I'll throw this one out to ya. I've just convinced myself that I should do it myself.

On May 30th this year you can travel to Colonsay on the MV Waverley (last oceangoing paddle steamer in the world) leaving Glasgow at 7.00 am and arrive in Colonsay in time for tea (17.30). You will travel down the coast of Arran, stop off in Campbelltown (at lunchtime), pass Gigha, Islay and Jura. Judicious forward planning of accommodation on Colonsay could mean a wondrous few days and a swift onward Calmac ferry to Oban a few days later and a rapid return journey on the regular and cheap Citylink coach back down to Glasgow for onward travel.

No car required.
Unforgettable.

The bass player in my old band came from Gigha. Her Mum ran a tea-shop there. She was a great bass player.
