You can take this tour in either direction. Longer or shorter stays possible.
Sample Tour (6 Nights / 7 Days):
DAYS 1-4 - Isle of Skye. Travel over the Skye bridge at Kyle of Lochalsh for 3 nights at your choice of myguideScotland's specially chosen guest houses or hotels.
DAY 5 - the 'Road between the Isles'. Join the ferry rom Armadale across to Mallaig (26 minutes). A spectacular day, passing by Morar and Arisaig, through Moidart and Acharacle, to tranquil Ardnamurchan, where the only things that rush are the streams. This secluded peninsula is home to otters, deer, wildcats, eagles and seals. Continue to Kilchoan for the ferry ride (35 minutes) to Tobermory on Mull. Taking at least 2 hours on narrow roads, you will marvel at just what the wilderness of this small area of Scotland offers.
DAY 5-8 - Isle of Mull. Enjoy three nights at your hotel or guest house or split your time with two nights at The Tobermory Hotel followed by two nights at Ardachy House in southern Mull (or variations as preferred), making it easier to visit the Island of Iona (passengers only, Iona ferry cost not included).
DAY 9 - You leave Mull on the ferry from Craignure (every 2 hours or so), which takes 45 minutes to sail to Oban where this fascinating holiday ends.
You can also include a night or two in the bustling harbour town of Oban before/after your island adventure. - Images
