Jacobite Cruises was established in 1973. The Jacobite Fleet has knowledgeable guides to share with you the history, intrigue, passion and scenery surrounding Loch Ness as you cruise along.
The Jacobite Queen was built in 1949 by R.W. Hawthorn Leslie at Hebburn on Tyne. She was originally called Tyne Queen, and served as a passenger ferry on the Tyne until 1986. She was acquired by Jacobite Cruises in 1987 and rebuilt with the traditional lines of a small steamer. Up to one hundred and fifty-nine passengers have ample choice of covered or on deck seating.
The Jacobite Spirit is of a modern design and was added to the fleet in 2003. She may reach speeds of up to ten knots. The accommodation onboard is suitable for ninety-four passengers and caters for all tastes.
The interior has a light, airy ambience and is well heated. The after deck is partially covered or you can enjoy the fresh air on the open upper deck.
