CRUISE ITINERARY

Day 1 — Saturday, May 1, 2027

Southampton (London), England — Embarkation

Southampton has been England's premier port city for centuries, serving as the departure point for legendary voyages including the Titanic's maiden sailing. Set along the River Test, it sits just a short train ride from London and is surrounded by the beauty of the English countryside. Today marks the beginning of your European adventure — board, breathe, and let the excitement settle in as you set sail at 4:00 PM.

  • Walk the SeaWalk® glass-bottom walkway extending 28 feet beyond the ship's hull for a breathtaking open-ocean departure perspective unlike anything else at sea

  • Sunset sail-away and watch for castles as you head out of the channel to the open sea!

Day 2 — Sunday, May 2, 2027

Cornwall (Falmouth), England

Falmouth is one of England's most enchanting coastal towns, nestled on the southwestern tip of Cornwall where the Penryn and Fal rivers meet the sea. Known for its stunning natural harbor — one of the deepest in the world — Falmouth offers picture-perfect streets lined with Georgian architecture, independent shops, and the kind of charm that makes you feel like you've stepped into a novel. The surrounding Cornish countryside is dotted with ancient Celtic ruins, dramatic cliff walks, and England's southernmost gardens.

  • Explore Pendennis Castle, a Henry VIII fortress perched above the harbor with sweeping views of the English Channel and a fascinating history stretching back to the 1540s

  • Discover the Lost Gardens of Heligan, one of the most famous gardens in the UK with over 200 acres of restored Victorian wonders, kitchen gardens, and a magical subtropical jungle walk

Day 3 — Monday, May 3, 2027

Cork (Cobh), Ireland

Cobh — pronounced "Cove" — is a colorful, hillside harbor town on the southern coast of Ireland, just a short journey from Cork city. It was the last port of call for the Titanic before she headed into the Atlantic, and today the Titanic Experience Cobh brings that history to life in a powerful and moving way. Beyond the maritime legacy, the area is steeped in Irish culture, dramatic scenery, and genuinely warm people.

  • Wander the iconic streets of Cobh itself, where pastel-colored Victorian townhouses climb the hillside above the harbor, the magnificent St. Colman's Cathedral crowns the skyline, and the Titanic Experience brings to life the heartbreaking final chapter of the world's most famous ship — all in one extraordinary waterfront town

  • Kiss the Blarney Stone at the legendary Blarney Castle, a 600-year-old fortress set among beautiful woodland gardens and one of Ireland's most iconic experiences

Day 4 — Tuesday, May 4, 2027

Dublin, Ireland

Dublin is one of Europe's most vibrant capitals — a city where literary giants, revolutionary history, and lively pub culture all share the same cobblestone streets. From the medieval grandeur of Dublin Castle to the Georgian elegance of Merrion Square, the city wears its layers of history gracefully. It's also one of the warmest and most walkable European capitals you'll ever visit, with an energy that's impossible not to love.

  • Step inside the Long Room at Trinity College Library to see the Book of Kells, one of the world's most celebrated illuminated manuscripts displayed in a jaw-dropping 18th-century hall lined with 200,000 ancient books

  • Explore Kilmainham Gaol, the storied prison that held many of Ireland's most important historical figures and now serves as one of the country's most compelling and emotional museums

Day 5 — Wednesday, May 5, 2027

Liverpool, England

Liverpool is a city that punches far above its weight — birthplace of The Beatles, home to a UNESCO World Heritage waterfront, and a football culture that borders on religion. But beyond the legends, Liverpool is a city of remarkable architecture, world-class museums, and a creative spirit that pulses through every neighborhood. The waterfront's Albert Dock is one of Britain's most visited attractions, and the city's warmth is immediately apparent the moment you arrive.

  • Follow the Beatles trail with a visit to The Cavern Club on Mathew Street, where the Fab Four first found their sound in the early 1960s, then explore the Beatles Story museum at the Albert Dock

  • Discover the Merseyside Maritime Museum and Tate Liverpool, both housed within the stunning Albert Dock complex and free to enter — world-class cultural experiences right on the waterfront

Day 7 — Friday, May 7, 2027

Glasgow (Greenock), Scotland

Greenock serves as the gateway to Glasgow, Scotland's largest and most dynamic city — a place that frequently surprises visitors who expect something industrial and instead find world-class art galleries, stunning Victorian architecture, and some of the friendliest locals in Europe. Beyond the city, Greenock is also the doorstep to the dramatic scenery of Loch Lomond and the Scottish Highlands.

