Outer Hebrides Fly-Drive
Outer Hebrides Fly-Drive - McKinlay Kidd
Experience Barra's beach airport & maximise your holiday time in the magical Outer Hebrides. We can tailor-make any element of this trip to suit your individual requirements - just give us a call on 0141 260 9260.
With flight times of around an hour from central Scotland, it has never been easier to reach the beautiful Outer Hebrides with their beaches, history and general sense of escape.
In response to demand from customers, we are now able to offer one-way car hire to self-drive tip to toe (or toe to tip) of this magical string of islands. Fly into Barra and land on the sand of the cockle beach, before heading North through the intriguing Uists to Harris, with its expansive silver sands, and Lewis to admire the mysterious standing stones of Calaneis. Then drop the car in Stornoway and fly away home.
