I am looking for infomation on the shore excursions for the British Isles. Does anyone have recomendations on what they saw. What is the best things to see?

Here are the ports we stop at. Dublin, Ireland, Holyhead, Wales, Belfast, Northern Ireland, Glasgow, Scotland, Kirkwall, Scotland (Orkney Islands), and Edinburgh, Scotland.

Would like to see all we can and need to know what is the best way to do it while not spending a fortune doing it.

We will also be spending two and a half days in London. Does anyone have a great site to go to? Need to plan what we want to see and the cost of addmissions. Working on our budget, sure hope we can do this cruise. It will be on the Golden Princess. Have sailed on her in 2003 and loved this ship.

Thanks for your help

Check out the London Pass (www.londonpass.com). I have been to London twice, and got it both times. You can get it with transportation, so you have a Tube pass, and don't have to worry about that. With the London Pass, you get into alot of sights for free, and get a special line so you don't have to wait. It scomes with a guide book, and you can order it ahead of time, and then decide where you want to go.

In Edinburgh, you want to see the Castle, and the Royal Mile, with Holyrood House. Edinburgh is a wonderful city, and really needs more than a day to see, but those are the tourist highlights.

Happy Holidays!
