Travel to and from Shetland

There is a daily car ferry from Aberdeen to Lerwick, and the overnight journey takes about 12 hours. This will sail in almost any weather and is the most reliable mode of transport to and from Shetland. The ferry arrives at Grutness (north end of Lerwick) about 7 o’clock in the morning, so you could plan to arrive on our day of embarkation and still have a few hours to spare to look around Lerwick. Similarly, at the end of our cuise, there will be ample time to make your connection with the evening ferry sailing. http://www.northlinkferries.co.uk/

If you plan to bring a car, for private use before and after our cruise, we will be able to advise you about parking facilities nearer to our departure date. Of course selfdrive car rental is also available within Shetland.

FlyBe operate flights between Sumburgh and quite a few UK regional airports, including Aberdeen, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Manchester, Leeds Bradford, Birmingham, Norwich, Cardiff, Southampton, Exeter and London Gatwick. British Airways also operate scheduled flights. Please check summer schedules with the airlines. Note that fog can often disrupt flights, and you would be strongly advised to arrive in Shetland at least a day before your embarkation date on Elizabeth G.
