The Spindrift IV is a great choice (Brigadoon tours)

The boat was nice because it was clean, and the seating on top (sorry, not a boat person), had a good elevation and a large, padded seating area, which made for great bird viewing. It seemed to be the best among the other boats we...More

Perfect day

We had perfect weather the day we went out on the boat; 70 and sunny and no wind. We saw two sets of eagles and several seals. We didn't get to see any porpoises though. The scenery from the boat was just incredible.

Not what we hoped for

We had been recommended to use this company, and the reviews were good here, so we tried to book by phone before we went. They said they were having trouble with their boat so not taking bookings - fair enough. When we got to Skye...More

Eagles Galore!

We booked by email fairly late, having checked the weather forecast, and got a prompt reply saying we were on the 'Spindrift' rather than the 'Brigadoon', which was fine. It ended up as the skipper and the two of us plus 3 families from Shanghai...More

Brilliant tour!

Wonderful boat tour. Skipper (Peter) was friendly, interesting and informative. Saw the Sea Eagles and then Peter spotted a porpoise and changed the 'routine' tour to follow a pod of Dolphins for over 1 hour. Fantastic!

Awesome boat tour

We went on the boat tour on a beautiful day in July. Even if we hadn't seen all the wildlife we saw, it would still have been a great tour. The three people on the boat (incl. the captain and the wildlife guide) were very...More

Hi I'm looking to take my mum out on a boat trip. She does use a wheelchair or walker, but can walk unaided. Is your boat at all suitable for her? Thanks Jane

Answer

Hi Jane, thanks for your enquiry, there are steps required to gain access to the boat, your mum would need to be able to mount a step on both sides. We do get people with mobility problems and have always managed to get them... More
