Tests start from Aros Post Office, Salen Road, Aros PA72 6JL on the A849 between Craignure and Tobermory. A small lay‑by opposite fits two cars.
The island arm of NCN Route 78 (Caledonia Way) follows the A849—bike hoops at Aros Hall café 100 m south.
Tests start outside the police station at Breadalbane Street, Tobermory PA75 6PA. There are no learner bays; you begin on a slope with tourists photographing colourful harbour houses behind you. ADIs suggest a pre‑test crawl of the Tobermory harbourfront to warm the clutch leg.
Parallel parking outside the Co‑op is common. Independent driving often tackles the single‑track A848 to Salen then loops the Glen More hairpins—passing‑place etiquette is crucial. Emergency stops are usually set on the straight by Aros Park where sight‑lines are excellent.
Digital pass upload means the licence arrives in 10‑14 days. Pass Plus sessions typically head to Craignure, cross on the ferry, then use the A85 and M8 on the mainland to master faster roads.
DriveBot watches Mull, Oban and Fort William every hour, booking you the first spare island slot.
