Excellent experience. Gus was very accommodating and listened to us and we learnt a lot. While it was mildly disappointing that the hielan’ coos were away off in the distance the Hebridean sheep and other animals made up for it. The special treat at the lunch of awesome fresh seafood was excellent. Felt overall it was really worth it and could not give it less than a 5 star review. Thank you Gus!
Campbell was a fantastic guide. He explained the history of the area in a fun, relatable way and took us to see some really great sites in Oban. He also more generally was a warm, hospitable tour guide who we enjoyed so much that we asked him to drive us to Edinburgh for our flight the next day. Would highly recommend Campbell Cameron as a tour guide in Oban
Just wanted to let everyone who was thinking about booking the Historical Tour and Seafood Experience to not bother. The driver was more interested in hearing his own voice and his idea of a historical tour of Oban was taking us through his life story of where he lived, his go cart escapades as a kid and his other experiences. No Highland Cow sightings either. There were basically no photo opportunities given to us and the Seafood Experience was a hut selling fish and chips. Very disappointing. Furthermore the Tartan Tour Company representative, Charles Henry didn't really care.
Very good tour for the cost. The only complaint was the van we were in had musty smell and black mold on interior ceiling and walls. Very uncomfortable for my asthma. Guide was very good and the overall tour was well done.
Mostly a panoramic tour with only a couple of spots to get out of the vehicle. Vehicle not really suited to a Panoramic tour if at or near capacity. Guide Neil & Driver Robert were knowledgeable and helpful
Hello Thanks for reviewing, you were part of a cruise group which means these tours on these days are fully subscribed and we have to rent mini buses from the one local provider. Oban is rural Scotland and we are hours away from other providers. That said it was the pride of his fleet. Because your cruise ship tenders across to oban port and inevitably not everyone is early we have to be strict with timings to meet our obligations with seafood provider. I will look into what improvements we can make and take action for next cruise ship meetings. But may I suggest that you may want to consider booking a private tour on shore land expeditions you will find much more flexibility and comfort.
Well told stories that gave an insight to the history of the local clans, which were placed into context by viewing the relevant landmarks.
Had a wonderful historical trip around the city of Oban. Gus, was our guide and he was wonderful, full of knowledge. Seafood meal at the end was a perfect way to end the tour.
Charlie was amazing! Communicated well in advance, so knowledgeable and met our individual requests. CHARLIE is outstanding!
Robert was a decent guide. He knew the history but lacked the overall depth of details. Having said that we enjoyed the tour very much. The van held 12 ‘crammed’ passengers. The lunch was on the pier at some picnic benches, which was fine since it was a good weather day. The food was good.
Thanks Keith, Robert very kindly came in last minute as the normal guide fell seriously ill and other guides committed on other tours and Robert is still learning fast more of Scottish and local history. We normally do this tour with a modern mini van with no more than 7. But you were part of a cruise ship and in order not to disappoint I hired a minibus. On cruise days I’m looking to see if we can split the tour up with two runs or two mini vans.
I did this tour solo and booked it very last minute, but Charlie went out of his way to accommodate me. He was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing a wealth of information about the town’s history, its role in various wars, recent local events, Jacobite connections, and so much more. Much of the views along the way were absolutely breathtaking. As someone who's moved to Scotland and already seen my fair share of Highland coos, Charlie offered a great alternative for this part of the tour—visiting the fascinating Bonawe Historic Iron Furnace. I had the entire place to myself, and it was genuinely fantastic. It feels like a true hidden gem, with no other visitors (while I was there), and made the experience even more special. I highly recommend jumping into this tour. The seafood at the end was a real treat—I had the scallops in a garlic cheesy sauce, and they were so delicious. Plus, the view from the pier is stunning. Overall, it was a brilliant experience, and for the price (especially for a private tour), it’s absolutely worth it. Just come prepared—Charlie packs in a lot of history and information. It’s such a beautiful and story-rich part of Scotland, and this tour really brings it to life.
