The cruise of a lifetime on a fine wee ship with a first-class crew! Rob, our Skipper, was prepared to discuss our ambitions and was very flexible - nothing was too much trouble. Craig (Bosun) tended to our every whim always unobtrusive but always there at the right moments. Sarah's cooking was exceptional and we looked forward to every meal and were extremely spoiled! The irrepressible Zoe, our wildlife expert for the trip, taught us a great deal and was enormous fun! The whole crew made this a wonderful experience and we hope they enjoyed the trip as much as we did. This exceeded our expectations and we reached St Kilda!

What an amazing holiday. It exceeded our expectations. It was our first visit to Scotland and our first cruise. We were thoroughly spoilt. Chris, the skipper navigated his way around the stunning Isles and lochs ensuring we had every opportunity to spot wildlife whilst respecting the correct distance. Maggie, stewardess, nothing was too much trouble. Her attention to detail was excellent especially her creative table napkin sculptures. Carleton produced the most amazing culinary delights. Top quality dishes from such a small galley. Hannah, our wildlife expert. Her enthusiasm and knowledge was superb. She took time to explain things and made sure everyone was able get good sightings especially of the eagles' nests. She clearly loves her subject. And then the flora and fauna- dolphins, whales, seals, and the numerous species of birds including golden and white tailed eagles. A special mention to Emma and Hannah for dealing with and arranging for our luggage to be reunited with us midway through our cruise. Such a memorable holiday and will hopefully return soon.
