Transport and Tours
Papa Westray Island Tours
Papay Community Co-operative offers the popular 'Peedie Package' tour of Papa Westray every
Wednesday and Saturday during the summer season. After a morning pick-up from the Westray ferry (or the plane
by prior arrangement) there is a guided bus and walking tour taking in the well-preserved Neolithic stone houses
at the Knap of Howar, Holland Farm and the lovingly restored old kirk at St Boniface, as well as wildlife such as
seal colonies and other scenic and cultural attractions.
Walk off a delicious lunch with a guided walk on the North Hill Nature Reserve with the RSPB
Warden to see the sea cliffs with a wide range of sea birds in season and the maritime heathland including Primula
scotica colonies. Round off with afternoon tea and homebakes before being dropped back to the ferry or plane.
