In partnership with RADIO CLASSIQUE, with the exceptional presence on board of Alain Duault. From Dublin to Glasgow, Ponant brings you an exceptional cruise to Celtic lands following an 8-day itinerary along the magnificent shores of Britain. From Dublin, the Irish capital brimming with convivial atmosphere and authentic charm, L'Austral will take you to Belfast, where you can visit the Giant's Causeway. This massive geological formation is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and features over 40,000 basalt columns.

Your ship will reach Wales at Fishguard, a small coastal town between two...read more hills that was once a Viking trading post. Then you will set sail for Liverpool.
