‪Halfway through a 3 month, 10 country retirement trip and we still can't beat Ros Crana and the Caledonian Canal trip. The combined knowledge of everything from nautical information to history of the Canal to foraging for berries and mushrooms was amazing. Having never been on a cruise I was dubious about living aboard but the cabins were obviously designed with great care and consideration and we were very comfortable with our cabin and en-suite. The luxury of having sufficient bikes, kayaks and canoes for everyone to have a go at every adventure was amazing. The crew monitored the progress of all 12 of us and had us quickly sorted out to be assigned to the right group for short hikes, biking etc. The humour and camaraderie of the crew was infectious and sitting around the dining table together with us just added to the wonderful ambience. Everyone got on with each other and we regularly changed seating at each meal. By the end of the trip one felt as if they had a whole new set of friends. Since the Ros Crana we have continued with a river cruise and two escorted tours through parts of Europe. NOTHING comes near to this and we definitely want to come back in a few years. A great trip for retired people as well, they take wonderful care of all the passengers! BEST EVER! The Health and Safety regime was second to none, very, very impressive.‬

‪If you're reading this and you're unsure / hesitant about this experience, I'm telling you now -- just book it. You won't regret it. The whole week aboard the Fingal exploring the Great Glen was magical to say the least. By the end of the cruise, the crew and other guests felt like family. The food was to die for. And having the opportunity to explore the highlands by foot, bike or canoe (with expert guides!) was simply awesome. I'm already planning out my next Caledonian Discovery cruise!! Seriously worth every single penny.‬

‪This was our second cruise with Caledonian Discovery, having done the Walk the Great Glen cruise a few years ago. This time, we chose to do the more leisurely Classic Cruise, and it was just as enjoyable (and less effort). If you want to experience the Great Glen, look at the scenery, go for a walk, ride a bike, do some sailing or kayaking - this is the cruise you need to do.

The cabins are small and cosy, the food is excellent and the friendly crew feel like part of the family by the end of the week. Can't recommend it highly enough!‬

‪Wow, what an experience, only high points to talk about. Many thanks to the crew, Ru (Skipper) Ben (the amazing chef) Josh (best mate) Seb (guide extraordinary) Sofia for making it such an extraordinary experience.
Sailing, canoeing, hiking, swimming (brief, but worth it) Ben's meals were to die for, he received many marriage proposals.
Cabins were good and comfortable, amazing shower.
I'd recommend the Classic cruise for it's tranquil pace and choice of activities.
Really enjoyed the company of the othe guests. Room for togetherness and solitude when you wanted it.
We hope to return one day.

‪Caledonian Discovery 6 night cruise.

Ok - you’re asking for a review of our recent cruise aboard Ros Crana converted Dutch Barge from Banavie Fort William to Inverness.

Having spent over 6 months of the last year on board Ocean cruise ships I was not expecting too much from this cruise and mostly looking forward to just cruising the Caledonian canal and The Great Glen scenery of the highlands of Scotland. In this respect I was certainly not disappointed and it lived up to those expectations and more! However - Do Not expect haute cuisine!! and Ocean cruise ship standards 😊- that is not what this cruise is about!

My travelling partner and myself spent as much time as we possibly could whilst actually cruising, on the viewing deck amid ships in all weathers that Scotland could throw at us - and it did!! 😂 and we sailed on the 17th.August - Summer? 🫢

We even found ourselves heading straight into an ongoing RNLI rescue of 2 Kayakers about an hour into Loch Ness - hovering Helicopter above us and Rib rescue boat to our starboard. The wind was reported at 40mph and 2 metre waves. Modest for ocean cruise ships but quite enough for a flat bottomed canal barge 😊. We circled the rescue zone for about half an hour apparently standing by in case the two casualties required a warm safe haven. They didn’t and shot off to port in the rib whilst we turned and headed onwards through a very stormy Loch Ness 😊

Cruising periods were fairly short each day through various Lochs and canal sections - primarily to give the 10 passengers on our cruise the opportunity to participate in the varied outdoor activity options offered and included in the overall fare. All participants appeared to enjoy themselves immensely and the crew went to great lengths in encouraging and assisting them in these activities.

