The Viking ship 'Sea Stallion from Glendalough' is currently moored in Peel Harbour.
The vessel left Denmark at the start of July and is due to reach its final destination Dublin, early next week.
The boat is the largest viking ship ever reconstructed and features some original components found on the wreck dating back to 1042.
Due to a chance meeting with local politicians Graham Cregeen and Bill Malarkey the 61 strong crew were treated to a round Island coach tour.
One of the crew Tria Nicholl is relieved that the end is now in sight:
Public asked to 'stay well clear' of grounded tall ship in Ramsey
RCN wants members to 'make up their own mind' on Manx Care pay offer
Five-yearly NI Fund review brought forward
Pet owners heading to EU or Northern Ireland warned of passport changes
