Overview

Whisky distilleries abound in Scotland and deciding where to go can be tricky, while driving between distilleries takes tastings off the table. That’s not a problem on this intimate small-group tour, as your driver-guide transports you to two specially selected distilleries in a top-of-the-range, 16-seat Mercedes mini-coach. There, learn about the history and production of whisky, before sampling for yourself.

Annelie W, Jun 2025

Two lovely guides with a twinkle in their eyes took us around the countryside to see and experience the whiskey homeland. Visits to distilleries and production of the core of whisky. The barrels. History, Tastings, comfortable drive and laughter. Well worth

Whisky lovers delight

Travelling in a small group is so good. Tom our driver arrived early for pick up, giving us more time for photo stops along the way. We sampled 7 whiskys in total. The cooperage was great, having the cask restoring & making explained. The scenery along the way is stunning. Bonus seeing coo's at Cardhu.
