Lying just off the coast of
mainland Scotland
is the isle of Mull.
Mull is the fourth largest island of both Scotland
and Great Britain
and is a wild land of hills, mountains, rivers, and waterfalls. Its rugged beauty makes it attractive to
nature lovers, but dangerous to inexperienced drivers. The primary road running north or west from
Craignure on the east coast is only one lane and is shared by cars, cattle, and
tour buses alike.
If you have an interest in
seeing Mull, take the Caledonian MacBrayne tour out of
Oban and let someone else worry about the driving. Enjoy the view, whether rain or shine, from
the comfortable seats and learn interesting facts about the island from the
knowledgeable drivers. Mull
is well worth the visit, particularly when you can relax and enjoy it on a
tour.
Note: The tour out of Oban includes the Isle of Iona as one of its destinations. At
the time of this writing, the cost of the tour is reasonable and includes the
price of four ferry trips and two bus trips.
However, it does not include admission into Iona Abbey.
