Private Tour from Oban – Highlands, Glencoe, Lochs & Castles

Six out of five stars!
Six out of five stars for Diana and our tour of the Scottish Highlands with her. In our one day, Diana showed us glorious highlights of the area, roaming from the pier in Oban to Glencoe, with castles and lochs in between. What a pleasure to see this beautiful area with someone so knowledgeable about the region’s history, literature, and modern ecology, and so much fun to be with. Diana, you gave us an experience we’ll always remember. Highly recommended!

Best thing to do when in Oban!!
Charlie has so much knowledge about the area, and “insider” information about more recent events. Just a terrific guide and tour!! He even took us to see Highland cows, which our group loved. This is the best way to see some beautiful scenery and castle ruins from Oban. Don’t hesitate!

Really good little trip!
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!

Informative and Fun Scotch tasting
Do not let Mark’s baby face fool you- his knowledge of Scotch is tremendous. We were impressed with his choices- small distilleries- each with a unique history. We enjoyed the Scotch- so much in fact that we are purchasing more of the Scotch for our later stay at Loch Lommond. We recommend him 100 times. So happy to have lucked up on this experience.

Birthday treat
One Day Private Sailing from Oban Marina with Lunch
Bob_P, May 2026
Birthday treat
I arranged this for my partner's significant birthday as she loves being on the water. Neither of us have sailing experience but that didn't matter. What a fantastic day we enjoyed, Raymond and Laura went above and beyond to give us a day to remember, even providing an after lunch birthday cake. And what a lunch it was, a sharing seafood platter which we were able to eat above deck in the sunshine. The yacht itself, Chinwag, was a pleasure to be aboard, sleek and comfortable. We took full advantage of being able to steer her under both sail and power, absolutely wonderful for two novices. Raymond and Laura were the perfect, easy going, friendly hosts and gave us a day we will always remember.

4-day Islay Platinum Whisky Tour – Whisky Included! With free pickup!
davidmK818SH, May 2026
Hoping to be a Repeat Customer
It's been a couple of weeks since we finished our trip across Scotland and the Islay Island. From the conversations among our small group during the trip and afterwards, all while enjoying newly acquired bottles of whisky, the general consensus is that we would do it all over again tomorrow. WhiskyWheels showed us that they have an incredible ability to line up a wonderful itinerary, find the perfect drivers, and put us in hotels that are comfortable and full of character.Now that we're home, and the flavor of peety whiskys from Islay disappear from our memories, we are making purchases from the other regions of Scotland. The way it's going, there could be another tour request coming to show off the Speyside region. The "challenge" of smoke is at times, exactly what I'm looking for. But when I'm not, the Speyside smoothness makes drinking whisky super comfortable and relaxing.WhiskyWheels has a lot to show off to the world. Of course the whisky, but also the beautiful landscape, incredible history of churches and castles, as well as the amazingly friendly people. I hope WhiskyWheels and their network of drivers succeed in doing just that.

Warm tour despite cold weather
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
