Beautiful location, it is clear everybody at Glenfiddich is proud being part of one of the oldest distilleries in Scotland. Still owned by the family of the original founder. Well maintained, informative and interesting. Must do when in Dufftown.

The most amazing thing about this tour was that it was still FREE!!! We first did the tour about 20 years ago and thought it was good then, so coming back all those years later it was great to find that it hadn't changed except for getting better. After a short film we had a good tour of the processing... More

Was it just bad luck, or did we come on an off day? After watching the video we were split into two groups, however, one group would have been one person short in order to balance the numbers. As there was no single person and nobody wanted to split from their own small group there was an imbalance with one... More

The tour is limited to the fermentation process, still room and... More

As Glenfiddich is a household name i was expecting a commercialised distillery but i was so wrong. On arrival the approach road and the carpark were spacious and well laid out. A short walk from the carpark led to the distillery builings which were immaculate in appearance. the gardens were very picturesque and well maintained. As we arrived a little... More

I confess that, like so many others, I grew up thinking of Glenfiddich as being the ubiquitous "vin ordinaire" of single malt whisky - but how wrong I was. William Grant is the only remaining family run distillery, all others having been absorbed into the great global conglomerates, and this is also the only single malt to be diluted to... More

We were recommended this place by locals in the pub near our holiday cottage. We were a little apprehensive because it is obviously a big company and also that the tour is free..it was brilliant! We ate in the restaurant before the tour. Lovely building with roaring fire. We had Cullen skink (local fish soup) and a sandwich. I had... More
