PLEASE NOTE: WE HAVE NO DAY TOURS FOR 2021. NOW TAKING BOOKINGS FOR 2022!

This scenic journey into Scotland’s most famous and romantic glen features castles, waterfalls and iconic mountain ranges.

Discover the most famous landscape in Scotland- certainly with the most intriguing geography and history, including spectacular waterfalls and majestic mountains. You'll also see three of the best surviving castles in Scotland, with a chance to explore two of them, plus a kirk that we think is Argyll's answer to Rosslyn Chapel.

This private tour is available for up to five people, and lasts approximately 7-8 hours. We can adapt the tour to any fitness level, or simply enjoy the scenery from your luxury seat. To visit Kilchurn and Dunstaffnage castles, some walking is required.

Imagine Alba - bringing Scotland to you

Carnasserie Castle

A five minute drive from Kilmartin Museum will take you to Carnasserie Castle- technically, a ruin, but remarkably preserved and great fun to explore. 

Built in the 16th century overlooking Kilmartin Glen by an important clergyman, its Renaissance stone work can still be seen, despite having been partially blown up by Royalist forces during the Monmouth Rebellion. You can climb the five-story stone tower via the narrow winding staircase (bring a torch!) and enjoy the sweeping view over the glen.

Visit Carnasserie Castle on an Imagine Alba Day Tour with our historian guide. Our luxury private day tours from Oban highlight the best of Argyll, and on our Kilmartin Day Tour you will see this fascinating castle. Get in touch today to book your private day tour from Oban with Imagine Alba!
