Planning Your Trip from Aberdeen

With Speyside on your doorstep, you’d be a miss not to partake in a whisky tour and sample uisge beatha, the ‘water of life’ here in Scotland. Or maybe you’re drawing to imposing castles clinging precariously to a jagged cliff’s edge? Whatever your plan, we’ve got a great range of day trips waiting for you in Aberdeen.

Travel Responsibly from Aberdeen

There’s a wealth of beautiful locations to tour alongside Aberdeen that we want to protect for future generations to enjoy. Through our responsible travel initiative, we take ownership of our actions by donating, volunteering and travelling by mini-coaches to help preserve the land for many generations to come.

Don’t Miss Out

  • You didn’t come to roam Scotland for the modern world, so make sure you explore Old Aberdeen’s winding burgh, a trove of time-worn buildings and a character of its own.
  • William Wallace fans might be interested in visiting St Machar’s Cathedral to pay their respects to his left quarter… which is currently buried in the walls of the cathedral.
