All was absolutely outstanding. In particular; All of the crew always were always available to help whenever any was needed. Nigel (wildlife guide) was very good in assessing what the differing guests needs were and made sure they were catered for, from quite strenuous “hikes” to gentle strolls depending on the conditions and what there was to see. Mags catered for Alan’s dietary requirements (hereditary fructose intolerance) quite brilliantly, and provided alternatives of a standard that were as for high as the rest of the guests. Craig quietly, calmly and patiently provided his support and services for all the guests in a very relaxed way and couldn’t have been more helpful. Chris explained the reasons behind our changing itinerary each evening very clearly and supported Nigel to provide a choice of activities, and was instrumental in giving us all the best possible opportunities to see the wildlife and scenery. In particular, we got to see inside the cave at Staffa and seals and dolphins from the rib. Very impressive, all very well organised!

Hi Emma, have just returned from a wonderful whale watching trip in the Northern Minch. In spite of mixed weather saw dolphin, porpoise, numerous Minke whales and lots of birdlife too, including many sightings of White Tailed sea eagles. On our 'great whale day' saw more of the same, plus fin whale and an eye to eye encounter with a humpback whale gliding past the boat side! Such a wonderful day for us all!!! We also enjoyed some wonderful scenery throughout our cruise and enjoyed various shore trips. Our crew_ Charlie our skipper, Lynsey our wildlife guide, Louis our chef and Jasmin our steward, were all excellent and nothing was too much trouble. The Emma Jane was comfortable, clean and spacious. Our fellow guests were lovely and all combined made for a wonderful holiday.
