Good Whiskey tour, not enough time at Loch Lomond

The Glengoyne whiskey tour was great! We didn't have much time at Loch Lomond to do more than eat lunch and walk really quickly to see the lake. Liked the small tour size. Our guide was excellent! I would have preferred a different distillery for our 2nd stop -- something out of the city. Clydeside is right in the city and easily accessible for another day.

Great tour. Would recommend.

Jeff was excellent. A font of historical knowledge professionally imparted. We learned a lot about the various streets and areas we passed through on our way to visit a couple of distilleries. Some Scottish music to break the journey as well, and over and above Jeff also shared some great tips for a few bars to in the evening all gratefully accepted. A safe pair of hands on the drive too.
