Everything exceeded our expectations. The crew seemed to genuinely enjoy the cruise and took care of our needs and wants easily; it felt that we were with friends. Was wonderful to eat all the wonderful and tasty food - It was a pleasure to have James and Linsey join us at dinner! Appreciated being able to drop our luggage off earlier in the day and the info re parking.
I was apprehensive due to my fear of water however the crew were most understanding and made me feel safe.
By the end of the cruise we both felt so at ease and were enjoying such a wonderful experience that neither of us wanted to leave.

Emma was very helpful with the additional questions I had and the crew very helpful when boarding, made us feel very welcome. The itinerary was outstanding. We had Rob as skipper and his local knowledge of the area, wildlife and weather forecasts was invaluable as the itinerary was adjusted to fit in with the forecast conditions giving us best chance of landing on St Kilda. The two nights on St Kilda were the culmination of a 40 year ambition for me. All the crew were exemplary. I particularly enjoyed being able to visit the bridge from time to time and chat to Rob. Mark was a great bosun, nothing was too much trouble and he was particularly adept at pouring malt whisky, which was a skill was very much appreciated. It was also great to have Chris Gomersall along to show us where to look to see all the wonderful wildlife. It was extra special!
