The trip was amazing. The staff on board were so friendly and knowledgeable. I had my retired parents with me and our walk up to the top off the island was really accessible only 2 wee bits where a wee bit step but nothing taking a tiny bit slower didn't matter. Highly recommend it to anyone.
It was exactly what I was expecting for the cost. A little bit of a description about the area on the way over to the island, an 8 minute walk from the boat to the lookout, some information at the top of the lookout and then walk back to the boat. Tea, coffee and hot chocolate on the boat ride back. Was worth it for the scenery and going on a. Island you usually can’t very easily.
