Tour Overview
Celebrate the most wonderful time of the year in Oban – the perfect way to get into the festive spirit!
Itinerary
Day 1
Local departure by coach or home connect service, then on to Oban and our hotel for four nights. We enjoy a mulled wine with a mince pie on arrival to get us into the Christmas spirit.
Day 2 Christmas Eve In Fort William
Location: Christmas Eve in Fort William
Today we take a trip along the shores of stunning Loch Linnhe to the popular Highland town of Fort William. Known as the ‘outdoor capital of the UK’ and attracting many visitors who wish to climb the majestic Ben Nevis, Fort William also has plenty to do that requires less energy! Enjoy a wee dram at Ben Nevis Distiller or visit the West Highland Museum.
Day 3 Christmas Day At Leisure
Location: Christmas Day at leisure
Merry Christmas! Relax in Oban, open some presents, tuck into a traditional turkey dinner, and enjoy the festive atmosphere in the hotel with your fellow travellers.
Day 4 Boxing Day In Inveraray
Location: Boxing Day in Inveraray
This morning we visit white-walled Inveraray. Sitting on the western shore of Loch Fyne since 1745, when it was established by the 3rd Duke of Argyll, head of Clan Campbell, the town has a long history and many fine Georgian buildings. Explore at your own pace, perhaps visiting the neoclassical church, or the Jail which is now an award-winning museum that tells of the lives of prisoners throughout the centuries. Venture just outside of the town and you will find Inveraray Castle which remains the family home of the Dukes of Argyll to this day and is set in extensive grounds. We return to the hotel for a festive cream tea.
Day 5
We depart the hotel this morning, filled with magical Christmas memories, and return home.
Accommodation
You will stay for four nights at 3-star Great Western Hotel in Oban.
