Planning a Trip To Oban + the Islands Workshop

Oban is the perfect base to explore many of the Scottish islands, and during this workshop we will show you how we plan our very own trips from Oban.

Are you planning a trip to Oban and the Scottish Islands?

Oban is not only a charming west coast seaside town, it is also
a bustling transport hub, fondly known as ‘Gateway to the Isles’.

Start your adventure in Oban with seafood, whisky, history and live music, before catching the ferry to your island/s of choice; whether it’s a day trip, a longer escape or a full-on island-hopping itinerary.

Where will you go? Let us help you decide.

Join us, Scotland travel experts, The Chaotic Scot and Wayfaring Kiwi, for a LIVE online workshop to help you to plan the perfect trip to this famous port town and the many islands within easy reach.

Oban Workshop: Fri 31st Jan at 4pm UK time / 11am EST (a replay is available if you cannot attend live).

About us

Hello, we're Yvette and Kay! We've explored the width and breadth of Scotland- and we are both full time travel bloggers who help people plan their trips to Scotland.

We remove the hassle and stress of planning, and make it fun! We love getting off the beaten path and sharing our knowledge about Scotland.

We've created these workshops as the perfect introduction to help you get started with researching and booking your trips to the most popular cities in Scotland.

In this workshop we share all our tips for visiting Edinburgh and Inverness and day trips you can do from these cities.

Do you...

• Want to visit Oban and the Scottish Islands, but you're overwhelmed with options and can't decide which island/s to choose?

• Want to enjoy these destinations as a tourist, but still experience things that locals love too?

• Worry about finding suitable & affordable accommodation, getting restaurant reservations, or missing out on certain attractions/experiences you didn't book in time?

• Feel frustrated with the vast amount of things to see and do, not knowing what's really worth it and what to skip?

• Want to make the most of your time in Oban and on the islands, rather than wasting time figuring it out as you go?

These are the common struggles we see time and time again, and that is why we created these workshops, to eliminate the stress and make planning your trip fun!
