Asked on July 5th, 2024I am booking a tour with CIE starting on May 4, 2025 in Edinburgh. I was wondering if there are any late April trips for Mull, Iona, and Staffa from maybe starting April 29 or 30?
- Highland Explorer ToursOperator•Written July 2024
Unfortunately not. Puffin season begins in June so we don't have earlier tours.
