Iona Abbey Tours

I lived on the Isle of Mull for a few months in 2003, so made it to Iona a few times. The Abbey was under renovation at the time but most of it was open. The ruins were very peaceful, as the tourist season had passed.
Iona Abbey. A 10min walk from the jetty
Lots of history here. Called the "cradle of Christianity" because Columba arrived here from Ireland in 539 to evangelize the Picts and Gaels.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (920 reviews)
Stunning facility that was clean, quiet and comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised with my upgrade and meal at the restaurant. The bar was also great. The only disappointment was that my 6am wake-up call didn't come as I requested. Otherwise, very happy.

I highly recommend the Puffin boat tour with Turus Mara on the island of Mull. If you are staying in Oban you can book at the ferry terminal which includes a ferry to Mull, shuttle across Mull to the harbour to meet the tour boat. Remember to pack a lunch. Words cannot describe the experience of having a few hours seeing these beautiful birds so close up and so many. The photo shows one looking up watching a seagull glide across the cliff top. There are also fulmars and razorbills. You will also be taken to Fingals Cave on the island of Staffa.
