Most Popular★ 5.0

A 90-minute Aberdeen City Centre walking tour mixing street art, granite street history, and the witch-trial tunnels, ending by the Maritime Museum.

“This was a very informative tour of the "new" city. There was a good mix of the modern art scene in Aberdeen and the history of the city from the rise and fall of the granite, fishing, and oil industry. It is a plus that the tour ends outside an outstanding pub. If you are…”

“We had a wonderful guide on this tour. It makes for a very long day, and our group was maxed at 16 - which makes for a tight tour van. The air conditioning in the van worked great at the front - but past about row two, the stale heat was nearly unbearable. Our guide…”
