Aberdeen City Centre Free Walking Tour

Sure, we all know about the oil and the granite and the weather. But there is more to this city than that. There are stories that you will never have heard. Stories about death, pirates, wizards, infra-red telescopes, and Lord Byron. And more death.

SFT’s flagship history tour takes in the Castlegate, Marischal College, Provost Skene's House, Union Terrace Gardens and St Nicholas Kirk. You will see the highlights of Aberdeen city centre, while you find out about Aberdeen's social history, its quirky inhabitants and how it got to where it is today.

The tour lasts between one and a half to two hours and a half hours and starts at the Mercat Cross in the Castlegate. Tours are funded entirely by donations.
