It’s a great experience and David was a great driver/tour guide, it’s amazing all the histories and knowledge, we have the luck to have him. Both distilleries have their own characteristics and for lunch at Loch Lomond was good.

Our guide Andy was awesome- extremely knowledgeable and funny and i learned a lot and we had a great group of people on the tour. However, although i enjoyed the distillery tour at glengoyne, having only two minuscule tastings was quite disappointing and at deanston it was the same 2 minuscule pours in a room that was very cold and uncomfortable. i would have expected a tasting of 4 at each-from past experience.

It was a very good experience! Special shout out to Jim Borland from Rabbies tour, he was very lively..entertained us the whole way and explained to us more about Scotland and its history, sightseeing and heritage. Also the music played on the Benz car was really giving us the feels of Scotland highlands and lowlands! Would recommend him and would love to visit again. :) thanks Jim!

5 star experience with guide Jim Scott to visit 2 distilleries and see the Scottish countryside outside of Edinburgh. Jim regaled us with information about Edinburgh, Scotland, scotch, Scottish music and bits of other trivia. His energy for all things Scottish is boundless. The tour was well organized and the visits to the distilleries were enjoyable. We stopped for lunch at a pub recommended by Jim and I relented to try haggis, which I did not know are made from ground lamb - this almost vegetarian liked them! So glad I took a day out of my week in Edinburgh to join this excursion.

The tour at Glen Goyn distillery was first class. Our tour guide Sinclair did a fantastic job. Great experience overall.

This tour gets you out into the countryside. First stop was at Glengoyne Distillery. The tasting part of it was very educational. The host was very knowledgeable, and I learned a lot about whiskey. Stopped in a little town for lunch, which was quite good. Also stopped by Sterling Castle for pics. The bus driver/tour guide was very knowledgeable.
