SOLD OUT!
8 days | 7 nights | Whisky | Yoga | Tours | Distilleries | Dining | Pubs
All you have to do is arrive in Edinburgh, Scotland, and we take care of the rest. Your adventure begins with a welcome dram of whisky and group dinner. The next two days are dedicated to guided experiences throughout Edinburgh, as we explore the historic city’s Royal Mile and modern Prince Street, hike to the top of Aruthur’s Seat taking in 360 degree breathtaking views of the city and coastline, and seek out the perfect dram of whisky.
Each morning join in a guided yoga stretch to start the day, and again mindfulness experiences aligning oneself with the moment throughout the city and landscape.
Then, we travel north to the Highlands edging our way up along the coastline touring a castle teetering on the cliff’s edge, and finally resting our heads in the Speyside, the heart of whisky country.
Once in Speyside, we discover where two-thirds of Scotland’s whisky is distilled. We tour the greatest distilleries and discover the unknown. You’ll have the chance to taste whisky dating back to your birth year, visit a cooperage learning the secrets of the whisky barrel, and travel to towns off-the-beaten path you won’t find on any other travel guide.
The days spent in the Speyside are filled with the countryside, the people, the whisky, and the food.
The tail end of the trip is spent in Inverness, looking for Nessy in Lochness and walking through ancient burial grounds that’ll have you reaching for a dram of whisky in no time!
Returning to Edinburgh with a final whisky dinner and celebration, sharing stories of the past days hoping the night will never end.
