A wonderful tour guide and look at Oban

Published on Sep, 2024

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour of Oban with Michelle. She was not only delightful in sharing stories about her experiences living in Oban but also so well informed about the history and current status of life in Oban. She is so well worth the fee. We came away having such a deeper understanding and appreciation for this lovely town. Thank you so much, Michelle!

Great tour - worth it!

Michelle did a great job on our 2 hour tour. She gave us so much historical information as well as the “stories and background” info. She was glad to answer any questions we had. Highly recommend her!

Fabulous tour

Small Village - great Experience

My wife and I were on a cruise that stopped in Oban. We thought it would be just another day but Michelle made our stop one of our favorite days of our cruise. Highly recommend the tour and the visit to Oban.
