Amazing day out , great if u love rum! - Amazing day out at the Appleton Distillery! Great cocktail to start the tour off, u can have as many as you want! Great to learn how they use to make the rum to current times. Using a donkey back in the day to now all machinery. Get to sample 3 different runs, see the ingredients used to make each one! Shop at enc of tour many interesting things to purchase, can be expensive in there though!

Enjoyable and fun tour! - Welcome drinks and restaurant access kept us preoccupied before the tour. The tour itself was short and sweet but very informative. The journey to the estate is very long…but the rum tasting and the restaurant food was certainly worth it!

Great tour, great tour guide. - What is there not to like about this tour. Free rum cocktail(s) as you wait for your guide. We were shown around by Peter, he had a great sense of humour and was very informative, he's happy to answer any questions and more than happy to share a joke. There was a really good rum tasting at the end. The tour was not too long and the facilities are very clean and neatly laid out. Another shout out to Peter, you're in for a treat if he shows you around.

How to make the tour and guests experience more memorable. - I enjoyed all parts of the tour, especially the learning process. One suggestion I would make is that they provide some form of token/ souvenir at the end of the tour, which would show some form of gratitude to us the guest, if it’s even a small bottle of the signature brand because to spend whatever amount of money to attend but yet all you received is a cup of cane juice and tasting the variety of rum is just absurd . And frankly the cost for the product is way more expensive than in the supermarket. They can probably take a look at that. Why is it that we are visiting the factory but has to spend that high cost for purchasing and brewing our own rum? when I could use the total amount for that to purchase two 8yrs old in the supermarket.
