A guide for the journey

Our service connects the stops by road and adds whisky and Highland context along the way. That lets everyone in your party focus on the visits, instead of taking turns to drive or arranging separate journeys between them.

Your distillery tickets are a separate part of the day. They determine the experience you receive inside Glenmorangie and Dalmore, so check each reservation before you travel.

Tell us which date you're considering and whether you've booked either distillery.

Your planned route

How does the Glenmorangie and Dalmore route work?

The published route leaves Inverness across the Kessock Bridge, visits Glenmorangie, stops for lunch in Tain or Alness and continues to Dalmore before returning. It combines whisky visits with views of the northern Highlands. The travel plan needs to fit your distillery reservations.

North from Inverness
The journey begins with the drive over the Kessock Bridge and views towards the Black Isle. This northbound route gives the day its own setting, with coastal landscapes between the whisky stops.

You'll travel with your own party. Share your pickup requirements when you enquire, so we can discuss where the journey should begin.
Glenmorangie Distillery
Glenmorangie is the first named distillery on the itinerary, offering a point of contrast with Dalmore's richer whisky style. If its delicate Highland malts are high on your list, the route gives you transport for the visit and onward travel.

Book the distillery experience you want separately. Tell us its start time and length, so we can discuss how it fits with lunch and your Dalmore reservation.
Lunch in Tain or Alness
The route includes time for lunch in Tain or Alness. It creates a break between the distillery visits and gives your party a chance to sit down before the next stop.

Meals and drinks are extra. Mention any lunch preference in your enquiry, alongside the times you've reserved at the distilleries.
The Dalmore Distillery
Dalmore is the second named whisky stop on this route, a choice for guests interested in richer, sherry-cask whisky styles. Its Cromarty Firth setting adds a coastal backdrop to a day focused on these two Highland producers.

A tour booking with us does not provide admission to Dalmore. You must arrange the distillery experience separately and share the confirmed reservation details. Discuss the day with us before committing to ticket times, so the two visits can be considered together.
Back to Inverness
The published route returns to Inverness with further Highland and firth views along the drive. Tell us if you have onward travel or an evening commitment, so the intended return can be discussed before booking.

From enquiry to your day

How do you book the Northern Highland Drams Tour?

Send an enquiry with your date, passenger count and pickup requirements, then discuss the route with our team. Distillery tours and tastings are your responsibility to pre-book. Confirm the transport tour through our agreed payment arrangements once the intended day has been discussed.

Enquire about your date. Choose the Northern Highland whisky route and provide your contact details, passenger count and preferred vehicle. Enter your preferred travel date.
Discuss availability and pickup. Tell us which distillery experiences you want, or share any tickets you've already bought.
Coordinate your ticket times. Pre-book Glenmorangie and Dalmore separately, checking that the reservations fit the travel plan discussed with us.
Confirm the tour. A booking is confirmed after full payment or an agreed deposit is received, with confirmation sent by email.
Join your whisky day. Travel with your guide for the planned visits, lunch stop and return to Inverness.

Keep the transport booking and distillery reservations together when planning. Neither replaces the other.

Choose your whisky day

Is this the right whisky route for your party?

Choose Northern Highland Drams if you want Glenmorangie and Dalmore in a private day with coastal Highland scenery. It suits adult whisky visitors who already have these producers in mind. The route gives your party shared transport between the two separately booked experiences.

For Tomatin and Dalwhinnie in a mountain setting, the Cairngorm Malt Trail tour heads south from Inverness. If your priorities are in Speyside, the Glenfiddich and Macallan tour follows that different pairing.

Our private whisky tours from Inverness let you compare the named stops before choosing your day.

Practical details

What should you confirm before committing to the day?

Confirm the tour price and pickup arrangements with us, and check suitable reservations at both distilleries. Budget separately for admission, tastings and lunch. Share your preferred date and any booked experience times, so the day can be discussed around the visits you want.

If Dalmore is your main reason for travelling, make its reservation part of the planning conversation early. Don't assume a transport enquiry provides access to either distillery.

Tell us about mobility needs or a guest who won't be tasting. We'll discuss the transport requirements with you, and you should check the conditions of each distillery experience separately.
