Mike the guide and driver is briliant

Published on Mar, 2025

Mike the driver is a brilliant guide Beautiful scenery Skye is magical A good day out Lots of hidden gems

Fabulous cruise along Loch Ness

Published on Mar, 2025

Lovely modern boat with outside seating on the upper deck and really warm indoor seating downstairs with great viewing windows. Hot drinks and snacks also available. All the staff from embarkation to on board the boat were really helpful and friendly. Really light and informative commentary throughout. Perhaps best to avoid the really early departure due to mist on the Loch. We caught the 10am boat by which time the mist had gone. Departure point had a massive car park, shop and cafe and was only 12 minute drive from Inverness. Would thoroughly recommend this trip and company
