If you are looking for a fun, flavourful way to explore a variety of great local food and drink in an authentic setting, our Ullapool Food Tours are perfect for you. Both tours have been carefully curated to combine some of our favourite mouthwatering dishes and drinks from welcoming local venues with an engaging itinerary and expert guidance. On our leisurely walk through the village, your guide will highlight the Scottish producers and connections to Ullapool, the Highlands and the islands of the food and drink we get to enjoy. Our food tours offer not only a feast for your palate, but also showcase the outstanding scenery of Ullapool as well as its history and stories.
Two scrumptious private tours are on offer:
Flavours of Ullapool, 3 hours and 45 minutes, min. 4 people
A taste of Ullapool, 2.5 hours, min. 2 people
Calling all foodies! Treat yourself to this scrumptious food tour and savour tasty food in great variety and a delicious gin and tonic made with locally produced artisan gin (mocktail available as well or other alcoholic drinks). It does not get more local than that. 2 sit-ins and 2 picnic-style stops will make for a great time! Try a Scottish (savoury) pie – go for a traditional one or choose a more unusual but equally mouth-watering flavour. Take in the breath-taking scenery and pause to immerse yourself in the moment. Have a brew of quality coffee or tea with homebaked scones or cake. Delight in Highland charcuterie and Highland cheeses, made by dedicated small businesses. Satisfy your sweet tooth and indulge in Highland fudge. Make the most of being right at the waterfront and enjoy a taste of the sea with freshly caught local seafood, a true treat.
