Cruise · 12 nights · with Ambassador Cruise Line
Ambassador Cruise Line’s Ambience takes you from London Tilbury to the wind-swept Faroes and volcanic Iceland, all in just under two weeks, blending remote harbours with the occasional town that feels as if it might vanish by morning.
Highlights
Port of Runavik with traditional Faroese houses
Two days in ReykjavikWith harbour and lava views
Isafjordur and its steep fjord surroundings
Akureyri’s botanical garden and fjord lookout
Small ferry port of Klaksvik in the Faroes
The twelve-night voyage from London Tilbury heads first to the Faroes, touching Runavik and Klaksvik, small ports where turf-roofed houses and narrow alleys hint at a quiet, weathered life far north. Then the coastline of Iceland unfolds, beginning with Reykjavik, a compact capital where colourfully painted houses edge the harbour amid distant lava fields.
Journeys

The ship then calls at Isafjordur, a fjord town with steep mountains almost close enough to touch from the quay. Next is Akureyri, Iceland’s second city, small enough to stroll across but big enough to have its own botanical garden and a lookout that surveys Eyjafjörður fjord. Between the rugged islands and volcanic landscapes, the Ambience offers a measured pace that doesn’t rush the passages or the ports.
Ambassador Cruise Line’s Ambience makes a quiet return to London Tilbury after a dozen days at sea. If the thought of northern air mixed with peat smoke and single-lane mountain roads holds appeal, a place on the ship may be worth considering.
