Orkneyology.com is your online Orkney Islands travel guide - with stories! Our website is designed to give you the tools you need to create a meaningful sojourn in the Orkney Islands. Orkneyology.com is a joint project between Orcadian author and historian Tom Muir, and his American wife, Rhonda. We love sharing Orkney’s hidden delights with people who appreciate them, while preserving Orkney's stories and lore online.
We'll give you the stories and information you need to understand the culture, history and heritage of the sites you'll be seeing. Our goal is to help you discover your most beautiful experience in Orkney, which might be found in some unexpected places. Our web pages point the way to hidden delights you can explore for yourself.
We tell the stories of these Scottish islands with a Nordic heritage, where World War structures, Viking history and Neolithic homes are situated companionably together in the gentle, green landscape. Visit Orkneyology.com to learn more ... and to hear the only living Orcadian traditional storyteller - Tom Muir - spin a few yarns. We hope our site brings you pleasure.
Cheers!
Tom and Rhonda Muir
