MacLean & Bruce is Scotland’s leading whisky-focused travel company. With author and expert ‘whisky nose’ Charles MacLean at the helm, we guide our guests through Scotland’s distilleries for private whisky tours and tastings. We combine this with luxury travel and accommodation to create the perfect Scottish experience.

Our guests demand the highest standards of service and we rise to that challenge. By drawing on our intimate knowledge of Scotland and our long-held relationships with friends and colleagues, we design a programme of world-class travel and hospitality that is uniquely theirs.

It’s important to us that our guests make the most of their every moment in Scotland. To ensure that happens our trusted chauffeurs, pilots and captains are on hand to transport them swiftly and securely around our beautiful country. That journey might take them from historic castles in the glorious Scottish Highlands and Islands to secluded estates in the tranquil Scottish Borders and quite possible many places in between.

An invitation to Scotland from Charles Maclean

 

Founded by Charles MacLean and Vikki Bruce in 2013, MacLean & Bruce offers guest access to people, places and experiences which are dependent upon personal connections forged over decades.

Charles is one of Scotland’s best-known figures, a leading global whisky expert, prolific author, and accidental film star. For guests visiting our shores to enjoy ‘the water of life’ (whisky), there is no finer guide on the subject. Charles makes introductions and opens doors throughout Scotland and its whisky industry.
