I was looking for a small ship cruise to the Hebrides and spent some time surfing the t'interweb, eventually choosing Hebrides Cruises and crossing my fingers.  I now know I got it so right!  Rob kept us so well informed about the weather and its likely impact.  His limitless knowledge meant we made the best of the opportunities - Iona had never looked to lovelier!  Lynsey - well, without her, frankly many of the sightings would have been missed.  I always reckon any holiday is only as good as the guide - and Lynsey is The Best!  I loved my cabin (I was in no 3) - spacious, comfortable, warm, always spotlessly clean. Jaya conjured up such delights, home made bread, soups, biscuits were beyond superb and those feasts in the evening often showcased the Scottish larder - truly remarkable.  It was extra special, even the weather was kind.  And thanks from me to you for the most terrific holiday - exciting, scenic, fun and full of utter deliciousness!
