A comprehensive whisky tour

Departing Edinburgh, our Ultimate Whisky tour begins with a journey north to Dewar's Aberfeldy Distillery for our first whisky themed stop of the day. Dewar's world-renowned crafted Highland Single Malt Aberfeldy whisky has been produced at Aberfeldy Distillery since 1898. We spend 2 hours here for their Whisky and Chocolate tasting tour; comprising of a full guided tour of the distillery, warehouse and interactive heritage exhibition, and a tasting of Aberfeldy's 12-year-old single malt whisky (optional extra).

After a Dewar's Aberfeldy Distillery tour, we continue to the village of Aberfeldy for lunch. Spend time here exploring its streets, enjoy the scenery with plenty of time to grab a bite to eat before our whisky tour continues to Loch Lubnaig, and then to Glenturret Distillery.

Located on the Turret River, just outside of Crieff, Glenturret Distillery is Scotland's oldest working distillery and still handcrafts its whisky using the last remaining hand-operated mash tun in Scotland. Here, we enjoy a tour and tasting (optional extra).

Our final stop of the day is a short photo break at Doune Castle (famous for its appearances in Outlander, Game of Thrones and Outlaw King) before we return to Edinburgh where our Ultimate Whisky tour ends.
