Overview

Enjoy a day of whisky and waterfalls on a small-group day trip from Edinburgh, led by a friendly local guide! After a stop in Falkirk to see the Kelpies, travel through the Scottish Highlands, passing alongside Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. Stop at the Famous Grouse whisky distillery for lunch and a tour (both payable at own expense) and, after sampling a wee dram of whisky, continue to the Hermitage, a natural beauty spot that’s home to the impressive Black Linn Falls.

Beautiful fall day in Perthshire

Published on Oct, 2024

Really great tour, the fall colors were out in all their glory. Our tour guy Rich was great and even took is to see highland coos. The distillery was a bit too high-end and fancy in my opinion but still interesting. Highly recommend!

Great day trip

Published on Oct, 2024

This is a really fun day trip. We viewed the Kelpies, had a tour and tasting in a stunning distillery, ate lunch in a charming foodie village, and finished up with a wooded stroll to a scenic waterfall. All of this was experienced with our very knowledgeable and entertaining guide, Graeme, who regaled us with Scottish history and lore and played his excellent playlist. I highly recommend it. An easy, enjoyable day.

Fabulous day trip. Great sites and stunning scenery. The commentary from Graeme covered a range of Scottish history which put things in place. I would highly recommend this trip for ages above 18 as there was a whisky tour and tasting. A well paced trip we didn't feel rushed.
