The Grand Journey

From Atlantic Roads to Highland Glens

This is not one continuous tour package, but two carefully chosen Valhalla adventures that connect naturally in Belfast. Begin with Northern Odyssey from Dublin to Belfast, pause for a night in the city, then sail for Scotland and continue with Skye High to Edinburgh.

Between the Tours

The Belfast Connection

One Evening to Pause Before Scotland

Northern Odyssey finishes in Belfast. Stay independently for one night, then meet for Skye High’s early departure and the 07:15 ferry to Cairnryan. Contact us before booking flights so we can help align both departure dates.

Skye High in 6 DaysJun 2026 • Friends

“Nick took us on a six day tour of Scotland and, just as our 10-day Ireland tour in 2022, it was skillfully curated and personalized to our small group of travelers. You will get a dose of history, culture and humor (and exercise if you choose) when you travel with Valhalla Tours.”

How active is it?

Expect regular walking, steps and uneven ground. Most activities are optional; contact us before booking if you have mobility concerns.
