Many thanks to Rob, Craig, Sarah and Zoe for a fantastic week aboard the Elizabeth G. The high winds restricted the potential destinations and so we did not make it to Staffa and Iona, but Rob kept us safe and still delivered interesting events. We were looked after extremely well all week and always entertained. The trip to Lunga with the Puffins, Shags, Razor Bills etc was the highlight (it was sunny) and the memories of the dolphins showing off to us (one almost joined us in the tender) will stay with us forever. Already booked for 2023 and hope to fit in another trip in between.

My long-anticipated cruise on the Emma Jane exceeded all expectations! The weather was superb with glassy seas much of the time. James and Lynsey were amazing at spotting wildlife and getting the ship close-enough for the most incredible viewing of two humpback whales and up to four simply enormous fin whales off the east coast of Lewis. We saw literally hundreds of common dolphin (many deliberately joining us for a spot of free bow-riding), a pod of Risso's dolphins (with tiny calves), nearly a dozen different white-tailed eagles, three otters, and hundreds of assorted seabirds. Chef Jordan produced five-star meals every single day and Bosun Ashley made sure the ship was sparklingly clean all of the time. We almost ran out of prosecco wine, which was produced whenever we had some special sighting to celebrate; in other words, practically every day! Thank you to all four wonderful staff for creating lifelong memories of what even James & Lynsey admitted was one of the best cruises they'd ever experienced.
