We think you have all the right ingredients already. The things like the weather and the wildlife sightings which are the 'icing on the cake' cannot be controlled, but you all try your best to accommodate and thats all anyone can ask. Outstanding, thank you for making our holiday so enjoyable. Chris exceptional in finding the best routes as per weather conditions and always ready to divert off course for sightings of more wildlife to give us all the best advantage of seeing and experiencing as much as possible. Thank you.

This was a superb holiday, travelling solo with strangers on board the Emma Jane. Some were experienced cruisers; others, like me, new to the experience. The group was friendly and I think everyone managed to do as much or as little as they chose to – joining Will on his fascinating wildlife walks, ambling along the tow path or just watching the view change from an easy chair as we moved along the canal and lochs. The crew made a great team - from James' handling of the boat through flights of locks, Helen's watchful care of us and our cabins, Ruth's amazing cooking (for me, the best vegan food I've ever been served.) The weather was lovely, I saw almost everything I hoped to see and lot more I didn't know was there, I enjoyed the informality and peace of it all. I wouldn't have been able to do this without the waiver a single supplement, so thanks to Hebrides Cruises for that.
