Fun, Informative Tour

Did this tour with family on Saturday. It was a damp day but weather dried up and our guide was great, greeted everyone personally, so full of knowledge about the area and kept it interesting. Throughout the tour which lasted 90 minutes, the guide took time to chat and take interest in everyone in the group and was happy to answer questions

A lovely introduction to Oban

This was a lovely introduction to the city of Oban. The guide was friendly and welcoming and showed a comfortable and broad knowledge of the city. We met by the tourist center in town and took an enjoyable walk. I recommend this tour for early in your stay as she gives excellent advice for things to see and do, and the more time you have afterward the more you can benefit from her knowledge. The walk is not strenuous (she wisely does not drag you up to the tower on top of the hill, but takes you far enough so that you will know where everything is without going all the way to the castle.

Good tour, Good value

An excellent tour of Oban covering all the main points of interest. The guide was very generous with her time and local knowledge and we thoroughly enjoyed our morning with her. A walking tour is a definite must if visiting Oban and we would highly recommend.

A Surprise Rainforest!

We signed up for the walking tour online prior to leaving for our trip to Scotland. Our guide met us in front of the visitors centre as scheduled and was very welcoming and friendly. She pointed out the key sites and provided historical information about them along the way. We were pleasantly surprised when we were introduced to Oban’s rainforest which we would have unlikely discovered on our own! This was a wonderful experience!
