Private driving tour from Edinburgh to Oban

On this day tour from Edinburgh to Oban we can explore some of the more interesting Scottish history, get some amazing views, try some local food and maybe even have a dram of whisky, or if that's not your thing, a gin or a beer. Oban is well known for it's seafood, it's whisky and some great views. On the way to and from Oban we also have amazing places we could see such as Kilchurn castle, St. Conans Kirk and perhaps meet some Highland cows. Whatever you would like to get from the day I will do my best to make happen. Please note that whisky tours at Oban distillery or a whisky tasting at a local pub would be subject to availability.

Leaving Edinburgh at 8am we will drive to Oban, perhaps stopping off for a view of Stirling Castle and visiting St. Conans Kirk or visiting some Highland cows on the way. Once in Oban we will explore the waterfront area (Oban mean "Little Bay" in Scottish Gaelic), get some great views from Mc'Caigs Tower and learn about Oban's links to the distant past in the time of Vikings, Georgian Times with the literary works of Sir Walter Scott and even more recent links to WWII and the Cold War. Famous for it's seafood, you can get some local food from seafood stalls in the summer months, visit a seafood restaurant of even one of the famous Fish and Chip shops. If you would like to try some whisky, the Oban distillery offers tours and tastings, but for something more intimate I know a great local whisky bar where can not only try some local Oban whisky, but you can compare and contrast with other great malts from all over Scotland.
