Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

My cousins were up from England and l was looking for a Distillery experience for them, looking through all the local ones, some were charging ridiculous prices so we were pleased to see that Glen Grant charged just £7.50 for a 40 minute tour plus tasting, which suited them as non Whisky drinkers that wanted to know the process. Kirsty was our Guide who led us around with an obvious passion for her job, answering any questions we had . She gave clear information and allowed us to go at a steady pace to take it all in. The place was spotless , the gardens full of Autumn colour. All in all it was a fantastic experience for them . l would highly recommend this friendly local tour to people that want to know how our Malts are made. Keep up the good work Glen Grant ...and thank you.

We were looking for a local distillery to visit and picked this one because of a combination of location, the garden and price. Maybe not as well known as some other brands, but the organisation of the tour and the tour itself were excellent. Shirley was our guide and made the tour really interesting and her delivery meant we could hear every word. We enjoyed the whisky tasting and the stories that went with it. We then wondered up to visit the garden which is well worth while and a most unusual addition to a distillery tour! Highly recommended.

This distillery is not operating at the moment as under alot of renovation which is well advertised ! But it is worth every penny for a tour , Mariella and Anna were super friendly and very kind and are a credit to your distillery.
We will return to see the garden and hear more brilliant stories. .
Thank you for a great day celery husbands birthday!

The distillery wasn’t operational, so the tour was without the noise, heat, activity and especially smells that make a distillery tour of interest. I was only told the distillery wasn’t operational upon arrival for the tour, despite numerous and tedious messages prior preparing for the tour.
They close down for 6-8 weeks annually so this was not a surprise event. It is simply a misrepresentation of the tour and as such is a very pale experience.
The reservation system is also tedious, poorly set up and they add a percentage charge on the tour price just for reservations on their own website.
Both are misrepresentations

To visit the gardens is free and worth the walk.
What beautiful manicured gardens and walks … spending a nice time in this green surrounding is extremely peaceful and refreshing.
We also visited the distillery.
Free for under 18.
You get to taste 2 samples of whisky at the end of the visit.
Very well explained visit. We knew nothing and are now experts 😁.

We’ve been to a quite a few distilleries in Scotland and wanted to try something different. Glen Grant’s big selling point I think is it’s lovely gardens, which were particularly pretty in Autumn. The tour itself was good as well, and our tour guide was very knowledgeable. I appreciated the straightforward answers about the production process. A great experience, overall.

Good price at £7.50 for the hour whisky tour with two tasting and access to the nice garden. Weather wasn't that sunny but sure it would be beautiful in a good day. A small group for the tour. The shop was great and sales are on now so got a few bargains. We also have discount for the new whisky that isn't on market yet. Very pleased on the day at Glen Grant!

We had a lovely visit and the staff there were terrific. It certainly is, as others have previously described, pretty.
However, we had the need to write and follow up something after our visit and so used the online contact form. Only to find that this goes to head office of Campari in the USA who do nothing and have no personal touch (all they did was say email another address - they don't' deal with anything outside the US). That really has blighted the experience of Glen Grant.
There are so many wonderful, small and family or small company run distilleries in the area we will be checking out the About sections and ensuring our money goes to support them going forward and avoid wherever possible these large soulless and un customer service friendly corporations

We did not take the tour, but simply popped in for a minute to the shop. Beautiful grounds. Seemed clean with plenty of business. Helpful sales staff and some interesting items for sale. Enjoyed the whisky that we bought.

The gardens are absolutely delightful, even in April, can’t imagine how gorgeous they will be in the Summer. Went into the visitor centre on the way back and the staff were so lovely; professional and friendly The whisky is not bad either!!😄.
Having visited quite a few distilleries in the Spey area I would say this is now my favourite.
