Whisky · SELF-GUIDED TOURS
Every trip has one spare day too few. These 4 self-guided whisky trails earn the slot, priced and timed so you can decide in minutes and get back to the fun part.
Use your phone to solve clues across Dublin’s Liberties, passing St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Guinness Storehouse, Teeling Distillery, and the Irish Museum of Modern Art. This self-guided game takes about one to two hours, works offline, and lets you start, pause, and resume whenever you like. No physical guide is provided.
This self-guided Questo game leads you from Cherry Street through Toronto’s Distillery District and on to Saulter Street Brewery. Expect 15 clue stops, local galleries, cafés, breweries, sake, chocolate, and cider references. There is no guide or tasting included, but one ticket can be shared by several people, making this a low-cost private outing for a small group.
“Awesome experience; however, the responses were two restrictive. One answer was double pumps, yet the number 2 and not two was the only acceptable response. Also, it would have been nice if the game ended closer to where it began and not down a potentially dark alley way if you played closer to dusk.”
Follow a GPS audio tour from Jim Beam to Four Roses, with stops or drive-bys at Maker’s Mark, Woodford Reserve, Bardstown, Heaven Hill, and Kentucky Cooperage. Hear bourbon makers Bill Samuels, Chris Morris, and Brent Elliot explain the craft. Bring your own car, and budget extra time and fees for distillery visits and tastings.
Use a mobile pass to visit four Maryland distilleries over 30 days. Sample whiskey, gin, brandy, vodka, amaro, liqueurs, absinthe, and cocktails at Baltimore Spirits Company, McClintock, Old Line Spirits, and Tenth Ward in Frederick. Plan your own route carefully, since the stops are spread out and are not a walkable harbor crawl.
“We were very happy with the place and the whole experience would recommend them to friends and family”
