To be honest when I booked this tour it was for my husband. I knew he’d enjoy it but I do not drink and so I thought I was taking one for the team. But wow, what a cool trip. On the small bus driving through the countryside was such an awesome experience, especially with our knowledgeable and funny driver. Eric had us giggling from the start. His knowledge of all things Scottish was phenomenal, but Eric was like an onion, an interesting onion, there were many layers!
The tour took us to two distilleries, both were interesting and we both enjoyed learning about the process. While the formula is the same the two distilleries were so different! I wasn’t going to do the second tour of the distillery but they had me at manual process! Also the second one Glenturret had cats and I love cats as much as hubby loves whiskey!
We also got to visit some beautiful small towns, historic bridges and saw the kelpies! This wasn’t a boozy tour so I also loved that. It was interesting, informative and entertaining. Though we also spent a good chunk of money at the distilleries buying gifts. This was definitely one of the highlights of our six week holiday!

We really enjoyed our driver Eric. Such an interesting guy who was super knowledgeable about everything! We were on time to our stops, which were also awesome! Definitely recommend this tour. I don’t drink but my husband loves whiskey. But I still enjoyed the tour for the road trip, views and history and experience at each stop.

I took a tour with Eric, who was a driver and a guide on this trip. He is one of the best tourist guides that I ever traveled with. The tour itself was a fabulous experience as well. I warmly recommend it to everyone.

A lot of fun. Distilleries were a good time. The views were excellent. The tour guide was a real good guy. My only advisory is that some of the back roads taken to ensure the best scenery are a little windy so if you are prone to motion sickness you may want to pass on this opportunity.

Seemed to be an all new presentation. A few minor hick-ups , but really well done. The collection of spirts that they just purchased was the most amazing collection I have ever seen.

I would recommend this trip to any first time visitor to Scotland.
Our guide, GARY, was very knowledable about the countryside as well as sharing a lot on information about Scottish culture.
We needed extra time at the stops due to disabilities and he was very accomadating.

!. 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.
