"Here it goes, down into my belly.” - Ron Burgundy.
You will sample a selection whisk(e)y’s, with a history lesson or two thrown in for good measure. You’ll cover whiskies by region, from Irish, Scottish, Japanese to Australian, and Bourbon vs Scotch (vs Tennessee Whisky). Our knowledgeable hosts cater for all, from the experienced gentleman who loves nothing more than the end scene of Boston Legal, watching Spader and Shatner wax lyrical over a Scotch and a hoagie, or the newbie who just wants to soak up everything about the experience. The whisk(e)y tasting sessions are all housed in a private bar or reserved space, to give you the intimate VIP experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to book a package, or can I just book one activity?
Totally up to you. Our packages are designed to take the hassle out of planning, but if there’s just one epic activity you’ve got your eye on, we can make it happen. No dramas.
Can you help us arrange accommodation?
Absolutely. We’ve got access to a range of buck-friendly stays – from hotels to party apartments – and we can bundle it into your package. Just let us know what kind of vibe you’re after and we’ll sort it.
How do we get between the activities?
We can help you arrange transfers. Whether it’s walking distance, quick Ubers, or a private party bus, we’ll work with you to ensure the group gets from A to B without a hitch.
I don’t have final numbers yet – can I still book?
Yep – lock it in with an estimate and confirm the final headcount closer to the date. We’ll give you a heads-up when we need those final numbers.
Is someone from The Bucks Co there on the day?
Not in person, but we’re always on call. Your Bucks Co event planner will be available behind the scenes to make sure everything runs smoothly. If anything pops up, just give us a buzz.
Can we split the payments between the group?
Yep – and it’s super easy. Everyone pays their own share directly through our platform, so no one's left chasing money or covering for mates who go MIA in the group chat.
Is there a deadline to book?
There’s no hard deadline, but the earlier you book, the better your options. Weekends can fill fast – especially during peak season – so we recommend locking it in at least 8–10 weeks ahead.
Why would I book with The Bucks Co?
Because planning a legendary bucks shouldn’t be a full-time job. We take care of the logistics so you can focus on what matters – beers, banter, and sending the groom off in style. Whether it’s action-packed, laid-back, or a bit of both, we’ll build a weekend that hits the mark. No group chat chaos, no stress – just good times and zero hassle.
