Discover Scotland’s wild west coast on our 4 Day Mull Food and Whisky Tour. Taste the island’s finest whiskies, dine on local seafood and journey through breathtaking landscapes from Oban to Iona
Itinerary
Day 1
Your Highland journey begins with a drive through the rolling landscapes of Perthshire and the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. Pause at the Falls of Dochart in Killin, a picture perfect spot where cascading waters tumble beneath the village bridge and capture the spirit of rural Scotland.
At the Killin Smokehouse, enjoy a taste of authentic Scottish fare. From locally sourced venison to whisky smoked salmon, this is slow food at its finest, crafted with passion and provenance.
Continuing west, arrive in Oban, known as the seafood capital of Scotland. Tour the historic Oban Distillery, one of Scotland’s oldest and most atmospheric, where the sea air weaves its way into every cask. Later, enjoy fresh local shellfish on the harbourfront or join a lively ceilidh in the evening, a joyful celebration of music and Highland spirit.
Overnight: Oban Bay Hotel
Day 2
Board the morning ferry to Mull, sailing across glittering seas toward the island’s rugged coastline. After disembarking, trace Mull’s western coast to the dramatic Eas Fors Waterfall and the serene sands of Calgary Bay.
Arrive in Tobermory, one of Scotland’s most photographed harbours, painted in bright colours that reflect across the water. Enjoy lunch and explore local boutiques before an exclusive Tobermory Distillery Warehouse Tasting.
Founded in 1798, Tobermory is a living testament to craftsmanship and island character. Sample rare cask-strength drams of Tobermory and Ledaig, guided by expert hosts who share stories of the island’s people, peat and passion.
Overnight: Isle of Mull Hotel and Spa
Day 3
After breakfast, choose between two unforgettable morning adventures.
- Visit Iona, the spiritual heart of Scotland, where St Columba’s Abbey has stood for centuries, a tranquil haven of white beaches and sacred history.
- Or visit Staffa, the uninhabited island of hexagonal basalt columns that inspired Mendelssohn’s Hebrides Overture. Puffins, sea spray and awe-inspiring geology make this a truly magical experience.
Return to Mull for a culinary highlight at the Ninth Wave Food Experience. Nestled in a 200-year-old stone bothy on the wild moors, this celebrated restaurant showcases the island’s bounty. Chef Carla Lamont, a MasterChef The Professionals quarter finalist, and her partner John, a local fisherman, create five courses of inventive, foraged and freshly caught dishes paired with wine.
From moorland herbs to hand dived scallops, every flavour reflects the essence of Mull’s landscape. Before dinner, enjoy a guided garden walk with Carla to discover her heirloom herbs and island grown ingredients.
Overnight: Isle of Mull Hotel and Spa
Day 4
Sail back to the mainland via the Fishnish ferry, then journey through the quiet beauty of the Morvern Peninsula, one of Scotland’s most remote and unspoiled corners.
Visit the pioneering Nc’Nean Distillery, where innovation meets sustainability. This independent, organic distillery is redefining Scotch whisky by crafting elegant, experimental spirits powered by renewable energy and zero waste principles. Enjoy a tasting of their award winning releases and discover how modern whisky can remain in harmony with the planet.
After lunch, travel through the dramatic Glencoe valley, where every peak and glen reveals a history of heroism and resilience. Pause at the Glencoe Visitor Centre before your final scenic stop in Callander, a charming Highland gateway town lined with cafés and shops.
Return to Edinburgh in the early evening, your senses full of salt air, malt and memories.
