Reviews: The Scotch Whisky Experience Guided Whisky Tour - An Introduction to Whisky
Guest User2026-01-11
The Scotch Whisky Experience in Edinburgh is well worth a visit. For £40, you’re guided through a series of immersive rooms that explain the history of Scotch whisky and the process behind how it’s made, from production to maturation. The experience is informative without being overwhelming and is presented in an engaging, easy-to-follow way. The highlight comes at the end with a guided tasting of several different whiskies, which adds a hands-on element to everything you’ve just learned. Overall, it felt like good value for the price, and I’d happily do it again or recommend it to anyone visiting Edinburgh.
Reviews: 1-day tour to Loch Ness + Glen Coe + Scottish Highlands from Edinburgh, UK

The tour guide and driver were both very nice. My English isn't great, but the guide kept explaining the route at 0.5x speed. The scenery in Scotland was breathtaking. It felt unreal. A must-see!
Reviews: 1-day tour to Loch Ness + Glen Coe + Scottish Highlands from Edinburgh, UK - small group or large group options

It was the New Year's Eve report group, business consultants May and Angel took the trouble to answer my questions and arrange the itinerary for me. Thank you very much. In fact, the one-day trip to the Scottish Highlands is indeed too tight. If there is enough time, the three-day tour experience will definitely be better. Because the journey to and from the car for nearly 12 hours a day was really hard, and I was motion sickness in the first half and almost vomited out. But the tour guide is also very good. I think she is really good at driving a woman all day and constantly talking. The attitude is also good, warm and thoughtful, and all questions are answered in time, because the itinerary does not include the boat ticket to Loch Ness, we later bought the ferry ticket from her, In fact, the cruise ship is very boring. The road trip is mainly the scenery along the way. We are also very lucky. We actually encountered a sunny day in the Scottish Highlands in winter, and the visibility is very high. The sunny day and the snow-capped mountain configuration are really very rare. The tour guide is boasting that we are very lucky all the way. It's such a good weather.

Amazing tour with the Hairy Coo tour company. The guide was just amazing! Never have I ever met such knowledgeable person who can so utterly captivate with their storytelling abilities. I came to Scotland with very vague understanding of the Scottish history, especially considering the Jacobite history. After this tour I've finally gathered a lot of valuable information. Also this tour is considered the longest of day tours among others, so be prepared for it. However, you travel on a big comfortable bus and can easily observe the High Lands en route with a lot of stops for sightseeing in different locations. I absolutely recommend this tour and tour company.
Reviews: The Chocolatarium Chocolate Tour Experience in Edinburgh
Guest User2025-12-01
Our tour guide, Kristie was amazing. Really engaging and knew her stuff about the chocolate. We opted for some of the Christmas moulds to make our own chocolate but you could also still use the usual mould if you wanted to. There was the option to make either milk or dark chocolate, no white option I'm afraid. However, there was plenty of opportunity to try some white chocolate, and lots more chocolate after. Book ahead as it gets booked up quickly. For the cost it is great value for money with opportunities to buy your favourites in the shop after.
