- Relax535514679310 contributionsInteresting and funVery fun and informative. Our Guide Kirsty was lovely. She was knowledgeable and kept a friendly upbeat atmosphere. I am from Aberdeen and it was interesting finding out about my own city. We went on a Saturday Evening which meant we also got a frightful sight when passing some of the local pubs so I would recommend a weekday tour to miss all that! A fun wee treat for me and my friend and we really enjoyed it and would recommend!Written 3 November 2024
- Paradise650135917970 contributionsGreat insight into the granite cityHad a great time. Thank you Kirsty. Very knowledgeable. I think everyone walked away from the experience having a greater appreciation on the history of Aberdeen. It is often overlooked and not recorded due to the oil and gas industry.Written 3 November 2024

Our guide Bronwyn was very pleasant and courteous and appreciated and understood our Australian sense of humour. Bronwyn maintained her information presentation with a very happy demeanour. We were provided with an insight into the past history of Aberdeen. We benefited from this walking tour about Aberdeen. Bronwyn's knowledge of the street art was fascinating and interesting. Really enjoyed the walking tour as you learn about the real history of the area. Cecilia and Rob
