Three Day Whisky voyage

Day One
From Edinburgh we will head north over the Forth Bridge, through Fife, past Perth and into the Highlands. This land of mountain and forest is home to some sublime whiskies, and we will stop at the Blair Athol distillery for a tour and tasting. Then we will head north to Blair Castle for a visit, before crossing the bleak Grampian Mountains to Dalwhinnie where we will visit the highest distillery in Scotland. The tour then winds down through the broad valley of Strathspey in the shadow of the high Cairngorm Mountains to Aviemore, where we finish the day with a walk in the ancient Caledonian Pine Forest

Overnight - Aviemore

Day Two
This day is spent exploring the distilleries and countryside of Speyside, the spiritual home of whisky, where every signpost reads a familiar name. From Aviemore we head northeast through the pleasant farmland to Glenlivet distillery for a tour; then it is on to Dufftown, the malt capital of the world, and where we will visit Glenfiddich distillery and the nearby ruin of Balvenie Castle. After lunch we will have a short walk down to the River Spey. Then we cross the river and wind our way to Cardhu and their famous distillery, the heart of Johnny Walker. Then it is back along the ‘Back Road’ to Grantown-upon-Spey for a dram before returning to Aviemore.

Overnight - Aviemore

Day Three
From Aviemore we head north to Inverness, stopping at Culloden, site of the last battle on British soil, and a chance to blow the cobwebs away. From Inverness, we turn southwards to Loch Ness and historic Urquhart Castle. This is our chance to do some Nessie spotting. After lunch in Fort Augustus we will take you for a walk in the mountains, before continuing south to Edinburgh, and a special whisky tasting, or ghost tour.
