Traveler reviews
Arran day trip
After a quick sail from Ardrossan we had our first stop a brodick castle for 2hrs this is a must see and the gardens are also spectacular.Tom our driver was top notch on the history and the area .we also did lamlash and lochranza with a stop at the distillery for a wee dram and a pit stop at the cheese shop yum before heading back across the water .weather was fantastic. This is a trip not to be missed.
Isle of Arran day tour
An unforgettable and fun trip made possible by our engaged tour guide Jeff C. He added levity to our tour. He was also well-versed with facts and points of interest along our drive (both from and our return to Glasgow and on the Isle of Arran). The around the island tour included several stops including Brodick Castle (where we had lunch), Lochranza whisky distillery, Lochranza Castle, a field with an ancient circular rock formation (and where sheep were roaming) and a shop that served Arran's famous ice cream (very tasty). I felt that we had a generous amount of time on the island and saw the main attractions. Expect a 45 minute ferryboat ride to the Island from Glasgow Bus Station. For those wishing to explore outside Glasgow, this would be a golden opportunity to book the day tour to Arran and witness its beauty and charm. Highly recommended!
