We really enjoyed our cruise and were made to feel very welcome on board by a very friendly and knowledgeable crew. The scenery was fantastic, and we enjoyed exploring the islands on foot with our great wildlife guide Lynsey. The anchorages and route were carefully planned by Rob the skipper to take account of the weather and wildlife reports. We were fortunate to see large numbers of dolphins, a few Minke whales, seals and white-tailed eagles, together with countless seabirds. The food was plentiful and absolutely delicious, prepared by Tony, the chef - it was just as well we went walking every day! Craig the bosun was extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble for any of the crew. There was a good library of books on board. I would certainly recommend Hebrides cruises to anyone who is interested in wildlife, walking, and good food!

We greatly enjoyed the trip and hope the rest of the season goes well. Thanks also to your father for his calm management of the ship and those impressive scallops which I now know how to shuck. Impressive meal catering by Sarah taking into account individual allergies/preferences. Also, for providing a birthday cake at short notice. Calm watchfulness for passenger comfort from Craig and Zoe working hard to ensure nobody missed a sighting on land or sea. Definitely would recommend.
