Whale watching experience on the Isle of Mull

Ferry from Oban to the Isle of Mull next day whale watching, next day at leisure in Mull and then return to Oban. The whale watching was a real experience sea was a little rough but worth it when a minke whale came alongside the boat. We saw porpoise, seals a white tailed eagle and lots of sea birds. The crew were very knowledgeable . The day at leisure was very wet but visited the aquarium and of course the chocolate shop in Tobermory. The ...

organisation matters

Since everything was well planned ther was no surprises. Mull is rich of wonderful spots and landscpaes and even when weather wasn't helping,there was plenty of activities to do. Local resources are excellent and recommendable.

Fabulous

Everything I feared - traffic, missing the ferry, being alone - didn't happen! Almost everything I hoped to see - I saw with the help of a brilliant network of locals set up by McKinlay Kidd. The hotel was excellent and I met the most diverse and wonderful fellow travellers.

I found McKinlay Kidd purely by chance as I googled for a wildlife holiday. This particular 'package' suited me exactly and they were so helpful about my worries. Carol even rang me to warn me of the route of a cycle race, giving me an alternative route! I happen to think the alternative was the best part of my journey, so I took it on the return too! It was just so smooth and well organised for my all too short holiday.

A fantastic wildlife experience

The wildlife safari trip on our first day set us up for being able to spot creatures for the remainder of our stay. Arthur, our guide, was great. The whale watching trip was incredible. Although we didn't see whales, we saw loads of basking sharks, a rare sunfish and a pod of dolphins, all right up close to the boat. We could have done that trip every day of our holiday! Our stay at the Bellachroy was so relaxing and the food great. ...

I could not fault it in any way

We had a wonderful week on the Isle of Mull - the accommodation was good and the organised trips were fabulous. A beautiful island to which we hope to return to explore other parts we did not have time to see.

This is the second trip we have travelled with McKinlay Kidd (last year we went to Eire) and I cannot praise them enough for their personal and caring service. Special thanks to Robert (last year) and Hamish (this year)

Wildlife Experience on the Isle of Mull

We spent 8 days on Mull and during that time did three all day wildlife trips which were all very well organised and which resulted in some really great sightings of eagles, dolphins, puffins, minke whale and loads of birds. Our accommodation was very comfortable and all arrangements went extremely well.
