Things To Do in Laggan This Weekend

It was wonderful. Our tour guide and driver was just fantastic. I feel that the person who runs the program should be a little more communicative.

Spent a fabulous day in Speyside visiting 3 distilleries and enjoying the countryside. Highly recommend Whiskywheels. Driver was excellent.

We received a very nice call today and will get most of the refund. There was also an apology that we naturally accepted. End well all well

Would highly recommend. The choice of distilleries were fantastic, with the recommendation of GlenAllachie being a real hidden gem. Euan and Damon were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and reliable. I had a memorable/brilliant few days. So much so, I'm looking to book the Islay tour for next year with friends.

A great experience especially for people like me who don't drink whiskey.Learned a lit .The Best was at Glenturret distillery ,highly recommend. Also,Euan...hope I spelled his name correctly was great.

What a great day!! Billie our driver was knowledgeable and friendly! The tours and tastings were excellent. Highly recommend this tour! Worth the extra money for a private tour!!

Excellent Cruise, all great personal food.... Then professionalism education professionalism and exquisiteness of food and above all abundant

I booked a solo trip via Cool Destinations for Speyside Whisky Tour. Euan was very prompt in responding via Whatsapp during the planning stage of this trip. I wasn't sure how to plan the trip and he inquired what I was most interested in seeing and curated a 3 distillery trip. I visited the Macallan, Cardhu and Glendronach distilleries where I toured the Macallan and Cardhu distilleries and did a tasting at Glendoranch. On the day tour, Euan was promptly there at 8:20 am to pick me up from aberdeen, and we did all the tours. We had a bit of time at the end, and therefore we also did a quick visit to the glennfiddich showroom. Overall, WhiskeyWheels tours is a white glove service and I will certainly book them again if I visit Scotland again. Also I would recommend them to everyone who is looking for a top notch experience.

Our tour guide Damon was exceptional and made us feel welcome and comfortable the entire day. We enjoyed the scenery of the Highlands and meeting the people who make wonderful whisky.

Our guide David was wonderful! All the tours were well put together and informative. Great experience.

I had an amazing tour with Euan's company. Our driver was Billy who was fun, funny, chatty and so informative. We had a couple of tight timelines but Billy made sure we got in to every spot we wanted to get into. The ONLY downside to this was that our itinerary came late and I got a bit nervous. However, because it came in a little late, we were able to request a last minute change. Euan was extremely accommodating. It was fantastic to walk into a place, have our tasting scheduled. Billy did a great job guiding us through the different distilleries, highlighting different whisky. The cost is very reasonable given the expense of renting a car and the time to drive between distilleries. The roads are a bit overwhelming. I will say, having a competent driver was fantastic. The roads can be a bit treacherous. Billy knew where he was going and often shared little trivia facts during the drive. Once you calculate the cost of a car, the fuel, the accommodations, the tastings, the actual cost is very nominal. They cover three tastings per days and anything more is out of pocket. It was unclear at first that Macallan was not included but I understand why. It is very expensive and honestly, I would skip it. There are so many other charming and warm places to visit. WW makes sure to highlight those places. They drop you off for lunch (at your own expense) and both days were delicious! Obviously the locations change depending on your specific tour. The first day, we ate lunch in a beautiful courtyard filled with flowers. The food was superb. I didn't have to scramble to search a menu. It was so relaxing to get dropped off, have a great meal and relax. When I think of everything we were able to experience, I was thrilled with the tour. We were able to go to a final independent distiller who was also able to ship whisky home. We just got back last Tuesday (as in 3 days ago) and our whisky is already here! 10/10 I would recommend this tour. I have recommended this tour to several friends and family members.

Excellent tour with a lot of flexibility and no driving stress. We visited 3 smaller distilleries and in retrospect am glad we went down that route vs visiting a larger one. Our driver Mark was outstanding!!!

The trip arranged by Euan was very good. We could not get the distilleries we wanted (ie Balvenie or Macallan) but the options provided by Euan was a good alternative. Our driver, Stephen, picked us up early at our hotel at 6:45am and started the long drive up. We went to Glenfarclas, Aberlour and Cragganmore distilleries. The Glenfarclas visit was my favourite as the guide shared a lot of information and we get to see the fermentation process in the mash tuns (that was so fun). Sadly Aberlour is upgrading its facility and so we only went for the tasting. As we had a jam-packed itinerary, Stephan was nice enough to keep us on the clock so that we don't end up being late for the subsequent visits. After Aberlour, we were surprised that Euan had reserved a table at Dowan Hotel 57 (Speyside) for lunch and we had a fantastic meal there. As there was a bit of time, we made our way to Glenlivet for tastings and then head to Cragganmore for the distillery tour. It was a comfortable ride back and we reached Edinburgh slightly before 8pm. Overall, we enjoyed the trip and do recommend Whisky Wheels. However, please do note that responses from Euan can be slow. There were regular email exchanges when we were finalising the trip details and full payment was made in March. However, there was nothing from Euan 1-2 weeks before the tour, despite sending emails and follow up chasers. I was concerned that this was a scam, and started reading the review comments. Fortunately, the reviews I read did reduce my anxiety as most of the reviews were good with the comment on communication with Euan. With that, Euan did finally send me the details a few days before the trip, and we did have fun that day.

Planned and ordered a whisky tasting tour with assistance of Whiskywheels. The communication in the planning phase was good and the performance of the tailormade tour to the Speyside district was excellent. A quick summing up among the participants told me that the overall experience of the tour was out of the boundaries in a good way due to the excellent driver and all arrangements taken care of. I strongly recommend Whiskywheels as a competitive organizer of tailormade whisky tours /Anders

Great drive through the countryside with a fantastic guide. All stops were fantastic and rich with history.

Perfect organization and extreme friendliness. We visited all the distilleries and the tasting was perfect. The journey was very comfortable and the company was very useful.
