This tour covers the key highlights of the Orkney Islands in one day, making it one of the most efficient and valuable options from Kirkwall. You’ll visit Skara Brae, multiple prehistoric stone circles, wartime sites at Scapa Flow, and finish with St. Magnus Cathedral. Because Kirkwall is a very small port where big cruise lines pre-book most operators, availability is limited.
