Flavour and cask - This was our first tour with Highland Experience tours and it was amazing. Very helpful lady’s at the desk and our tour guide Graham was also very kind and friendly. At the distillery we had the flavour and cask tour and it was absolutely fantastic. Would really recommend this tour. Thankyou Graham and Highland experience! See you next time. Greatings from the Netherlands.

A Castle, a Loch, and a Distillery - How much more Scottish can you get?! Had a wonderful time with our very knowledgeable tour guide Josh who had great stories and facts about Scotland. He was very open to further questions and help make the experience as great as it was. Our tour only took up a fraction of the bus which made it very personable. Josh commented that it was not usually like that, so we were lucky. Note that the distillery might not be the best place to buy scotch. Do some research between the in town shops, grocery stores, and duty free to know what you can get and for how much. Overall great way to experience a lot of Scotland in a single day. Would recommend!

Unforgettable - Our 1-day tour of Sterling Castle, Loch Lomond, and Glengoyne Distillery was fabulous, perfect in every way. The driver, Gary, was what made the experience unforgettable. His stories were moving, informative, relevant and expertly delivered. He had a joke for every mile driven, leaving us no choice but to smile throughout the day. I would walk 500 miles to do it again!

Breathtaking trip - Our whole experience was more than amazing. From the moment we started our trip until the last minute we learned many historical facts and saw amazing sceneries. Our guide for the trip - Steven A - I'd say he was what made the trip more fun and exciting. Throughout the journey, he made us feel relaxed, he told us stories regarding Scotland, facts and legends and he had the best playlist! I would definitely do it again at some point (different day trip this time!)
