Our family of three mostly enjoyed our British Isles cruise out of Southampton. We had cruised with Princess 5 years ago on a land/sea adventure to Alaska which was outstanding so we chose Princess again based mostly on this itinerary.

We flew from the US to London 3 days early so we could get over our jet lag and see some of the sights of London prior to the cruise.

Our balcony cabin was fine. Our steward made up the bunk for our 12-year-old daughter every evening which worked great for her. The beds were amazingly comfortable! We loved having a balcony to see the passing scenery and the ports. I can't imagine not having a balcony cabin for this itinerary as there is so much beautiful scenery throughout the cruise. Our cabin was maintained very well by our steward. The TV froze a few times but once we figured out that unplugging and plugging it back in resolved the issue, it was fine.

Cobh (Cork)

We booked a small van tour of Blarney & Kinsale with eCoach tours and had a great day. Ian was our guide and was delightful. I would highly recommend this tour company.

Greenock (Glasgow)

We booked a 5-hour private walking tour with Glasgow Private Tours. The tour company also arranged our transportation to/from the ship as it is about 45 minutes to Glasgow. We had a great day and found Elsa, our tour guide, to be very knowledgeable and a terrific guide.
