Our trip exceeded all expectations and took us on an incredible journey around the Islands and ultimately the voyage to St. Kilda…….a once in a life-time experience! The knowledge and capability of the crew, along with their personal interaction and dedication, enhanced everything we did from our daily travel routine, land, sea and wildlife exploration to our cabin comforts and the absolutely delicious food we were graced with each day. Chris, our skipper, Lynsey, our wildlife and daily excursion leader, Greig our culinary artistic expert and Bea who looked after us all so well throughout. Thanks to you all for making our trip such a memorable one. X

What a wonderful experience. Ever since we enjoyed a week on Lizzie G as a dive boat in 2014, we wanted to return and renew our acquaintance with her on a wildlife cruise. And what a week - it exceeded all our expectations. From the first welcome with Prosecco and amazing scones, to the last sad farewell, we had a fabulous time. Our fellow guests provided lovely company and the crew - whose love and enthusiasm for what they did shone through - looked after us royally. Hannah was an excellent wildlife guide, pointing out the wide range of wildlife we were lucky enough to see, Callum ‘glass of wine anyone’ a caring and attentive Bosun, Charlie provided us with superb Cordon Bleu meals throughout our stay and Alasdair as Skipper was not only superb at ensuring we had the best opportunities to see the wildlife, his company and story telling in the eve were great fun. The range of wildlife as noted every eve by Hannah was impressive, highlights had to be Sea Eagles just ‘posing’ for us as well as flying and passing food, Red Deer stag bellowing on the skyline, other sea birds too numerous to mention, and as for the dolphins….! A trip like this is always weather dependent, and although the elements were against us towards the end of the trip, the itinerary was adapted so we missed none of the highlights. In short - an outstanding week. Thanks to all who made it so.
