“One of the best holidays we have ever had. Attentive staff and amazing food with a relaxing atmosphere. Shore excursions were optional and wildlife guides and sightings were spectacular.”

“A wonderful six days on board the Hjalmar Bjørge sailing out of Oban to St Kilda and the Outer Hebrides. The crew were knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and, along with my fellow passengers, made the trip a very rewarding and memorable experience.
Visiting St Kilda was the highlight, but there was so much wildlife to see and islands to explore, that this trip went well beyond my expectations.
I also should mention that the food was excellent.”

“We had a wonderful cruise aboard Hjalmar Bjørge. Our Skipper found lots of beautiful places with a calm anchorage. We saw lots of eagles, an otter or two, and some common dolphins, amongst other wildlife. We had an excellent wildlife guide who was able to point out so many things we might otherwise have missed. The food was absolutely outstanding from a really talented chef.
I recommend these cruises because there are only a few passengers, and we are able to visit islands and other anchorages which larger boats cannot reach. All in all excellent value.”

“Since our first trip on the Hjalmar Bjorge nearly 10 years ago we have returned whenever we could for more - I think that probably says it all! No two voyages have been the same, always moments of excitement and adventure and the privilege of being able to see fabulous wildlife and explore remote, often deserted places. With Hjalmar Bjorge and her crew looking after us so well this is my idea of a magical holiday.”

“Another great cruise on Hjalmar Bjorge despite the weather, with good company and excellent food. The wildlife was spectacular, especially the Alpine swift, the fishing White tailed sea eagle and Fin whales off Tiumpan head. Many thanks to skipper Dave, Hamish, Shaun, David and Linda for a truly memorable holiday. Thanks also to our professional spotters, for Megan for keeping us entertained with her stories about life as a TV wildlife presenter and James for keeping us entertained with his stories about life as a professional cameraman.”
