Thank you Brian for two fantastic days on Mull and the privilege of being able to photograph the amazing Otters. Your expertise and warmth of your guiding was a pleasure and I have gained a lot of knowledge from your advice and very useful booklet. I will be recommending you to all my friends in Ireland and worldwide, a 5 star experience and a credit to Mull. Can't wait now to get home and see my shots of those amazing creatures, thanks Brian.

What can I say about today? Well it was a superb day, from the sun coming up and lighting the clouds, to our last encounter with Mull's amazing Otters. If you are reading this and considering a day out with Brian Boyes don't hesitate! His knowledge of his subject matter, ability to spot and locate, and his field craft skills, have left me nothing but impressed.

Brian Thank you for an unforgettable day. From the stunning weather to the magical close-up encounters with the otters, it was all made better by your great company.

From the outset Brian is very Professional and Friendly issuing you with well prepared briefing material and discussing the well being of the otters as the main priority before going anywhere. The cost is very reasonable, even more so when you consider that a sizable proportion is donated to charity. Its obviously not about the money for Brian.

I was incredibly happy to be able to see and photograph otters up close. Brian is highly knowledgable, and taught me so much about their behaviour and what to look out for. He even went out of his way to show me a White-Tailed Eagle nest on the way home. I had a fantastic time and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in otters and wildlife. Thank you Brian for an amazing day!
