What visitors say

“Although the tour has less visualisation compared to others I would describe the experience as more intimate. We were welcomed by very friendly staff. Overall the whiskey experience is worth it. Would recommend too”

AK · 7 months ago

“We had a lovely time at Glen Garioch. The tour is really interesting and well organised and the tasting is an enjoyable experience (even if you’re not a whisky drinker!).”

Emma Panayiotou · 5 months ago

“We had a great tour it was very informative and interesting. The tasting was special and I chose to have one of my whiskey tasters as a hot toddy, in mid January this was welcome. I thoroughly recommend this tour.”

Jayne Reeves · 5 months ago

“An amazing experience in a distillery that respects Scotland's traditions and keep a character in these difficult times. Iona is not only a tour guide, but she reflects the missing spirit of the Highlands hospitality. We really felt ecstatic from her passion, even if it was her last day, and grateful from walking in a living history place. All the staff are beyond and above with true smile and a welcoming warmth. Thank you is not enough, for the tasteful moments that shaped our lives.. Glen Garioch, is deserve to show the Whiskey road to the younger generations and I would describe it as the temple of tradition and Art making. I wish all the best to the staff, keep your identity alive and definitely I'll visit you again and again...”

Billy Diamand · 3 months ago

“Just as expected. A very well presented tour of one of the highlands best malt whisky distilleries. Eddie our guide and very amenable host was full of interesting insights and knowledge of the product from grain to tasting. I would fully recommend this to anyone interested in Scotch whisky or to those who just have an enquiring mind.”
