Scotland and Ireland are renowned for being two of the world's most picturesque countries. William Grant is your host for this exclusive, behind the scenes experience of distilleries that goes back five generations.

The Westbury Dublin, voted "#1 Hotel in Ireland" by Conde? Nast Traveler Reader's Choice in 2018, for three nights is where this adventure begins. The Westbury's central location in the heart of Dublin offers unrivaled access to the pedestrianized social hub of Grafton Street, as well as the historic open spaces of Dublin's Trinity College and St Stephen's Green. William Grant's hospitality team has arranged for your group to tour both the legendary Tullamore Dew Distillery and the iconic Guinness Brewery.

Onwards to Scotland, where the William Grant team has arranged for three days of distillery tours and tastings, golf, and all meals planned for you. To stay on the grounds in Dufftown at the Balvenie and Glenfiddich distilleries is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience and only offered to VIPs in the spirits industry.

The restored Torrin house reflects the brands and still uses the five traditional crafts. With five en-suite bedrooms, this home was designed to accommodate VIP clients with a bar, dining room, lounge, kitchen, and billiards room.

Take a behind the scenes look at the world's most awarded distilleries of the Balvenie and Glenfiddich, with a one-on-one private tour with proprietors of some of the finest single malts in the world. Your tour will include lunch on site, dip the dog experience and gift, finishing with dinner at The Family House.

The next morning transfer to St Andrews where a tee time on the New Course has been arranged. For those who are non-golfers, spa appointments will be prepared before arriving to The Principal Edinburgh by private transfer. At its heart are five listed Georgian townhouses, built in 1775 as homes for Edinburgh's most prosperous citizens.

Edinburgh is a city best discovered on foot so you'll be guided on your final day through the city and Edinburgh castle. Dinner each night in some of Edinburgh's most respected restaurants will make this truly a trip of a lifetime!
