Hebridean Island Cruises is perhaps the world's most unusual cruise company, flying in the face of fashion to operate only small ships.
Our fleet comprises just two vessels, each dedicated to providing the finest holidays afloat - an extraordinary level of personal service and a unique experience for the few - never something ordinary for a crowd.
Hebridean Princess sails among the lovely islands of the western coast of Scotland, venturing occasionally to Scandinavia and to France via the Scilly and Channel Islands on her 4 to 10 night itineraries. She has 30 cabins, 11 especially designed for the solo traveller and one suite.

There are two balcony cabins. Deep upholstered sofas and Inglenook style fireplace contribute to the stately but relaxing atmosphere of the Tiree Lounge on board. There is an exercise suite situated on the Waterfront Deck. Gastronomic delights await our guests, served in the graceful cherry wood panelled Columba Restaurant and occasionally on the charming teak Skye Deck, where tea, coffee and drinks can be enjoyed all day. No fewer than five chefs combine to create a culinary voyage of discovery to complement the majesty of the passing views. Taking only 49 guests, her country house ambience is maintained by a crew to passenger ratio of almost 1 to 1.
Hebridean Spirit shares all the excellent characteristics of her gracious older sister. Spirit voyages from the Bay of Bengal to the Arctic Circle, all year round, exploring some of the world’s most beautiful regions in sublime comfort and style. As a small vessel she has access to some of the loveliest and least-visited corners of the world. Her itineraries are from 4 to 17 nights and she can accommodate up to 80 passengers in 49 cabins, 16 of which are single, two suites and 8 balcony cabins.
Guests can enjoy fine dining in the elegant Argyll Restaurant or eat al fresco in the Mizzen Brasserie. The splendid, light-filled Panorama Lounge has drawn accolades for its delightful design, and the comfortable Skye Lounge is the perfect place in which to take afternoon tea or an after-dinner drink. The Spa offers health, hair and beauty treatments and houses an exercise suite.
The rare, the beautiful and the rewarding are our speciality.
