We meet you in Glasgow and with your first whisky head to Campbeltown stopping at the famous Loch Lomond for photos.  Then time for lunch in the lovely wee town of Inveraray – home to the Clan Campbell, with a good pub and 2 whisky shops. If you have time take a stroll up to Inveraray Castle, a baronial French style.

This afternoon take a tour of Springbank Distillery Overnight in Campbeltown, in a hotel with a large award winning whisky bar.

This morning you sample four drams at Glen Scotia Distillery rich in original features and equipment. Then sail to Islay – famous for its’ peaty whiskies. This afternoon drop into Bowmore Distillery to purchase drams as you wish.  Finally, you check in to your hotel, where you spend the next three nights.

There are many distillery options for touring and dramming over the next two days: Caol Ila, Bunnahabhain, Ardnahoe, Kilchoman, Bruichladdich, Laphroaig, Lagavulin, Ardbeg and Port Ellen. If you add a day to this tour you can also visit Jura Distillery on a wee island on it’s own.  We will need to know in advance which distilleries you wish to tour.

Leaving Islay on the morning ferry, back to the mainland and depending on where we are dropping you later, you may be able to visit Auchentoshan or Glengoyne Distilleries.
