Hi Emma - Just a quick email to say how much we enjoyed the cruise on Emma Jane. It crops up regularly now in conversation and we have enjoyed looking back over the photos. Claire was a bit worried as she doesn’t travel so well on boats/ships, but apart from one day, coped really well and came away loving the experience. James, Helen, Lynsey and Caroline looked after us so well. We loved the trips ashore, exploring (we couldn’t fault Lynsey’s eternal optimism and enthusiasm on what we might spot!), and then to be met by Helen popping the fizz on our return, with beautiful cake baked by Caroline.....well, enough, you get the picture..really great.

The week on board the Emma Jane definitely fulfilled evereything we asked for when we booked this cruise! Our main wishes were to search for wildlife, and have unique whiskey experiences. We had a spectacular week with sunny skies and calm seas, and were really lucky to spot the first minke whales of the season! Lunga and its amazing puffin colony were definitely a highlight for us, as this was our first encounter with these beautiful sea parrots. Our crew went out of their way to make sure we got to see as many species of wildlife as possilbe both on sea and during land excursions, and we had amazing experiences visiting Rum, Eigg, Cana and Mull - with dolphins, seals, eagles, a million different types of birds, ducks and geese, and even red deer and the gorgeous Rum ponies. Thanks to the special efforts of our crew, we had a very unique cask-whiskey tasting experience at Tobermory, which we truly cherish. This was our first trip to Scotland, and it proved to be both a wonderful family experience and a great holiday retreat. We would love to be back and explore further!
