Tourist attraction in Aberdeen

“Great place for spectacular cliffs and in spring for thousands of nesting birds. Nature Centre near Colliestone is worth visiting, especially with children”

“We went to J.W. for a spontaneous dinner and really loved the food and chefs. We got some great sushi made freshly in front of us for a very reasonable price. Even better for having no corkage and allowing us to grab a bottle of wine around the corner. Looking forward to come back!”

“Had the lovely Neave do my hair in a half up, half down style for a wedding today and it is absolutely perfect! Thank you so much! If I am ever Inverurie way in the future I will most certainly be booking back in with Neave!”

“Had an amazing time exploring the park. The habitats are very beautiful and makes it less stressful for the animals. I would definitely give yourself about two hours alone to walk around the park and more time if you plan on doing any activities. Definitely worth the drive.”

“This was the first of many activities we booked before arriving to stay in Aviemore and what a great place to start off our holiday. Fun activities for kids and grown ups alike, I personally went out of my comfort zone and did the high ropes, having never done anything like that before it really tested me but so glad I did it, my daughter even did the skydive and showed great bravery”

“We found it easily, and parking was good. The walled garden was absolutely beautiful and had its own interesting story. The castle was fun and very interesting. You can walk through at your own pace, with very knowledgeable guides in each section of the castle. We really enjoyed the history of the place and the people that owned it and lived there. You can take pictures, and there is a cafe and nice facilities. There is spiral staircases, if that’s an issue for you.”

“Beautiful place! Perfect for weekend walking”

“Stonehaven Harbour – A Beautiful Blend of History, Scenery, and Serenity Stonehaven Harbour is one of the most picturesque coastal spots I’ve visited in Scotland. Nestled in the charming town of Stonehaven, this historic harbour offers an incredible mix of natural beauty and local character. Whether you’re visiting for a quiet walk, some fresh seafood, or a bit of coastal photography, there’s something here for everyone. The harbour itself is beautifully maintained, with colourful boats gently bobbing on the water and a lovely stone pier that gives you wide views of the North Sea. On a clear day, the reflections on the water are magical — perfect for drone footage or simply soaking in the atmosphere. It’s peaceful and rarely overcrowded, making it a great escape from busier tourist spots. Just a short walk away is the iconic Dunnottar Castle perched dramatically on the cliffs — a must-see for anyone visiting the area. Around the harbour, you’ll find a few local pubs and cafes where you can enjoy traditional Scottish dishes or a warm drink with a view. The people here are friendly, and the town itself feels authentic and welcoming. Whether you’re a local or a first-time visitor, Stonehaven Harbour leaves a lasting impression.”

“Duthie Park Winter Gardens is such a unique and beautiful spot for a wedding! Lush greenery, vibrant blooms, and the most gorgeous natural light—it’s like stepping into a little tropical paradise in the heart of Aberdeen. The atmosphere is so relaxed and romantic, making it the perfect backdrop for capturing love stories. Easily one of my favourite spots to photograph, and it never disappoints!”

“Great little garden to wander around. Lots of benches dedicated to memories. Very nice space and well kept, very pleasant today even though not in bloom.”

“Fantasticly Huge, vast sand dunes all leading to a wonderfully beautiful long sandy beach, add in sunshine and you have a venue well worth a visit”

“Excellent mince and tatties (mashed potatoes) with skirlie (oatmeal stuffing) and perfectly cooked vegetables.”

“Absolutely fantastic experience every time! The food is always fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of flavour. The staff are incredibly friendly, attentive, and always make you feel welcome. The restaurant itself is beautiful and has such a warm atmosphere. Highly recommended!”

“Excellent campsite, really friendly hosts, grounds and facilities kept in great condition- would recommend”

“Loved this café! The staff were super friendly, the service was great, and the atmosphere was so cozy. They also have a lovely outdoor seating area, which made the experience even better.”

“A wonderful place for meetings and concerts. Pleasant energy, decent acoustics, amazing stained glass windows”

“Amazing authentic and tasty food served by the long standing family owned restaurant. Superb”

“Absolutely fantastic Turkish restaurant on Belmont Street! The food was outstanding — fresh, full of flavour, and clearly made with care. The kebabs were perfectly cooked, the bread was warm and soft, and the meze selection was delicious. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. Service was quick without feeling rushed, and the atmosphere was warm and authentic. Great portion sizes and excellent value for money too. Highly recommend to anyone in Aberdeen looking for amazing Turkish food. Will definitely be back!”

“Great tour! Highly recommend! We booked thru the operator's website not the cruise line. Cost was 1/3 of what cruise line was charging for a similar tour! Invergordon Bus Tour operator office location was right outside port gate. Duncan (head of operations) checked us in & got us squared away with details about the day. We met our lovely tour guide Allie & our motorcoach driver, Hamish. The motorcoach is very nice. (It doesn't have bathroom facilities though so use the toilets at the port before.) We stopped briefly in a small town of Beauly to stretch our legs & a bathroom break on our way to Loch Ness. Before venturing onto Inverness & Cawdor Castle we stopped for a picture at Loch Ness (no Nessie sightings) & a stop to see some highland "coos" . Inverness was pretty (for what we were able to see in the short time we were there.) Cawdor Castle has beautiful gardens & the history is very interesting too. A+ job to Hamish 's driving into the very narrow estate gate that was originally made for horse drawn carriages! Allie is quite knowledgeable about the local area lore and history of Scotland. She even sang us a few Scottish folk songs. Hamish is a funny character & great driver. We arrived back to the port terminal in plenty of time to look around the little port town & get back onboard our ship. Definitely would book again with them!”

“Lovely little restaurant. The staff were lovely and the food was very nice. The steak was especially yummy. Highly recommend”

“Amazing, knowledgeable and patient staff who are never short on offering recommendations. Each time I visit, I'm never disappointed with my purchases. You feel like you're really listened to, never rushed and whether it be red or white, even whisky, there's always great levels of stock and encouragement to try something new.”

“A high end B&B in its appearance from outside and in its high ceiling, traditionally decorated lounge inside, the best one I've ever stayed so far. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful to direct me to the local amenities. We stayed in a family room for a family of three. The room was clean and tidy with all the necessory facilities. The breakfast was a special treat and tailor-made to our taste. It was a great stay for my family. I really recommend it.”

“Visiting from the states & a local recommended Cafe 1. The monkfish/muscle soup was outstanding & I was thinking about the meal & the overall experience even days later. Highly recommend the pork belly as well. So glad we stopped in for the fantastic service, food and atmosphere. Thank you!!”

“Great place for fresh fish ,and other sea foods, Including crabs and lobsters .I always find staff very helpful and friendly and will advise on type of seafood. Very fresh products. They also visit various farmers markets in and around Aberdeen”

“Fabulous service from Kyle some very special reduction some individual items well worth a visit thank you ronnie mathieson I will be back”

“Great service from Orsi! Stopped in for lunch and was really impressed by Orsi’s friendly and attentive service. She was welcoming, quick with orders, and made sure everything was just right. It’s rare to find someone so upbeat and professional during a busy lunch rush. Orsi definitely made the visit more enjoyable, I’ll be coming back for sure!”

“Excellent fare. Good choice of beer, my choice and wine selection very good. Staff attentive and eager to please. Must be, as this is our 3rd time of visiting.”

“A nice park with a lil farm (££) and a playground. Plenty of benches and greenery for a picnic. Perfect for a sunny weather.”
