About Us

Oban Guided Tours can be enjoyed by all. Our tours are a wonderful way to enjoy the beauty, history and heritage of the 'Seafood Capital of Scotland' and we look forward to welcoming you.

Our STGA trained and fully insured guides look forward to taking guests around Oban. They will share their personal stories about life in Oban, the town's past, ancient Argyll and the West Highlands. Enjoy myths and legends and learn more about Oban's most important sites. Oban has several MUST SEE destinations. While McCaig's Tower may be obvious to all, others are hidden gems worth seeking out.

Our tours strike a balance between facts and fun and are suitable for all ages and abilities.

Charges are applicable to cover the guides insurance and expenses and any profit is re-invested in promoting the town of Oban as a visitor destination.

We hope you will join us for a guided walk. And if we’re not offering the walk you want or need then please complete our online enquiry form and get in touch as we’re here to help.
