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 an online workshop to help you to plan the perfect trip to this famous port town and the many islands within easy reach.
