    This wonderful loch tour was a highlight of our trip. The skipper and crew utterly committed to making sure everyone has a great day out ( and sees some wildlife even if the weather wasnt on our side)

    What a lovely cruise we had. The crew were very good at spotting the wildlife and giving time for us to see it as well as interesting commentary on the area and its history. Golden Eagles and Red deer were the highlights, the eagles were too high for me to get a decent photo on this occasion but still great to see. Thanks again to the crew for the friendly hospitality, our best day out so far.

    A fantastic wildlife seeking cruise with Loch Shiel Cruises Wednesday 31st July 2024. Beautiful calm conditions , and the skipper and crew couldn't do enough to locate wildlife and for you to get your images .Equally time was taken explaining the history of the location as we sailed along . Overall very good value for money. I have attached 2 images from many taken.

    We did the Gaskan trip which takes you halfway down the loch, where we saw a White- tipped Eagle, and then back. Ali the Skipper was great, he was very friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us a great insight into the history of the loch, in particular Glenfinnan House Hotel and the author Mike Tomkies. Binoculars and blankets were provided. We would highly recommend.

    I really enjoyed our trip half-way down Loch Shiel with Loch Shiel cruises. I live locally and so have seen Ali and his boat, the Sileas puttering back and forth on the loch for a number of years now, since they took over from Jim Michie. Having my niece and nephew to stay, I thought a boat trip would be a great way to show them the loch and I wasn't disappointed. Ali is a lovely captain - friendly and helpful. The recordings, with information about the various sites are interesting. Seeing the landscape, from a boat is always nice. But the highlight of the trip was being able to see a sea eagle (relatively) up close. Obviously, seeing such things is not guarenteed on any trip, but Ali makes a real effort to give people the best chance possible, and he clearly still gets as much of a buzz as his passengers at this special opportunity. His photographs of wildlife are amazing! Many thanks for an excellent afternoon.
