Tour Scotland’s oldest distillery Experience, and see how single malt whiskey is produced. Test your senses at the stylish nosing and tasting bar, and see for yourself if you have what it takes to become a ‘whiskey nose’!

What's the plan:

We depart Edinburgh in the morning and make our way to the Kelpies, a gigantic monument to horse-powered heritage across Scotland.

We then enter the Highlands and head to the whisky distillery to discover how whisky is made and taste a well-earned dram.

We head to the Hermitage in the heart of Perthshire and explore the woodland and epic waterfalls on the River Braan before heading to the quaint village of Dunkeld. We return to Edinburgh in the early evening hours , passing the jaw-dropping Forth Bridge on the way.

Starting 1 April 2023: Instead of stopping at the Wallace Monument, we stop at the Kelpies.

    Good Whiskey Tour

    It was a good tour but I got motion sickness from the curvey roads. I would recommend the tour if you have not ever seen a whiskey distillery....