  • Visit the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, a stunning red sandstone building housing an extraordinary free collection that includes Dali's Christ of Saint John of the Cross and one of the world's only surviving Spitfire aircraft

  • Escape into the countryside with a scenic trip to Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, Scotland's first national park, offering breathtaking scenery, charming lochside villages, and boat trips across the famous loch

Day 8 — Saturday, May 8, 2027

Day at Sea

After six incredible ports in a row, today is your gift. Sleep in, breathe, and let the Atlantic work its magic. Majestic Princess was made for days like this — there is no shortage of ways to spend it, whether that means doing absolutely nothing or everything at once.

  • Claim a lounger at The Sanctuary, Majestic Princess's exclusive adults-only retreat on Deck 17 complete with private cabanas, plush seating, and attentive Serenity Stewards delivering chilled towels and fresh smoothies throughout the day

Day 9 — Sunday, May 9, 2027

Inverness (Invergordon), Scotland

Invergordon sits on the Cromarty Firth in the Scottish Highlands, serving as the gateway to one of the most dramatic and mythically charged landscapes in all of Europe. This is castle country, whisky country, and the domain of Loch Ness — a region where ancient history and breathtaking scenery combine at every turn. From standing stones to highland cattle, this is Scotland at its most iconic.

  • Take a scenic journey to Loch Ness for a cruise on the famous waters where the legendary Nessie is said to dwell, stopping to explore the romantic ruins of Urquhart Castle perched dramatically on the loch's banks

  • Visit the battlefield at Culloden Moor, the site of the last pitched battle ever fought on British soil in 1746, followed by atmospheric Cawdor Castle — the medieval fortress immortalized in Shakespeare's Macbeth

Day 10 — Monday, May 10, 2027

Edinburgh, Scotland

Edinburgh is simply one of the great cities of the world. Built on volcanic rock, crowned by its medieval castle, and draped in layers of history stretching from the Roman era to the Scottish Enlightenment, it's a city that feels both ancient and gloriously alive. The Royal Mile connects Edinburgh Castle at the top to the Palace of Holyroodhouse at the bottom, passing closes, courtyards, and centuries of stories along the way.

  • Edinburgh Castle is the essential starting point — perched on Castle Rock with panoramic views across the city, housing the Scottish Crown Jewels, the Stone of Destiny, and centuries of royal and military history

  • Hike Arthur's Seat, the ancient volcanic hill rising dramatically from Holyrood Park right in the heart of the city, offering arguably the best free panoramic views in all of Scotland

Day 11 — Tuesday, May 11, 2027

Day at Sea

Two sea days bookending Scotland was a stroke of genius — because after Edinburgh, you need time to absorb everything you've seen. This is your day to recharge before the final port, and Majestic Princess makes it very easy to do exactly that.

  • Book a treatment at the Lotus Spa — massages, facials, and the serene Enclave thermal suite with heated pool, steam rooms, and heated loungers are all waiting — or spend the afternoon on the SeaWalk with nothing but open ocean in every direction

  • Tonight is the perfect night to catch a show in the Princess Theater, Princess's signature award-winning entertainment is unlike anything else at sea and the schedule is will definitely have something to offer!

Day 12 — Wednesday, May 12, 2027

Le Havre (Paris / Normandy), France

Le Havre is one of the most strategically positioned port stops in all of European cruising — from here, both Paris and the D-Day beaches of Normandy are within reach, giving you an extraordinary choice between glamour and history. Le Havre itself is a UNESCO-listed city renowned for its striking post-war modernist architecture, rebuilt after WWII under the direction of architect Auguste Perret.

  • Make the journey to Paris by train — approximately two and a half hours each way — for a day along the Seine, at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, inside the Louvre, or simply at a sidewalk café with a croissant and the whole city unfolding around you

  • Choose the Normandy D-Day beaches for one of the most profoundly moving historical experiences available anywhere in Europe — from Omaha Beach to the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, it's a day that genuinely stays with you

Day 13 — Thursday, May 13, 2027

Southampton (London), England — Disembarkation

You've kissed the Blarney Stone, stood on the Giant's Causeway, walked Edinburgh's Royal Mile, watched the Scottish Highlands roll by outside a coach window, and found yourself within reach of Paris. You're disembarking in Southampton, but you are not the same person who boarded twelve days ago.
