Let us start by saying the whisky is optional, drink alternatives are available and the cost of the whisky is not included in the £14. We do this to make the event as inclusive as possible for drinker, non drinker, whisky lovers and whisky sceptics alike. The whisky or drink alternatives can be added on on the day. We meet just off the iconic Royal Mile inside a café/bar called Hot Toddy. We have the entire downstairs area reserved for us, ensuring lots of space for the group. During the course of two hours we will sample four outstanding Single Malt Scotch Whiskies from the four major whisky producing regions of Scotland. We will discus some of the history of Scotland and explore the reasons as to why whisky is now so ingrained as a staple of Scottish culture and we have some great tales from Scotland and the world of whisky to share with you. Other things to note This tour departs promptly and we can not wait for guests who are late. Feel free to turn up at Hot Toddy earlier to enjoy some food or drink before the event starts. People under the age of 18 are not permitted on this tour and exceptions can not be made I'm afraid.

Stand Up Paddle Board Yoga Experience in the Sea. I will meet guests on the beach and provide wetsuits and boards if needed. I will explain how we do it first on the beach, we will get boards organised and sand bags. Then we paddle out to a suitable yoga spot on the sea where I will show you how to anchor up safely when we get there. The paddle out is usually a short distance together, I often play relaxing yoga music and burn incense to begin the mind-body-soul-nature experience. Once we are all set up I teach an hour yoga session floating on the water. It is suitable for complete beginners and intermediate level. People who are new to yoga and new to Paddleboarding will still enjoy the experience. It is a very relaxing, unique, holistic experience. The yoga style is a mixture of hatha and kundalini we do some mediation and relaxation which is a beautiful experience floating on the sea and listening to the sounds of the water and nature around you. I can take some photos for you to remember the experience. Then we paddle back to shore and get changed. It is a great way to meet new friends and water lovers. It will help build your confidence on the paddle board and provide you with an exciting new yoga experience. You are welcome to come with friends.
