  Had the extreme pleasure of Gavin leading the Tour yesterday. Arrived in plenty of time for pickup in an immaculately presented BMW X7. We headed northbound on the A9 to Clynelish Distillery passing some of the most wonderful scenery in Northern Scotland. Arrived at the Distillery in plenty time for the tour where Gavin made the introductions and left us to partake in the Experience. After Clyneish we headed to Dornoch Castle Hotel for lunch where there was a huge choice from the menu but we all chose the home made pizzas. They come highly recommended. After lunch we then headed to Glen Ord distillery for some further education. Again Gavin was spot on with his recommendations, even to the extent that I treated myself to a self-bottled Singleton Of Ord. Throughout the tour Gavin displayed excellent knowledge, not only of the distilleries but of all the local areas and historical facts. He obviously has a passion for delivering top quality service, and a wee tip, if he offers you a wee square of white chocolate, take it as there is better to follow!!! I have no problem throughly recommending Gavin and Inverness Whisky Tours and would give it a 10/10 rating. Give him a shout, you won't be disappointed.

  I had such a great time with Inverness Whisky Tours! From the moment I contacted Gavin, his expertise was evident. He's incredibly knowledgeable about the region, whisky, and distilleries, and he masterfully tailored a two-day private tour that maximized my time and allowed me to visit all the distilleries I truly wanted to see. Communication with him was super simple and fast. Thanks, Gavin! Moving on to the actual tour, Peter is a super nice person and an excellent tour guide. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with him, and he accommodated all my needs to ensure I had a fantastic experience. He didn't just take me to places; he engaged me with great stories and information about the region, the industry, and the distilleries. Additionally, being born and raised in the Highlands, his knowledge is unbelievable and truly adds authenticity to the experience. Thanks to Gavin, Peter, and everyone at Inverness Whisky Tours for such an amazing experience!

  Amazing experience. We used email to work out our tour itinerary. Gordon was very responsive and easy to deal with as we hammered out the details. Jason our tour guide was even more spectacular! He surprised us with an amazing bagpipe serenade, got us to 4 distilleries, one shortbread factory, and returned us 6-7 hours later. Gordon and Jason worked hard to give us a truly great memorable day.

  Gavin was a wonderful host for our full day tour. He has a welcoming, friendly, easy going demeanor. He shared his knowledge and appreciation of the many different whiskies we sampled and in doing so has changed my appreciation of scotch whisky. He included local historical sights on our tour and made many helpful suggestions about what else we should see while we were in the area. We highly recommend this tour.

• Great day learning Scotch.

  Awesome experience. Liam was great. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. We never felt rushed and learned much about the history and making of Scotch. Will do it again on next visit.

  In a word, our experience was "EXCELLENT"! Liam was our tour director, guide, driver and expert in everything about Scotch whisky. Knowledgeable, friendly, funny, safe and accommodating, Liam took us through some amazing countryside often along quiet local roads to distilleries that offered a wide range of whisky choices. He helped us understand what might be expected from each tasting. I highly recommend booking a tour through Inverness Whisky Tours. Thank you Liam!!!

  I can’t say enough good things about our day with Gavin/ Inverness Whiskey Tours, it exceeded all our expectations. I planned this day for my husband, as he is the Scotch whiskey drinker in our family, but this tour had plenty of things for me as well. First, Gavin is from the Highlands so we learned about whiskey, the community and the beautiful lands. We took the tour at Glenmorangie and it was informative & fun, finishing with a whiskey tasting. Next up was a tasting at Balblair Distillery, one of the oldest in Scotland. Their18 year old whiskey is a must sample! Along our route, Gavin made time for scenic stops/photos and more whiskey tasting. He picked several whiskeys that I enjoyed and had some big peaty/smokey whiskeys that my husband loved. Gavin recommended lunch options for us and we choose an outdoors, pub lunch in Dornoch, and then on to Dunrobin Castle for the tour and falconry exhibition, both were wonderful. On our way back to Inverness we sampled a few more whiskeys and made a quick stop at Black Isle Brewing for a tasting of their beers. (Excellent!). In addition to all this we saw Highland cows, Shetland ponies, seals, birds and the most fabulous vistas. I highly recommend this tour!

  Amazing day (2 actually!). Gavin was a gracious knowledgeable local host and guide. He set up a bespoke itinerary prior to the visit. Everything was perfect and as advertised. Highly recommended. Did a second day of sightseeing with one of his colleagues as well—similarly great!
