We enjoyed the cruise enormously thanks to an amazing crew. We feel so lucky to have experienced the stunning scenery in this beautiful part of Scotland. Good food is an essential element of any holiday for us and each meal was imaginative and simply delicious! We would recommend Hebrides Cruises without hesitation. Emma was extremely helpful and answered all queries. She described the cruises so well and made them sound unmissable. We were delighted to meet her in person when we disembarked at the end of the cruise.

Responses to my questions very prompt – even on Sundays! And very clear. The description of the cruise, the facilities on board, and what we could expect to encounter subject to weather and tides was spot-on. Embarking on the boat was very easy. The scale of the harbour at Oban makes it easily found and accessible. The crew were instantly friendly, welcoming, and clear about keeping us all safe on board. Our luggage was stowed in our cabins with no fuss or effort on our part. I was amazed how the skipper devised solutions which enabled us to meet our major expectations despite having to wait for seas to calm following a night of strong winds. Scenery was fantastic. Even the fog was atmospheric. Going ashore was always a joy, conducted with expertise by the crew, and being led by Hannah with her unlimited enthusiasm and expert knowledge was not to be missed. Anchorages every night were calm and peaceful. I slept extremely well! The saloon was a convivial place at all times, especially after supper! The foredeck was great for spotting wildlife or admiring the scenery. Do it!
