This is a lovely boat trip taking in the 3 bridges and blackness Castle where some of outlander was filmed, trip lasts an hour and a half with both the captain and a recorded commentary fill you in with extensive, very informative, knowledgeable commentary Kyle the single crewman ( along with the captain ), was excellent company, friendly and the perfect host for anyone who who spoke to him, he took time to acknowledge everyone and also was very knowledgeable with any questions asked and he also makes a fabulous cup of tea. Both the captain and Kyle made this trip so enjoyable and would definitely recommend it

The two hour boat ride with Forth Boat Tours was an excellent experience. Kyle was extremely friendly and served the cream teas with a smile whilst also looking after the boat. The commentary from both the recorded narrative and the captain really added to the experience. The real highlight though were the views under all three bridges. Would highly recommend.
