Review of Rabbie's 9-hour Cairngorms and Tomatin whisky tour from Inverness, with mountain views, Loch Morlich, Carrbridge, and lunch in Aviemore.
“We took three Rabbies tours while in Scotland. All were great and this one the best. Rabbies offers excellent guides, well maintained buses and small group sizes for not much more than the big bus tours. The Cairngorms National Park and Whisky Tour was our favorite as the time spent outside the bus was excellent: short bus ride, get outside to see something, short bus ride and again you are outside seeing Scotland. Great active day for a bus trip.”

Review of a 9-hour Inverness tour covering Loch Ness, Urquhart Castle, whisky, Culloden, Clava Cairns, and Beauly for $80.

Review of Clan Tours’ Northern Whisky Distilleries trip from Inverness, with Highland scenery, Dunrobin Castle, tastings, and practical booking advice.
“The tour was good for learning and seeing lots of the country side at your convenience. The guide knows the area very well and can make adjustments as needed to suit your wants (vs the constraints of a tour bus with 40+ people). It is however a lot of driving and a long day, and due to the nature of the area it is difficult to see everything in a day. Discuss with the guide in detail ahead of booking if possible to see if this tour is right for you. I think if you truly only want to do just whisky tours/tastings to make that a bit more clear…”
Pick a glen, a city or a distillery.
