4.00Overall this tour was great. Beautiful sights and great commentary from the boat. It had a bar and eatery on board. We were lucky the weather was beautiful and sunny. We saw sea lions sun bathing on a buoy and lots of sea creatures and birds! And Gnome island was cute. My only complaint is that Viator did give us the option to purchase the Inchcolm island stop, missed opportunity.
This is a great trip....

5.00This is a great trip. Unfortunately, we went on a rainy, foggy day, but we could only imagine how it would feel to see all the sights on a sunny day. We do recommend this trip, but consider the weather!
