Our Orkney Experience includes not only the Orkney Mainland and the linked South Isles, reached via the Churchill Barriers, but also the islands of Rousay and Hoy.

Your 'Orkney Experience' is all-inclusive, with accommodation at a good local hotel, breakfast and à la carte dinner at your hotel, lunch at a suitable pub or tearoom whilst on tour, all entry fees, all ferry fares for island day trips as appropriate, and the services of your personal archaeologist driver-guide included in the price.
