What We Do
Hidden Aberdeen Tours is Aberdeen's premier walking tour company, founded in 2011, offering walks on various historical themes including the Blitz, Medieval Aberdeen, Lost Cinemas etc. We aim to present the city's local history in an entertaining manner suitable for both resident and visitor.
We also offer indoor storytelling sessions on the darker aspects of the city's history set in suitably atmospheric venues. Working with Grampian Association of Storytellers, we present fact and folklore and celebrate NE Scotland's oral traditions, by presenting in Doric, our local Scots dialect.

Private Bookings
If your group would like a private tour, please get in touch - we offer most of our walks for groups from 8 people up to 40. We have a special rate for small groups of 3-7 people which you can find in the Private Bookings tab.
Interested in just a general tour of local history? We have a special route just for private groups beginning at Aberdeen's Maritime Museum and ending at the Castlegate near the local hostelries, so you can enjoy fine food and drink afterwards.
