Highlights
Explore Royal Deeside, the stretch of Aberdeenshire the Royal Family have loved for generations, on a relaxed private day tour from Aberdeen. Your local driver takes you out along the River Dee to grand castles such as Crathes and Balmoral, through pretty villages like Ballater and Banchory, and up towards the edge of the Cairngorms, with plenty of stops for photos and fresh air. You travel in a comfortable, unmarked minibus or car, just your own group, so the day runs at your pace. Castle interiors and gardens are there to enjoy if you wish, paid on the day, and your driver is happy to shape the route around what you most want to see.

About Aberdeen
Aberdeen is a granite city on Scotland's north-east coast, with a historic university, a fishing and oil port, beaches and castles in the countryside.
Aberdeen stands between the rivers Dee and Don on the North Sea, a city built of grey granite that glints with mica in the sun. Old Aberdeen, with its cobbled High Street, the crown tower of King's College chapel and St Machar's Cathedral, preserves a medieval university town, while Marischal College, a vast neo-Gothic granite frontage, looks over Broad Street. Footdee, a small fishing community of low cottages, sits by the harbour mouth.
Top-ranked sights in Aberdeen: Slains Castle, Crathes Castle, Drum Castle, Garden & Estate.
