Overview

Escape the city bustle of Edinburgh, and head west on the small group Oban and West Highlands Day Trip! This breathtaking area of Scotland contains coastlines, moorlands and mountains which encompass the dramatic beauty of the West Highlands. Explore the cosy, wee villages of Oban, Luss and Inveraray and take in the scenery with friendly Highland hospitality from your guide!

Itinerary

  • Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park (Pass By)

    Our trip takes us along the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond

  • Luss

    The 1st stop of the day will be at Luss. The village is a designated conservation area situated on the banks of the loch. There will be time to wander down to the loch's edge for photographs

    30 minutes

  • Kilchurn Castle (Pass By)

    The castle was a strong hold of the Clan Campbell and we will visit their ancestral seat later

  • Loch Awe (Pass By)

    The loch is the longest freshwater loch in Scotland at 25 miles end to end and is renowned for its trout fishing.

  • Oban

    Lunch stop will be in Oban, Gateway to the Isles. There will be time to enjoy some of the freshest seafood around by the harbour.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Inveraray

    This pretty little whitewashed town was the 1st planned town in Scotland. The finished product is one of the best examples of an 18th-century new town in Scotland, and the vast majority of the properties in the centre of Inveraray are considered worthy of protection because of the town's architectural significance.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Inveraray Castle & Gardens

    Whilst we are in Inveraray you may wish to visit the fairy-tale castle. home to the Duke of Argyll, head of the Clan Campbell. Please note that visiting the interior of Inveraray Castle will not be possible from October to March.

Oban

Published on Jan, 2025

Today we had a tour booked to Oban, one word; Fantastic! Our guide Hugh was amazing! Very passionate about the things he told us and even stopped somewhere where i could see some cow’s! The tour itself was also very beautiful. We saw some loch’s, little towns and a few castles along the way. Oban itself was fantastic as-well. Would really recommend this tour. Thank you so much Hugh and Highland experience. Greetings from the Netherlands! See you next time!

10/5 !

Published on Nov, 2024

I have been on quite a few daytrip bus tours from Edinburgh in the past years, with different tour companies. I have to say this has been by far my favourite - Hugh was an amazing guide, giving us the perfect mix of funny dad jokes and interesting facts about Scotland. He also has a really good playlist (no proclaimers for once, yay!) We even had time for some extra stops and one of those stops was the highlight of the day for me. Oban is always worth a visit and a great place if you want to see something different from the classic (and much busier) Loch Ness route. Would (and probably will during my next visit to Scotland) book this tour again!
