I was looking for a small ship cruise to the Hebrides and spent some time surfing the t'interweb, eventually choosing Hebrides Cruises and crossing my fingers. I now know I got it so right! Rob kept us so well informed about the weather and its likely impact. His limitless knowledge meant we made the best of the opportunities - Iona had never looked to lovelier! Lynsey - well, without her, frankly many of the sightings would have been missed. I always reckon any holiday is only as good as the guide - and Lynsey is The Best! I loved my cabin (I was in no 3) - spacious, comfortable, warm, always spotlessly clean. Jaya conjured up such delights, home made bread, soups, biscuits were beyond superb and those feasts in the evening often showcased the Scottish larder - truly remarkable. It was extra special, even the weather was kind. And thanks from me to you for the most terrific holiday - exciting, scenic, fun and full of utter deliciousness!

Fantastic week exploring. Didn't quite know what to expect.. but it exceeded our expectations. The crew were all extremely hospitable and made us very welcome. The food provided by Carlton the chef was like going to a great restaurant every night. None of us had done anything like this before and we all came away blown away by it. We had the cabins with single beds at the front of Elizabeth G and given we are tall people it suited us better that the double bed cabins would have. Thanks to Alasdair, George, Craig and Carlton for giving us such a special week and Emma for making the booking process easy. We will be back Stuart
