What an amazing trip! We were aware that there were no guarantees for anchoring off St Kilda or indeed of going ashore but thanks to the expertise and care of James and his crew we made it, and goodness aren't we appreciative. It was a truly memorable and special experience. Lucy Mary accommodated us beautifully. The professionalism, genuine enthusiasm and hard work by all the crew made our trip the best it could possibly be. The catering, wildlife spotting, walks ashore were excellent and each member of the crew played their part in making it so. This was our second holiday with Hebrides Cruises and we would certainly do another!

What a brilliant cruise out beyond St Kilda, along the Rockall Shelf edge and round the top of Lewis and into the Minch. Three kinds of Dolphin, Basking Sharks, Minke Whales and a distant Fin Whale were the some highlights. Bird life rewarded us with the St Kilda wren and a juvenile Barred Warbler whilst on Hirta on the island, four types of Shearwater and a Sabine’s Gull. Elizabeth G was well suited for the challenges of our extended sailing times and the unpredictable seas off the north western islands of Scotland. The crew of James, Conor, Lynsey and Charlie were all brilliant in their navigating, guiding, cooking and supporting the guests getting the most out of our research expedition cruise. Thank you
