If you are touring from Glasgow or Edinburgh you will need to stay at least one night in Speyside and there are plenty of whisky themed places to stay, such as the Mash Tun in Aberlour and the Craigellachie Hotel in the village of the same name. Feel free to ask me for more information. The trip lets you see where the whisky is produced and how it’s made four unique itineraries include. You can also visit the Speyside Cooperage to see first hand how the casks are made. The Macallan The maker of one of the world’s best-selling and most popular scotches, the single malt distillery takes you on a journey to Speyside through The Macallan Distillery Experience, a 360-degree virtual reality excursion. Take the MacAllan tour at their new state of the art facility or book a connoisseurs tour at Balvenie-but don't leave it til the last minute because they only take 16 people per day and are usually fully booked months in advance! or you could just pop in to Glenlivet for their free tour or perhaps you just want a quick tasting at Glenfiddich, Cardhu or Aberlour. Speyside has the highest concentration of malt whisky distilleries on the planet - over 50 of them at the last count! This, and the fact that some of the most iconic whisky brands produce their golden elixir in this region, are good enough reason to hit the Speyside Whisky Trail. I can also recommend and book hotels and restaurants, as well as suggest appropriate pubs along the route for multi-day whisky tours. The itinerary permutations are endless so the best thing to do is to contact me to discuss your options and I can then draw up a tailor made schedule based on your preferences and my local knowledge. A tour of the island distilleries for example, could take several days but you could cover a visit to one or two Highland and/or Lowland distilleries on a day trip from Edinburgh or Glasgow. This Whisky Trifecta tour - Macallan, Glenfiddich and Glenlivet.

With me as your personal driver and guide, you can relax, take in the scenery, learn a little a bit about Scotch, where it's made and the people who make and enjoy a few 'goldies' as you go! Depending on how much time you have, you could incorporate more than one area into a tour itinerary or you may choose to concentrate on one. Whiskywheels tours specialise in the wonderful whisky that Scotland has to offer. Book a whisky tour of Scotland with me and you can relax while I take care of the logistics, recommend you whisky hotels and pubs and, most importantly, drive you from distillery to distillery, allowing you to enjoy a dram or three! A Scotch Whisky Tour allows you to explore some of Scotland's most beautiful scenery whilst visiting the distilleries that produce your favourite malts. That's where I can help, by recommending a tour that will encompass a wide variety of different whisky styles, regions (there are six Highland, Lowland, Island, Islay, Speyside and Campbeltown), logistics (some are easier to get to than others) and ages (some distilleries have literally just opened and some are centuries old). With so many whisky distilleries to choose from, 130 and counting, it is hard to know where to start.
