Trip was a huge success! Special note must be made of the wonderful crew - skipper Charlie was always in control, calm and hugely knowledgeable and interesting, wildlife expert George relentlessly answered our queries and had great ability to sight activity far away, Charlie chef provided endless, beautiful and varied meals and Sofia stewardess could not do enough for us, smiled endlessly and made stunning table displays. Great team cohesion. Mostly fab weather was a real bonus. Shame about the whale, but otherwise wildlife sigthings exceeded expectations!

We booked up this cruise over a year in advance as it seemed so popular. When we did it we saw why. It was all and more we had anticipated and that in no small part is down to the fantastic skipper and crew. They treated us more like family than paying guests and did all they could to ensure we had a great time. The islands are beautiful in their own right but with the expert knowledge of the skipper we went to secluded bays and gorgeous beaches and always moored somewhere with amazing views. Thanks To Bella the wildlife guide we saw things we would have missed ourselves and we were treated to sea eagles, porpoises, dolphins and a few minke whales! Sammy fed us like royalty with imaginative and super tasty meals and then there was the daily homemade cakes. Yum. Abbie looked after everything on board even down to different table decorations every night and chocs on the pillow. Will was always polishing or painting and taking us shore in the tender. All in all a brilliant holiday and we have already booked up our next one.
