BY CAR

Take the A82 which runs alongside Loch Lomond and then join the A83. Travel through Inveraray and Lochgilphead on to Tarbert. Need a car? Car hire locally from Kintyre Hire and Campbeltown Motor Company, nationally from Rhino Car Hire.

BY BUS

There are regular daily bus services from Glasgow to Tarbert and Campbeltown with West Coast Motors. Once here, there are local services to the outlying villages including Machrihanish, Southend, Peninver, Saddell and Carradale.

BY PLANE

Daily flights to Campbeltown Airport are available from Glasgow International Airport.

BY FERRY

Ferries are an important mode of transport in the region, connecting the many islands and peninsulas. There are 6 ferries which serve the region. Tarbert to Portavadie (Cowal), Claonaig to Lochranza (Arran), Campbeltown to Ardrossan (Ayrshire), Campbeltown to Ballycastle (North Ireland, foot passenger only), Tayinloan to Gigha and Kennacraig to Islay/Jura.

BY BIKE

Follow the Caledonian Way, or Route 78, which runs from Inverness to Campbeltown. Or why not ‘ferry hop’ with your bike and explore Kintyre and beyond? Once here there are plenty of biking options for short excursions or longer cycles.

BY FOOT

The Kintyre Way is a 100 mile long distance route which starts in Tarbert and finishes in Machrihanish, traversing the peninsula several times. This is a spectacular way to enjoy the area and all it has to offer.
