Aberfeldy Distillery Tour

The royal guide was surely very good for those who speak English fluently. But our visit was supposed to be translated into French. However, the translation consisted of a simple sheet briefly describing the manufacturing process. In short, by the end, those who spoke English knew much more than others! So, the French, do not trust the term translation in French! And I chose this distillery rather than another since the information in French is practically nonexistent, making the visit very long!

Definitely recommend the Whiskey Distillery tour! Fascinating history of Dewar's and whiskey heritage. Our guide Roy was funny, interesting and a total delight! There's an optional whiskey tasting at the end, and it was delicious.

It was nice experience to whiskey distillery plant.

Came today for my dad’s birthday and the experience was great! We arrived early so sat in the cafe part, which is a nice environment and reasonably priced. The tour started with a short film, followed by a look around the museum and then onto the guided tour. We had John who was great! He was friendly and knowledgeable, can’t thank him enough! The experience lasted about an hour and the tasting was great! I had the highball which was delicious! Overall a great experience that I would definitely recommend!

We have long been Dewar's drinkers and looked forward to this tour and ee were not disappointed. Tom was our guide and he walked us through the entire distillery process and we learned so much. After the tour we had a tasting of the Aberfeldy single malt and the Dewar's blend. Very interesting! So glad we did this!

Very, friendly, informative staff.I had no idea of the skill that goes into making the Whiskey.Worth every penny and a great day out for family celebrations.I loved the experience.Thank you so much!

An absolute delight due to the Guide: Craig. He lifted the routine facts into his own engaging stage show which endorsed the quality of the product and its every ingredient and stage of production. Finished with his own story behind each of the whisky tasters. Top value for money and do not miss this essential part of what Aberfeldy and Scotland is all about Thank you Craig

Excellent tour, great guide and good value

This was a wonderful tour and tasting experience. We do not often do distillery tours these days as we've done so many we feel like we have a pretty good understanding of the experience, but as it was our first distillery in Scotland, we thought it would be interesting to see how it differs from distilleries in other countries, and I'm very glad we decided to do so as it was one of the most informative and entertaining distillery tours we have done. There is a bit of a self-guided museum portion that was really interesting and I loved learning about the history of the marketing over the years. Our tour guide was really knowledgeable and friendly and we enjoyed it very much. The tour was also pretty accessible for me as someone with some mobility issues (I can walk no problem, but have trouble standing for long periods, but there were places I could rest along the way). The price of the tour was reasonable for the length and the amount of tastings we received, so it was a good value. And it was slightly longer than we had expected, but we never got bored as it was a very informative and fun atmosphere. There were only four of us total on our tour, but it would have been fine with more people as well.

We did a Rabbie’s tour in Scotland, and I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this company based on this experience. The drivers were super nice — genuinely lovely people — but the overall trip just wasn’t what I was expecting. I went in thinking it would be more focused on whisky tasting and distillery experience, but instead we visited two small towns, some rapids, and only one distillery. The towns were charming in their own way, but nothing particularly memorable (and I love Scotland, so I wanted to love every stop… but they were a bit “meh” for me 😅). The highlight was definitely Dewar’s Distillery 🥃 — that part was great. Really good tour, enjoyable tasting, and I am actually a fan of their whisky. If I remember correctly (after a fair bit of whisky research along the way 😂), it’s been owned by Bacardi since the 1990s, which does make it feel a bit more commercial. But to be fair, most Scotch whisky today is owned by larger companies rather than small family producers. So would I recommend it? Yes… but with expectations set correctly. If you really want that “step back in time” whisky experience, I’d personally suggest Glenturret — the oldest distillery in Scotland 🏴. That one feels a bit more authentic and historic. Scotland is still incredible — just choose your whisky tour wisely 😉
