12 May: Change of Cruise Itinerary


Hebridean Isles at Colonsay — the new destination for our 12 May excursion. Copyright CRSC

We hope you will join us on a coach and cruise trip to Colonsay on 12 May, which replaces the previously advertised Mull/Ardnamurchan Hopper. Due to circumstances beyond our control we have been forced to drop the latter itinerary.

Instead we are offering a sail to Colonsay from Oban aboard MV Hebridean Isles, and we have included a two-course meal in the price. The coach’s departure time from Bishopton railway station will now be 0900, allowing ample time in Oban for photography of Isle of Mull, Coruisk, Isle of Lewis and Hebridean Isles, before we depart for Colonsay at 1430. We expect to be back at Bishopton by 2230.

This trip to Colonsay has many attractions, including the opportunity to admire the open sea and Hebridean scenery from the vantage point of Hebridean Isles’ deck space in front of the bridge.

We apologise to those who booked for the Mull/Ardnamurchan Hopper: you should by now have received an email explaining the circumstances. We hope the new itinerary will be equally appealing, and we look forward to seeing you all on 12 May.

The attractive price of £44.00 (CRSC Members discounted to £39.50) includes coach travel, ferry tickets and a two-course meal with hot drink: click here to book your ticket.

As numbers are strictly limited, please book early to avoid disappointment. Bookings must be received by Wednesday 9 May 2018.

The final itinerary of the day may be subject to alteration, dependent on weather and other circumstances.
