This cruise itinerary is a hotspot for cetaceans such as minke whales and dolphins; white-tailed eagles and an array of other wildlife.The "Small Isles" of Muck, Eigg, Rum and Canna, each has their own very distinct beauty and character. Island hopping around them from the sea is breath-taking, with always another stunning vista on the horizon, just waiting to be explored. Shorter cruise times between anchorages allow for lots of excellent guided onshore walks and wildlife watching.
While cruising the Small Isles, the dramatic backdrop of the Cuillins on the Isle of Skye is ever present. Approaching Loch Scavaig from the sea is amongst one of the most captivating scenes on the west coast of Scotland A shore walk to Loch Coruisk, one of the remotest Lochs on Skye is a popular choice.

Do it! If your a townie then you will be so amazed by it all and even if you live with wildlife on your doorstep you will still be amazed. As a vegetarian I was particurlary impressed by the standard of meals. Special praise to the crew in particulary, Ruth and Helen, they both went above and beyond to make the trip a really comfortable well-fed and friendly experience. Can't wait to return!

Dear Emma - A really wonderful trip to the Small Isles on the Emma Jane. In every respect it was first class. And so relaxed and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Great food. You even got some Guinness on board for me! And how nice to be provided with a packed lunch for our onward travel at the end. So many thanks to you and the crew for a lovely holiday in the Hebrides.

We enjoyed the cruise enormously thanks to an amazing crew. We feel so lucky to have experienced the stunning scenery in this beautiful part of Scotland. Good food is an essential element of any holiday for us and each meal was imaginative and simply delicious! We would recommend Hebrides Cruises without hesitation. Emma was extremely helpful and answered all queries. She described the cruises so well and made them sound unmissable. We were delighted to meet her in person when we disembarked at the end of the cruise.

Dear Emma - Val and I have just returned from a week on Mull following our fantastic cruise on Elizabeth G. We would like to thank our skipper Chris and his crew of Amy ,Morag and Sam for their friendly, attentive yet professional care .Nothing was too much trouble and we were really well looked after. We were privileged to see some fantastic wildlife including a pod of 50 dolphin and a Minke whale with calf along with many species of seabirds .The scenery from both Elizabeth G and ashore was spectacular and we thoroughly enjoyed our Hebridean Adventure. Kind regards, Kevin and Val Ibson

My cruise was so extra special!! I was so well looked after by all the crew - Chris the captain who installed complete confidence, Craig our bosun who was ever present with quiet attention and ready smile. Mags a superb chef who satisfied the inner and outer me. Alexa so full of amazing knowledge and so ready to share that knowledge with us without ever losing her enthusiasm and passion. Go for it, you wont be disappointed!

We had a wonderful time on the Elizabeth G . The crew were fantastic - extremely competent but great fun. Chris instilled great confidence with a quiet sense of humour. Alexa was always smiling, enthusiastic and knowledgable. Craig helped everyone on the boat and was always there at the right time with anything we needed. Finally, as others have said, the food produced by Maggs was incredible. We really recommend this holiday and only hope that others will experience our wonderful wildlife sightings- including the dancing dolphins.

The cruise itinerary was excellent and the crew and food quality were superb and without fault. The weather resulted in changes to the cruise itinerary but it was explained to us by James the skipper. The attentive service and information on wildlife was amazing. Pip the chef served a good variety of locally sourced food with excellent fish particularly scallops caught the same day and delivered to the ship in Mull.

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!
