Good informative tour, with a great guide. Scotch whisky choices were good at the end and you even get to keep your glass. Downside compared to other beverage tours is that it's all on screen, you don't see the barrels in person nor any processing, which would have been a nice touch

Though not a lover of whisky, I found the tour to be very informative, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive!

I have done this tour before when it seemed much better. This seemed a bit rushed this time. It was still a great tour, just felt a little less personal.

The cellar in the image was amazing to see but the drop of whiskey they give you as a taste was shocking

the history by the rolling fairground seats was efficient but a little dated. The movie screen was excellent and the personal taster presentation was very good. Finally the tasting room with flight of whiskies in a relaxed lounge atmosphere was ideal to finish the experience.

I was late attending and didn't have the full experience. However the location is great and it looked like it would have been a great experience.

The "barell ride" was a bit naff and was a bit of a waste of time. The guide was interesting but we only had one small sample throughout which wasn't really what I was expecting.

Very enjoyable and informative, would definitely recommend. Barrel ride followed by a presentation, tasting class and viewing the largest scotch whiskey collection in the world. tour guide was really good, lasts about 45 minutes. Impressive whiskey collection, only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because you only get one very small sample of whiskey, I was expecting to sample a few but as we found out you had to pay for a more expensive package for that.

A lovely tour of the educational side of whisky in Scotland - covering all areas of the country and the unique history of each, with an incredible collection to boot and a lovely tasting session. The tour was particularly odd - the barrel ride was a particular oddity as you take a ride through a tunnel of love style lecture on how whisky is made. Followed by a really nice audio-visual presentation with an accompanying scratch and sniff card which again seemed out of place. All in all I enjoyed the experience I was just baffled at each stage; but ultimately the whisky tasting was great and you get a free glass at the end.
