Excursion visiting historic Truro – the county town of Cornwall and the region's only city. At its centre you'll find vibrant shopping, cultural charms and impressive architecture, including the Gothic towers of the cathedral that dominate the skyline.

We continue on to call at pretty St Mawes, one of Cornwall’s most exclusive waterside villages. Once an important port in medieval times, now the picturesque harbour is busy with fishing boats under the watchful gaze of the perfectly preserved coastal fortress of St. Mawes Castle.

Return home.

Important note regarding Isle of Scilly excursion: We recommend you take suitable clothing and footwear as the weather is changeable. The exact duration of your journey will depend on the tides and weather, but it usually takes between 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours. As the ship makes its way into the Atlantic, it passes a point where several ocean currents meet, so the sea can occasionally get choppy. As with any sea crossing, it might be a good idea to bring some medication with you if you’re often prone to motion sickness (there isn't any kept on board the ship). The excursion to the Isles of Scilly is subject to operational and weather conditions and an alternative excursion may be offered.

You will stay for four nights at the 3-star St Ives Bay Hotel in St Ives.
