I'm a complete convert now!
We had a great visit to Glenkinchie Distillery with Neil and then a food and whisky pairing at the Mercat in Whitecraig. Neil is knowledgable and funny about whisky. He's great company and the whiskies he had chosen for us to try were wonderful. I'm a complete convert now!

They really thanked me for my recommendation.
When my university friend from Finland, Panu, asked me on a trip who I could recommend to help guide him and his golfing friends around Scotland on a golf trip with Whisky, I recommended you. Panu commented that you had made this trip such a pleasure and that they need not have worried at all.…

Private Whisky Tours with a Whisky Ambassador

Whisky has been a passion of mine for many years. Before launching Saltire Executive Travel, I worked as a guide at Glenkinchie Distillery in East Lothian, sharing Scotland’s whisky heritage with visitors from around the world.

Keen to deepen my knowledge, I completed the world’s first accredited whisky training programme and qualified as a Whisky Ambassador in 2016.

One of the things I enjoy most is introducing visitors to Scotland’s whisky regions, distilleries and traditions, helping them gain a deeper understanding of the people, places and stories behind every dram.
