It was a wonderful experience, we have such respect for our lovely, calm and totally competent captain and appreciated his sense of humour. Zoe was brilliant and Alice so sweet. What to say about BIff? A total star. The food was magnificent. We visited the Shiants which was our main aim but we got so much from visiting the other small islands too. The abundance of seabirds was fantastic, including four white tailed eagles in one sighting over the Shiants. Who could have believed that a 1000+ Dolphins would join us between Canna and Tobermory. The whole trip more than fulfilled our expectations.

Our cruise to St Kilda was a huge success. We made it safely to these wonderful isles thanks to James and his experience of the Hebridean weather and what a day we had there. Bright sunshine with no wind and a spectacular walk with magical views and then a fantastic cruise around Boreray and the stack with calm seas and thousands of birds. James provided us with a sunny day on the Shiants and we also had some lovely walks on Vatersay, Scarp, Isay and around the Viking canal at Rubha an Dunain. Lindsay’s ability to spot wildlife was amazing and as always we really enjoyed her company up on the fly deck. Jaya’s food was perfect and Sofia could not have been more attentive. A wonderful trip, our 5th on Emma Jane and we look forward to many more.
