Fellow guests have already expressed how you looked after us so wonderfully on a recent charter on Emma Jane but you all did such a good job you deserve all the praise we can give you! Please know how much all your hard work, friendliness and expertise was appreciated by us all As a repeat guest I knew my friends were in for a treat sailing on one of your lovely vessels and we weren’t disappointed as the holiday exceeded even my expectations. Thanks to Rob for guiding us safely through the weather, Zoe for her enthusiasm and knowledge, Sofia for pampering us ( and amazing table decorations) and last , but definitely not least , Nicola for her truly delicious gastronomic delights. To all the crew , Rob, Zoe , Sofia and Nicola , you made our holiday extra special and as we said our goodbyes it was like leaving friends behind rather than hosts! Well done Hebrides Cruises and full marks for yet another fabulous trip .

I have to give the weather a dishonourable mention - it tried its best to disrupt our cruise, but as always, the crew onboard the Emma Jane just got on with their tasks and gave us all a memorable cruise ! I think they secretly like the challenges presented !! Some of the unexpected diversions and anchorages were a real treat, bringing the crew and guests together into a big happy group of people, strangers to start with perhaps, but everyone of them were good friends by the end. A great cruise !! I must give the crew their own name checks : Jake - a new member of the Hebrides Cruises family, but already a star, introducing little ‘extras’ when we were in the rib, he obviously put a lot of thought into providing us with the best ! Lynsey - a fabulous wildlife guide, and a fabulous friend if I may claim that honour. Charlie - superb chef, what wonderful meals we were served with, beans on toast at home just doesn’t cut it anymore ???? Jasmin - nothing was ever too much trouble, everything was always in the right place, spotless, and those table designs, amazing ! Perhaps even of more importance than all the obvious skill sets possessed, was the sense of fun, positivity and friendship shown. Marks out of ten for the crew and the cruise ?? Why, 11 of course !! A great big thankyou from me for a great time.
