Después de almorzar en Elgin viajará de nuevo a Spey hasta Aberlour para visitar la destilería que allí se encuentra y si el tiempo lo permite se hará una parada en Speyside Cooperage, en los alrededores de Craigellachie. Desde aquí se regresará a Grantown, en Spey.
Día 3 Le adentrará en las maravillosas Montañas de Cairngorm camino de vuelta a Edimburgo. Por la mañana podrá explorar Glenlivet, que no sólo es una destilería, sino también un hermoso valle por el que poder pasear rodeado de un paisaje natural.

This was an exceptional tour and I loved every minute of it. The most enjoyable part was when Mac took us to an off-itinerary tiny bar that held over 500 different whisky types and played the bagpipes for us.
Posted by Sarah Kristmann on 12/11/2012
Everyting!! The tour guide was funny, knowledgable and interesting. The sites were well thought out with plenty of wonerful photo opps and interesting stops. All the distilleries were wonderful.
Posted by Shona Williams on 07/11/2012
Just wanted to say a quick thanks to Mac for introducing me to Amy MacDonald. Just finished listening to her new CD "Music in a Beautiful Light" and was blown away by her lyrics. Music is just another way that Rabbies guides make memories long after the tour is over.
Posted by Susan Goodfellow on 14/10/2012
Mack was the best guide - fantastic knowledge and really took pleasure in finding places off the beaten track. The Benromach Distillery was the best of the tours - very informative

I'm not particularly a whiskey fan, so went on this tour mainly to see a part of Scotland I hadn't seen. Since it was August, the heather was in full bloom, and made everything look great, even on the rainy days. Many thanks to Mac - for the side explorations to the waterfall and the mill, for the photo stops, for the well-told stories with puns, and for the music. My two days on this tour were a lovely ending to the week and I recommend it to everyone, whether they like whiskey or not!
Posted by Susan Goodfellow on 03/09/2012
I liked it that we got to know very much of the Scottish history, Barney did a good job on telling it in a very interesting way. I also liked the many stops at different locations, so that we got to see a lot more than just distilleries.
Posted by Joris Wolters on 08/08/2012
Barney was great. Really enjoyed the distillerys and the rest stops along the way where they was something going on ie great photo op, or whisky shop, or monument, etc. really helped break up the trip so we didn't feel like we were on the coach for 5 hours of driving. The cupar stop was great too.
Posted by Chris Sherwood on 28/05/2012
The whole experience was fantastic and Eric was the same! Full of Knowledge and approachable. A likeable guy who even sang for us on tour. Top notch.
Posted by Shane Fielding on 11/10/2011
The entire tour was FABULOUS! It's hard to choose a favorite - we loved the distilleries, the visit to the Walker's cookie factory, and the scenic drive through the mountains.
Posted by Jennifer Voss on 09/10/2011
I already posted one review of my 3 day Speyside Whisky tour, but couldn't help posting one more about our driver/guide, Eric. He was simply too good for words to adequately describe him. Handsome, Personable, Knowledgeable, Laid-Back, Funny as hell and Right on Point. Some guides blather on when you want them to be quiet, or are silent when you want to know something. Eric was the perfect combination. If I ever get back to Edinburgh, I will only go on a tour if Eric is guiding it!!

Indulged a lifelong dream of going Whisky Tasting in Scotland recently. The tour was a dream and I was lucky enough to be in a small group of 7 like-minded individuals. I learned almost more than my brain could soak up, but I took notes and now have the most wonderful memories of this trip. Should anybody decide on this particular trip, be aware of 2 things... 1. The tasting fees are not included in the package price. 2. You MUST go with Eric - his personality, kindness, knowledge and experience helped make this trip so unforgettable. Should you want to read details of my particular trip...go to seeingmesquared.blogspot.com - look for he posts, "Driven to Drink", "Pieces to the Same Puzzle" and "Fun Facts and Funnies about Scotland"...all this was learned on my tour. Simply fantastic!!

Great tour! Mac is a godblessed guide, driver, helper etc. 3 wonderful days! Thanks from Maria, Mads, Jeppe, Marianne and Lars
