Gary and I would love to leave a review - not only for this particular cruise destination - Skye and Small Isles - which was far more interesting and entertaining to reach their shores by ship! However, to explain the whole experience of six nights of first class safe quality sailing, a dance of the taste buds at every meal, the knowledgeable guidance to witness our Scottish wildlife (for which I can assure you there are no polar bears! What happened on my iPad stays on my iPad! and the attention to small details for which only a true hidden artist can achieve - this MUST be experienced first hand! I am sure all seven of our friendly fellow guests will agree - we had the wonderful weather, the wine and the willingness to return again! No doubt - readers of this review - go whilst your legs can still carry you! With grateful thanks to all concerned Love Lesley

The trip lived up to all our expectations, fantastic scenery, great wildlife and best of all, exquisite food. Although the weather prevented us from visiting the Flannel Isles, our skipper Rob, more than made up for that by expertly navigating to white shell beaches, turquoise blue bays and sheltered coves. Our wildlife guide, Will, was extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of the myriad birds, marine life and cetaceans we saw. For me the highlight he found were the By-the-wind-sailor, tiny violet jewels with a perplexing life cycle. And to top it all, Charlie produced the most delicious food for every meal and at times between meals! All together a great trip.
