Moray is famous for its whiskey, and tours around its many distilleries – including Glenlivet and Glenfiddich – are a big draw.

However, there's plenty more to do and see in Moray. At Auld Mill Alpacas in Elgin (pictured), visitors learn about alpacas before leading the curious creatures on a walk and finishing their day with coffee and cake by the fire. More than 70 Tripadvisor reviewers have given it a maximum five-star rating, calling it "magical" and "a unique experience".