Meals on board were very informal and at specific times announced by the ringing of the appropriate hand bell - small tinkling one for breakfast and louder one for lunch and evening dinner at 19.00hrs.

Now if you’re like me and like a more subdued and quiet start to the day with morning breakfast you won’t get it! 🤣
All meals are totally communal and around a large square table seating in our case all 10 passengers and 2 crew out of the 5 on board who took turns to join us 😊. Fellow passengers were comprised of two American 🇺🇸 couples, one Norwegian 🇳🇴 couple, and an English 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 couple - ourselves being Welsh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and not a couple 🫢. Our Norwegian and American companions gave us a good contribution and insight into their cultures and views on British life etc. - I remember one particular one as the Americans were Trump supporters 😊. Our interesting Norwegian couple included a quite well know author, poet, and lyrics writer in Norway 😊.

However - You are basically part of a captive audience either giving or listening to others on possibly subjects not associated with the cruise such as the dreaded football or tales of the unexpected. Don’t get me wrong - sometimes the conversation was inspiring however be prepared to have to wade through the other stuff 🤣 and mostly dominated by the usual culprit. At the end of each meal comes the shuffle of spent crockery passed from one to another towards the waiting crew member who dispatches it swiftly to the adjacent galley. This ritual takes place at every meal succeeded by a short briefing by a crew member of the forthcoming activities and journey itinerary. Be prepared to also get a blow by blow summary of what you have actually done during the day too! 😊.

Accommodation on board is to say the least somewhat compact and certainly not for the faint hearted. Be warned you will get a very loud and rude awakening vibration on the wall of your bunk bed when your neighbours flush their macerating toilet at random hours through the night - most did not appreciate that a no flush policy would be best policy for all concerned for a good nights sleep 🤣

All in all - if your the outdoor hiking and trekking athletic type looking for fuel stops at the appropriate times of the day this cruise will suit you down to the ground - or if you don’t have too! high expectations or aspirations of your physical abilities and just want to travel the Caledonian canal like me - again it will suit you down to the ground 😊.

Many thanks crew 🙏.

I hope my review is of some help and assistance- Bon voyage! 👋 🛳️🏊🛶🚴🏻‍♂️🚶 🦅🕷️🌲☔️🏔️ - Chris.‬

‪This was a magical journey! I cannot think of a better way to get to know the land, the water, the people, and the weather of the Highlands.
I will be recommending this special trip to all my family and friends!‬

‪Worth every penny. Just from the boat, knowledgeable friendly and extremely helpful crew the amazing food, scenery, choice of activities. What made it even more special was their flexibility and help allowing us to bring our own gear and helping us to launch and get back on board, they tweaked the itinerary to accommodate us as well. We had the best time and will return as soon as we can.‬

‪Our recent journey on the Ros Crana (Classic Cruise from Fort William to Inverness) was a memorable experience, different from anything we had done before. From stepping on to leaving the barge we had a fantastic time in the friendly company of the other like-minded passengers and a wonderful crew of 4. As others have said, the crew made the experience special, they were so knowledgeable, friendly and skilled and helped us make the most of the various activities on offer. And yet it was equally OK to just relax on the boat and watch the wonderful scenery.
The barge was really well designed with plenty of space for all the passengers to relax and relive the experiences of each day. The meals were amazing with a different menu each day and plenty of choice including vegan or for people with food allergies. The freshly-baked cakes which awaited our return from each afternoon's activities were a lovely surprise. The cabins whilst small had everything you needed and must be well-soundproofed as we slept like logs. There was even a drying room with a sink and spin dryer for small amounts of hand-washing.
On arrival at Fort William we could have happily stayed on the barge and done the whole trip in reverse!
Thank you Caledonian Discovery!‬
