If you would prefer a private trip (from 1 person upwards, and on dates other than those above), you will need to contact me to arrange a suitable date, and then book tickets for you / your party plus me. The landing trips to Skomer from Mid April to the end of July can sell out very quickly, so it is best to be organised book your trip early, certainly before tickets go on sale on 1st December.
