Product Manager Sam Patton said the company is ‘delighted’ Hebridean Island Cruises has joined its growing international portfolio of boutique cruise brands.

‘We are so excited about our new partnership,’ Patton said.

‘Incredible itineraries into and around Scotland, Ireland and along Scotland’s Caledonian Canal provide a depth of travel just not possible with any other cruise line or tour operator.

‘We can’t wait to introduce this all-inclusive product to Australians seeking truly experiential luxury travel in the British Isles.’

Flourishing Australian market

Hebridean Island Cruises’ Jonathan Moffatt, sales, marketing and guest liaison manager, said the company is ‘extremely happy’ to be partnering with Cruise Traveller, bringing its two small luxury ships, Hebridean Princess and Lord of the Highlands, to the ‘flourishing’ Australian cruise market.

‘We are very much looking forward to be developing our presence in Australia and welcoming more Australians onboard our unique ships,’ Moffatt said.
