We had a really good time with Pete as our tour guide he kept the trip exciting. Our Bed and Breakfast place was exceptional Allan and Sylva were really great hosts. The weather was really good for September it only rained part of one day.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour - if you love whisky you must do this! The whole package was excellent from the accommodation to the lovely Keith our driver. We learnt so much about Scotland and it's history too!
If I could give this tour more stars i would. Our tour guide was Stevie and he was amazing. We were a group of 14 plus the guide that spent 3 days on this tour. We all had a great time! All of the distilleries were amazing. Stevie was very funny and patient with all of us. I highly recommend this tour. This tour company Rabbi's is fantastic.
Great guide, great whiskey options, and a great learning experience. Only thing I suggest doing is check the hotel options in Grantown-on-Spey and work with Rabbie's to find a good option that has good reviews. In the group I was in, we were split over a few hotels and not all were great. Absolutely would do a tour with Rabbie's again and in fact maybe even repeat this specific one in the future.
This was an extremely well run tour with a fabulous, knowledgeable and full of dry humor, Keith the tour guide. It didn't hurt that we had unseasonably fantastic weather for sure but this would have been a great tour in any weather. The Scottish history lessons during the drive between distilleries was also a nice touch along with some scottish tunes mixed in here and there. I can't wait to come back for the Islay tour!!
The best tour ever!!! Keith the guide was great and funny! A lot of distilleries a lot of whisky and a lot of fun!!!
