The cruise if very leisurely paced and has some glorious scenery. We particularly liked the various lock systems and the various walks available during the cruise. Our guide Will was exceptional - very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. James local knowledge was outstanding and much appreciated. All meals were exceptional and Ruth is an accomplished chef. A delight to sail with this crew. Do it - it was extra special.

A typically delightful trip with Hebrides Cruises. From the warm welcome to the huggy farewell, the crew did everything possible to enable us to enjoy ourselves. Very lucky with weather, we visited 3 of the 4 Small Isles and 3 superb sea lochs as well as anchoring off the glorious beach at Kentra. The visits ashore were appropriate and well-managed—careful landings and a sensible walking pace. Lots of time to really look around and take in the beauty and wildlife we were privileged to share. While at sea there were superb sightings of common dolphin and minke whales. Golden and white-tailed eagles AND otters were a real bonus. And the food? Quite staggeringly good from such a tiny galley as usual. Beautifully presented and suitably varied with all tastes accommodated. Altogether an experience to remember with relish and long to repeat. Thank you to all involved. Jan Shearn
