Very well, organized boutique tour with knowledgeable tour guides who entertain you with stories and humor during the ride across the country … thank you Alistair!

!. Andy T. was a fantastic tour guide- very kind, friendly, knowledgable, and flexible. I so enjoyed his professionalism, entertaining stories, and genuine interest in making it a great day filled with learning about Scotland and whiskey! He did your company proud!! The tour was a great chance to get into the Highlands, learn about Scotch, and have a pleasant lunch on our own in a beautiful town. The tour was small (16 ) with a comfortable bus, and lots of great commentary from Andy T. So enjoyed the whole experience!

Eric made this trip! He is extremely knowledgeable on Scottish history, (he may be the most interesting man in Scotland). The tour was fantastic and passed our expectations. Both distilleries were similar, but had some distinct differences that made them unique. Definitely enjoyed taking the sprinter van rather than a coach bus - made the tour more intimate.

Stewart was amazing and made this experience for myself and my partner! He had great knowledge of the history both architecturally and culturally within Scotland as well as some brilliant recommendations. The tour itself was very informative, interactive and good fun. Would highly recommend this experience to anybody!

Absolutely fabulous experience, great value for money. staff were very informative and very welcoming. the whisky was amazing.

This probably isn’t what you’re looking for if you really want to try a lot of whisky’s. The tour is about 10hrs, but what you’re really paying for is a scenic drive through Scotland, given you only visit two distilleries in that time, and the cost of the tastings isn’t included in the tour price. Our group spent most of the time snoozing on the bus! The whisky we tasted was nice, and so were the hosts but overall it didn’t feel like value for money.

Fantastic day trip, with a safe driver and guide Mark. He tells stories there’s great and shows some great parts of Skottland Before this trip, we really didn’t like whiskey, but now 😀 If you want a great and funny day trip, ask for Mark😀

Sren_N

Super safe and kind driver. This is a great day trip, with a proper program. 10 out of 10!!! We didn’t like whiskey before, but now we love it 😀

Peter was our tour guide who I'm glad to say came back from retirement to lead this motley group. His insightful comments on the regions and places we drove through with Scotland's historical significance helped to appreciate where we were and what we were seeing. He went out of the way to show that to us and that made the tour that much more meaningful. Both the Dewars and Glenturret facilities, pre-reserved provided tour by the local staffs (with only the need to pay for the tours at the distillery about 15 GBP) and Scotch Whiskey tastings were excellent. The Dewars museum was well put together and the Glenturret that was recently acquired by Lalique was full of plush and glitz. Recommend the 3 Lemons for lunch in Aberfeldy.

Had two wonderful tours/tastings at Dewar’s Aberfeldy and The Glenturret Distilleries. Wish we could have done one more
