Aberdeen Whisky Distillery and Castle Tour

We offer a private tour to the heart of whisky country. Visit any Whisky Distilleries you want, and an example itinerary is in the Tour Details. All are subject to availability and most distilleries require advance booking for a Guided Tasting Tour, but not for just a tasting.
On a Distillery Tasting Tour you will learn the secrets of how Scotland's most famous drink is crafted and then you 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 distilleries on Speyside are Macallan, Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, Aberlour, Glenfarclas, Ballindalloch, Balvenie and GlenAllachie.

We will book the internal guided tasting tours for you and invoice you separately via PayPal.

We will also book you in to a great local restaurant for lunch.

Option to include a Castle or Cooperage Tour.
