Oban, Mull & Staffa 3 Day Tour

Tour Highlights ( Idea Tour )

Completely Customisable

Three Islands in One Day: Take a stunning drive across Mull to Fionnphort and the foot ferry to Iona, home of Scotland’s first Christian Abbey, with the option of a boat trip to Fingal’s Cave on Staffa. With two nights on Mull, this is one of the most relaxed of our island-hopping private multi day tours.

Castles, Lochs and Hidden Gems: Visit Doune Castle (Outlander, Game of Thrones and Monty Python and the Holy Grail), take a flat hike to Kilchurn Castle, discover the hidden gem of St Conan’s Kirk and visit Duart Castle, ancestral home of Clan Maclean.

A World Away from the City: The Isle of Mull has towering mountains, beautiful white sandy beaches and amazing wildlife. With two nights on the island, you’re a world away from the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh.

West Highland Wilderness: Return via the Ardnamurchan wilderness and the Corran Ferry to stunning Glencoe, with an optional walk and an optional whisky tasting masterclass in the Trossachs.

Tour Description

Day 1: Edinburgh to Oban & Mull

Pick-up from Edinburgh and head north to Doune Castle (Outlander, Game of Thrones and a very silly movie, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, were filmed here!).

Head through the stunning Trossachs and Loch Lubnaig for lunch and a short walk at Killin and the Falls of Dochart—either a country pub or the Killin Smokery! After lunch we head west to Kilchurn Castle for a flat hike, then visit the hidden gem of St Conan’s Kirk before catching the ferry from Oban to the Isle of Mull.

Day 2: Three Island Tour (Mull, Iona & Staffa)

We take a stunning drive to Fionnphort in the south of the island and the foot ferry to Iona, home of Scotland’s first Christian Abbey. There is an option to take a boat tour to Fingal’s Cave on Staffa. On our return, we can visit Duart Castle, ancestral home of Clan Maclean.

Day 3: Mull to Edinburgh

We take the small car ferry from Mull to Ardnamurchan and enjoy a gorgeous drive through this wilderness, then the Corran Ferry before visiting stunning Glencoe (optional walk). Heading south through the Trossachs, you may wish to enjoy an optional whisky tasting masterclass.

We can also adapt the tour to stay in the mainland town of Oban if you prefer, taking the ferry back and forth to Mull.
