6-Day Outer Hebrides and Isle of Skye Tour from Edinburgh

Explore Scotland’s Outer Hebrides and the Isle of Skye on a 6-day tour from Edinburgh and discover the islands’ enchanting scenery, history and people! Windswept and rugged, the region comprises a string of beautiful islands, the largest being the isles of Lewis and Harris, both of which are visited on the tour. See historical sites including the Callanish Stones and Dun Carloway Broch; incredible scenery at the Butt of Lewis and Bhaltos; and sites such as Dunvegan Castle and Glendale Castle on the Isle of Skye. The experience includes your choice of guesthouse or hotel accommodation in Ullapool, Stornaway in the Outer Hebrides and Plockton on the Isle of Skye.

Your 6-day tour follows a route from Edinburgh through the Highlands and northwest Scotland to the Outer Hebrides, a far-flung archipelago off Scotland’s western coast. Unlike the northern Scottish islands, the climate is relatively mild, making it a lovely destination for lovers of the great outdoors and Scottish countryside alike.

See incredible scenery as well as historical sites and wildlife during your time in the Hebrides, as well as the nearby Isle of Skye and several exciting Scottish towns on your way to and from Edinburgh. Spend your first night in the fishing village of Ullapool on Scotland’s northwest coast, followed by three nights in Stornaway on the Outer Hebridean Isle of Lewis, and your two final nights in Plockton on the Isle of Skye. Nights are spent in centrally located 3-star guesthouses or hotels, and you’ll have ample free time to explore the towns independently in between excursions. All entrance fees, lunches and dinners are at your own expense throughout the tour.
