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!

OMG, if you have cruised before then this is next level, if you haven't then you are in for a real treat. from booking to end this has been a real metaphorical and physical treat, St Kilda is a bucket list trip so why not do it in stye? The vessel is exceptional, the food is next level ( I should know I own a couple), hats off to the steward, deckhand and captain for the knowledge, hospitality and friendliness, I feel I could now sail the Atlantic single handed :-), to have your own wildlife guide is amazing but to have one with such passion and knowledge is inspiring. I could go on and on about this trip so much so that you may think I work for them (I don't) but praise given where praise is due, Thank you Hebrides Cruise for such an amazing trip. See you in May 26
