Lovely boat trip - Great trip, really enjoyable. Lovely views and great to see the seals. Very friendly staff (you should have a tip bucket for on the way off the boat :)). Only issue was that it was tricky to hear the commentary downstairs (unless directly under the speaker!).

Must do - Just for the comments, it would be worth it. But with the scenery, seals and seagulls, it's magical.

Fantastic - A fantastic experience. It’s the first time we’ve done something like this, and both the Boat Guide/Captain and his crew were lovely. Always looking after the safety of the animals, and providing information to every mile sailed.

Worthwhile even in rain - Great Tour, even in the rain, it was a real highlight for me. Took great moody pics of Loch Linnhe and the shores. The commentary was excellent and very informative. Seal island was a real treat

Seals sighted! - The view of the mountains was hard because of the clouds. We actually got to see deers an seals :) When we were about to get really close to them, the captain asked us to be really quiet and explained why it's so important. Really liked that part.
