This is my third trip with Hebrides cruises and it's like meeting up with old friends every time. The crew may change, but the warmth, care and incredible service remains the same with nothing being too much trouble and the effort made to give everyone a good experience is a hallmark of the company. The onshore trips allow for individual choices in how one wants to spend the time ashore while always having the option of a guide who is familiar with the area and advice on things worth seeing . The welcome back with a glass of fizz and home( or should it be boat?)baked cakes is lovely. And talking about food, I have rarely eaten so well on holiday, with Peter in the kitchen producing continually exciting and varied but always delicious meals. Pauline kept everything in sparkling order and James and Lynsey ensured we didn't miss a thing whether it be a sighting of eagles, seals or porpoises - a particular highlight was Lunga and time spent with the puffins! As a single traveller, I always feel so at home and comfortable with my fellow travellers that I find it hard to imagine my year without a trip around the Isles - roll on No. 4!

We had a fantastic trip on the Emma Jane we had good weather and calm seas. The crew, James, Chris, Will, Jaya and Bea were all great and could not have been more helpful. The food was amazing. We swam in the sea several times and the hot tub was a very welcome way to warm up. All the shore visits were great with a range of walks available. We really enjoyed meeting our fellow passengers and overall this has been one of the best holidays we have ever had. We saw lots of wildlife, greatly helped by wildlife expert Will. We are just trying to decide when to go back. Thanks again to everyone at Hebrides Cruises.
