Line's Glen Massan (converted from a wooden fishing vessel) is moored next to Duart Castle on the Isle of Mull in Scotland.

The Majestic Line is different from other cruise lines profiled in this guide: It has four tiny ships, carries a maximum of 11 or 12 passengers in half  a dozen cabins, and cruises to small ports around the west coast of Scotland and the Hebrides.

Three-, six-, or 10-night cruises run weekly from spring through fall, departing from Scottish ports that can be reached by public transportion or private car. Private whole-boat charters are available for families and other small groups.

Cabins have double or twin beds, and two cabins on each cruise are available for single travelers without payment of a supplement. Fares include meals and wine.

If you'd like a saltwater cruise experience with the kind of intimacy that you might find on a barge or canal-boat cruise, The Majestic Line may be your cup of Scottish tea.
