Springbank Distillers and Campbeltown Motor Company, two of the oldest companies in Campbeltown have joined forces to bring a new attraction to Campbeltown this summer.

The Springbank Open Top Tour of Campbeltown will operate three times daily, Monday to Friday, during June and August and special weekend tours will be available during festivals such as the Half Marathon and Music Festival.

The tour covers many aspects of Campbeltown life from the past through to modern times, focussing on the traditional industries of whisky distilling, fishing and farming. There are also quite a few interesting stories about local characters and places of interest which will catch and hold the attention of the people on the tour.

Visitors to Springbank will be given a discount on the cost of taking the open top tour, and bus travellers will likewise be given a discount on their distillery tour tickets.

The new bus can be seen below as it carried out trial runs at the weekend.
