We took two tours with Whiskey Island and LOVED both. We did the two day Northern Ireland Private Whiskey Tour and three day Ireland’s Ancient East Private Whiskey Tour. We highly recommend both of these tours. We were lucky to have both John and Colm as our guides on these adventures. We got the best of both worlds on these tours enjoying both small and large distilleries along with very knowledgeable guides of Irish history and culture. Whiskey Island tours meticulously planned each trip with 5* accommodations, variety of distillery experiences and other adventures to make the tours a well rounded experience. Northern Ireland included must see stops as Killowen Distillery (Patrick and Brandon were wonderful hosts that make excellent whiskey with an Irish mythology twist.), Giant’s Causeway (Unbelievable site that should not be missed.) and Bushmills Distillery (Owen was a great tour guide making this stop enjoyable). Ancient East included must see stops as Powerscourt Distillery (Rich in history, beautiful setting and great Fercullen Whiskey.), Wicklow mountains are gorgeous, Glendalough Monastic Site, beautiful town of Kilkenny with wonderful food at Petronella, Blackwater Distillery (A very intimate tour with Master distiller John introducing us to their whiskey innovations and Caroline introducing us to Blackwater Gin. Neither should be missed.), Rebel City Distillery in Cork (No whiskey here, but a great stop with a great story to tell.) and of course the can’t miss Midleton Brewery in Cork (A vast variety of whiskey here which you have to try all. Jameson is not the only Irish Whiskey they produce.). Do not hesitate to book with Whiskey Island tours. We will definitely be repeat customers when we visit Ireland again since you will not get more knowledgeable tour guides of the Irish Whiskey scene.
