We met this fellow...
...on our first Single Malt Society trip, the Scotland Jaunt in 2017. Our custom itinerary struck the perfect balance of history, culture, and geography. Featuring stops at castles, cathedrals, museums, monuments, historical sites, scenic wonders, and — of course — distilleries, we explored all that Scotland has to offer.
The Society organized a second successful Scotland excursion in 2023, and we'll be heading to Ireland in 2025. We're already planning a club visit to the Netherlands and Belgium, slated for 2026.
The task of arranging the details of the Society's journeys is placed in the capable hands of Go Ahead Tours, a Boston-based company that conducts tours on all seven continents. They carefully consider the details of our itinerary to ensure the best possible travel experience.
Once our trips are underway, a dedicated Tour Director accompanies us every step of the way to make sure all goes to plan. A private motor coach and professional driver assures us of arriving safely and in comfort.

"The Scotland Jaunt arranged by Kirk and Carol and Go Ahead Tours was an amazing trip. It was so well organized that we were able to relax and enjoy Scotland without any worries or concerns. There was ample time to go and adventure on your own. The guide and driver from Go Ahead were equally awesome. This was by far one of my most favorite vacations."

"Though we weren’t members of the Scotch Club, my husband and I went on the 2017 tour and had a wonderful time. We were warmly welcomed by the other tour members, some of whom also did not know each other prior to the trip. We found the tour to be well organized. The tour leader was very knowledgeable and witty. It was a great trip with lovely people!"

"This trip far exceeded my expectations...it was the perfect mix of sightseeing, castles, museums, and distilleries. Our Tour Director was excellent, very accommodating to individual and group needs. Go Ahead Tours did a great job in handling all of the arrangements. I would highly recommend this trip, and am looking forward to a return visit."

"Kirk and Carol did a wonderful job of planning the Scotland trip itinerary. My wife and I were welcomed and quickly felt at home with the members of the Scotch Club, and we have now spent time with several of them socially since our return from the tour. We enjoyed being a part of the club’s experience of Scotland."

"Between the planning by Kirk and Carol and the execution by Go Ahead Tours, the journey was the perfect mix of castles, cathedrals, and distilleries. With 17 travelers and a full-sized coach, there was plenty of room to stretch out and mingle with the rest of the tour group. It was an amazing trip, and we look forward to details of the upcoming adventure."

" I feel people use the phrase “once-in-a-lifetime” a little too often, but our trip was really very special. From the knowledgeable guides to the accommodations, our trip was carefully thought out and perfectly balanced. We even managed to sneak in some attractions not on the itinerary! The only problem is now I want to go back to Scotland!"
