Balloch cruise company give Loch Lomond tour to Hugh Jackman

A Balloch cruise company received a star-studded visit on Sunday from Hollywood star Hugh Jackman.

The Greatest Showman star spent a four hour charter on the Silver Dolphin run by Balloch-based Sweeney’s Cruise Company and visited the stunning Inchcailloch island.

The star was joined by the cast and crew of his new world tour ‘The Man. The Music. The Show’

The group enjoyed a Taste of Scotland food selection, oysters and cocktails and the singer and actor also took a turn at the wheel of the boat.

Owner, John Sweeney told the Lennox Herald: “He and his friends were on the boat for about four hours and we dropped him off at the island.

“He was great company and was chatting away to everyone.

“It was his first time seeing Loch Lomond.

“The trip got booked two weeks ago but we didn’t know who it was for, then when we found out we had to keep it a secret."

Mr Jackman is performing a three-night run at Glasgow’s SSE Hydro this week as part of his new world tour.

While taking the time to explore the surrounding area, the Wolverine star also popped into Bennie’s fish and chip shop in Clydebank.
