Excursion Info: Your Journey
Come and see the stars of today and discover the stars of tomorrow at the world-famous Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Paul Merton, Nish Kumar, Jason Byrne, Miriam Margolyes, Bob Geldof and Alan Davies were among the headline names who appeared during 2025.
But you can find some of the best performers appearing free in the cobbled streets and squares of the Old Town.
The fun starts from the moment you board the Northern Belle over a red carpet and ourliveried steward hands you a sparkling Mimosa cocktail.
Next comes a delicious three-course brunch as you settle back in your plush armchair and we head north towards Scotland.
Then after five hours exploring Auld Reekie, as the Scottish capital is known, you will return to the Northern Belle for yet more champagne before tucking into a sumptuous six-course dinner during the journey home.
Our resident musicians will be serenading you while you dine, and our onboard conjuror will get up to his tricks as he wanders from table to table to add an extra touch of magic to the day.
