What a fantastic experience we had on board the Lucy Mary for seven wonderful days in mid-July. She is a super vessel, very stable on the sea and very, very comfortable. All the crew members were very personable from James on the wheel, Will and Ruari as guides, Sam the cook and Abbie as our hostess. We had the great experience of having Fingal's Cave Cave on Staffa to ourselves as James made sure we got to the island well before the tour boats arrived - of all the places we were brought, this stood out on its own. For me, Lunga was amazing there being so, so many birds present and being able to get really close to Puffins. We were spoiled with Sam's fantastic cooking and also his willingness to work with stuff we foraged both on the shore and also on land. So, thanks to all in Hebrides Cruises for a really memorable west coast of Scotland experience. Brendan

It really was an idyllic holiday, a step out of time, and so special we will never forget it. We had perfect weather (suncream nearly every day!), very good company, fantastic food, a dedicated and charming wildlife expert, a most caring and imaginative stewardess, and a captain with every skill possible.... what more could we want. We both fully appreciated the way James and his crew helped Donald whenever needed, expertly and unobtrusively so that every moment could be enjoyed. I could on for pages enumerating the wonders of our voyage, it is enough to say once more how truly grateful we both are for our wonderful days with your Hebrides Cruises. Warmest thanks!
