Incredible boat trip with stunning views and wildlife - We went out with Jason for a four hour castle and cake tour. It was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. My nine year old twins absolutely loved it. We saw seals, star fish and eagles and the scenery was stunning. We stopped off for lunch along the way at a lovely local lunch place on the water. Jason was really knowledgable and made the trip what it was. I learnt a lot and loved my four hours on the water. We were also lucky with a gorgeous sunny April day. Would love to go out again and would highly recommend.
