We'll meet at Oban harbour at 10:30 am and begin our guided tour to explore this little-known town on the west coast of Scotland, also known as the gateway to the Hebrides.

After looking outside, we'll pass by the War and Peace Museum, an ideal place to discover key chapters of Oban's past, including the story of the Dutch ship SS Breda.

Finally, we'll approach the McCaig Tower, a coliseum-like building with the best views of Oban and its coastline. You'll learn about this fascinating building that has become the symbol of the city.
