I have cruised before with Hebrides Cruises and this time chose to do the one "that visited the puffins and Staffa". The crew were as brilliant as ever and the food was definitely 5* all the way including catering for the individual dietary requirements too. We were able to land in some beautiful places and did see the puffins on Lunga which is a magical experience listening to them "chatting away" just a couple of metres away from your feet! We also was taken into Fingal's cave on the tender which was an unexpected bonus to the trip. We were very lucky with the weather and our wildlife sightings included a huge pod of common dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, minke whales, feral goats and a sea eagle literally flying low past the ship! Thank you to Chris, Zoe, Craig, Sian and Emma for such a lovely relaxing break. I can't wait to return...

Dear Emma, this was my second excursion with Hebrides Cruises. I echo people’s descriptions of all you do so well. I would add how much I enjoyed the after dinner conversations: what we saw lists, maps of where we had been, and where we would be tomorrow. The captain, Alasdair, told us stories of growing up in the Hebrides and made the history come alive for me. I learned so much from everyone’s stories! One other plus, the crew made sure we were anchored in a calm spot each night. Slept well! Best, Bobbie Hobbs
