Wonderful day

Great drive through the countryside with a fantastic guide. All stops were fantastic and rich with history.
Not worth it.
Tory_G, Aug 2023
It was very expensive for a ride to the distilleries. This wasn't really much of a tour, our guide did not provide any specifics, there were no chargers in the car for a 3 hour ride and all day tour, no waters, he rushed us even going to the bathroom when we stopped. He was nice, and answered questions as I asked them if he could but you're much better off arranging your own entries to the distilleries and just hiring an uber driver.
Going to distilleries in...

Going to distilleries in a hurry. We could not enjoy for the price we paid. Our last distillery private tour was totally better.
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Thanks for the review. The itinerary was sent out beforehand and your group were very happy with it and thanked me for including one of the group's favourite distilleries. No questions on timings. The timings were not rushed or too tight for the group to have a perfect day out in Speyside. I asked the driver what the issue was and he mentioned that one of the group wanted to stay a bit longer in the shops. This is fine, but staying over the time you agreed at each distillery has knock on effects for the later whisky experiences and the driver made you all aware of this. Hope to welcome you all back to Scotland for another tour.
Glenfarclas, Aberlour, & Macallan
Charles_B, Dec 2019
The Glenfarclas distillery was fantastic, a really good one to visit to get a complete tour. The Aberlour tasting was very average, but since this company has a large conglomerate of whiskys, I was able to purchase "Longmorn" and others. The pilgrimage to "The Macallan" distillery was a let down. The facility was impersonally impressive and the two tastings were below average. I should have asked to take the money paid for Macallan tour and spend it on one of the better Scotches at their bar. Our driver was capable and well mannered. The length of this tour started at 6:15am and ended at 8pm.
An Interesting Day at Highland Distillaries
DCTraveler1945, Sep 2019
Euen picked us up at 6:30 AM, and we enjoyed his conversation and that of the only other passenger for the nearly 3 hour trip to the Highlands. All three distillaries were interesting, and it was a interesting to see the different environments. All in all, a fun and very full day.
Great Knowledgable Trip
Brian L, Jul 2019
Had a great trip from Edinburgh through the Highlands to go on tours at Aberlour, Glenfarclas, and The Glenlivet. Euan was a great driver and great to talk whiskies with. We even made an unofficial stop at Dalwhinnie to take pictures at the highest elevation distillery in Scotland. Definitely a worthwhile trip.
Awesome Trip to Speyside
Ryan P, May 2019
Had a great time with Euan on the whisky tour! Knowledgeable and friendly! We went to Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, and Macallan. Well worth the day trip.
