"We took the two hour cruise to Glenaladale. The weather was beautiful, water like a mill pond and we had a fantastic morning on this lovely boat! This is a "must do" activity to really appreciate the beauty of Loch Shiel. We would highly recommend it. We look forward to taking the other cruise destinations on offer next time!"
