Overview

We offer a private tour to the heart of whisky country. Visit any Whisky Distilleries you want (we can normally visit 2/3 depending on opening times/length of tasting tour) and an example is in the Tour Details itinerary. All subject to availability and all require advance booking.

In each distillery you will learn the secrets of how Scotland's most famous drink is crafted and then have the opportunity to sample the beautiful offerings.

We can recommend which distilleries to visit if required, but wherever we take you, you know you can sit back and relax and let us do the driving.

Some of the most popular are Macallan, Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, Aberlour, Glenfarclas, Ballindalloch and Glenallachie.

We will book the internal guided tasting/tours (not included in cost and invoice you separately for the tasting/tour via PayPal).

There is also an option to include a Castle tour/visit.

Please contact us for details.

Activity itinerary

The Macallan Distillery
  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket not included
These are examples of distilleries we can visit and are the most popular. We can visit the very popular Macallan Distillery and Visitor Experience at the heart of The Macallan Estate in Speyside. The building alone will amaze you and you will get an insight into the process, production, people and passion that makes the single malt whisky so special. All guests can choose which distilleries they wish to visit.
The GlenAllachie Distillery
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
A relatively smaller distillery but the visitor centre and the whisky are award winning and highly revered. Not to be missed if you like a "dram". Tours and or tastings available.
The Mash Tun Hotel
  • 1h
This is a fine example of a restaurant/bar we may stop at for a traditional Scottish lunch.
Glenfiddich Distillery
  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket not included
One of the best known and loved distilleries, Glenfiddich holds a special place in the hearts of malt lovers. For nearly 140 years they have been perfecting the art of making whisky. The fascinating tour takes you behind the scenes and includes a tasting of their many fine offerings.
Dunnottar Castle
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Instead of distillery you may wish to visit a castle. Dunnottar Castle is one of the most impressive ruined castles in Britain as is its location impregnably placed on a massive plinth of rock overlooking the sea. North East Scotland has many amazing castles and this in an example of one we may visit on your day out. Most castles in Aberdeenshire are free to see, but will charge for a private internal tour.
Aberdeen (Pass by)
Above is an example itinerary but you can choose your own distilleries (all subject to availability).
