Glenfiddich Distillery

Dufftown, United Kingdom

Glenfiddich is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky produced by William Grant & Sons in the Scottish burgh of Dufftown in Moray. Glenfiddich means 'valley of the deer' in Scottish Gaelic, which is why the Glenfiddich logo is a stag.

The Glenfiddich Distillery was founded in 1886 by William Grant in Dufftown, Scotland, in the glen of the River Fiddich. The Glenfiddich single malt whisky first ran from the stills on Christmas Day, 1887.

The Glenfiddich Distillery tour was so informative and fun! The guide was really knowledgeable and showed us the on-site bottling area even though it was closed during our Sunday tour. The tour lasted about two hours and culminated in a tasting of four different whisky varieties. Advanced booking is recommended.

Came to Scotland to visit a distillery, we've picked Glenfiddich, and the experience was very interesting for us! Nice people, very passionate and sweet with the group. That was a true pleasure to see all the process and to have a taste on the brand's products!

Despite not being a big Whisky fan I thought the Glenfiddich Distillery was outstanding, so much so that I went twice!! I especially loved the story behind this brand which makes the experience feel personal and engaging. Of course, as one of the larger brands, it can be quite busy with tourists, but i don’t think this had an impact on the experience; although if I went again I would aim for non-peak season. The shop is also a must visit. There are a great variety of products, including for those who don’t necessarily just want to buy a bottle of whisky. I can’t wait to go back - five stars.

Huge setup with cafe, bar, tour and merchandise shopping in additions to whisky. Impressive!

A really nice place to visit. Do one of yours with a tasting at the end. Our guide was warm and funny and obviously very enthusiastic about the place. The lounge behind the shop is how a bar really should be. Totally recommended. The tours need booking in advance but not a shop or whisky lounge visit.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
