It flew by and we wanted more. We loved the Silver Tour area. You could tell it was properly organised. At rush hour the traffic stretches the route out quite a bit.

Una experiencia redonda. Que incluya membresía de un año de la Sociedad de Apreciación del Whisky Escocés con el Tour Gold te ahorra el estrés de llegada. Conocer un poco de Hoteles en el camino fue un plus. Totalmente recomendado.
Ximena Y.
Muy contentos con la elección. Pasar por Scotch valió el tour entero. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable. El punto de encuentro estaba bien indicado y fácil de ubicar. Ya lo recomendé a dos amigos que viajan el mes que viene.

Buena relación precio calidad
Contentos con la experiencia, aunque no todo fue perfecto. Que incluya copa de degustación de cristal de recuerdo (solo para adultos y concesiones) te ahorra el estrés de llegada. Pagamos bastante menos que otras opciones y la experiencia fue igual de buena. Nos dejaron en Puntual sin ninguna vuelta de más. Nos cambiaron el vehículo asignado sin avisar.

Repetiría sin dudar
Superó lo que esperábamos. El recorrido está bien pensado, no se repite ni da vueltas de más. Se notaba que el guía es de la zona, contaba cosas de primera mano. Lo único: el grupo era un poco más grande de lo que esperábamos. Si volvemos a Edimburgo, lo repetimos.

Melhor do que esperava
Saímos encantados. Comparei preços antes de reservar e essa era a melhor opção. Muito bom que incluía uma taça de cristal para degustação de souvenir (somente para adultos e com desconto).
