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.

Emma was very helpful with the additional questions I had and the crew very helpful when boarding, made us feel very welcome. The itinerary was outstanding. We had Rob as skipper and his local knowledge of the area, wildlife and weather forecasts was invaluable as the itinerary was adjusted to fit in with the forecast conditions giving us best chance of landing on St Kilda. The two nights on St Kilda were the culmination of a 40 year ambition for me. All the crew were exemplary. I particularly enjoyed being able to visit the bridge from time to time and chat to Rob. Mark was a great bosun, nothing was too much trouble and he was particularly adept at pouring malt whisky, which was a skill was very much appreciated. It was also great to have Chris Gomersall along to show us where to look to see all the wonderful wildlife. It was extra special!
