Aberdeenshire has a rich history with many interesting historic villages and places of interest to visit
Let us take you on a sightseeing tour through the quaint fishing villages of Gardenstown, Crovie and Pennan and on to the industrial fishing harbours of Fraserburgh and Peterhead where a large proportion of Scotland’s fish is landed. Experience visits to many hidden beaches and breath-taking cliff top walks.
The impressive Georgian estate house of Duff House owned by Historic Scotland is located within our local community and is home to an art collection maintained by the National Gallery for Scotland.
St John’s Church and Kirkyard perched on the coastal headland near the village of Gardenstown, dates back to the 11th century. Only the shell of the former kirk exists but a visit is worthwhile even its just to enjoy the view.
The ruin of Findlater Castle west of Sandend where the remains of the castle cling to the cliff top.
The 16th Century Slains Castle near Cruden Bay was the inspiration for Bram Stokers’ Dracula. Records of the author’s visit to the area also state that he stayed at the 276 year old Garden Arms Hotel in Gardenstown whilst he completed his famous work and also based a part of his lesser known novel ‘The Mystery of the Sea’ on the village itself.
If castles and the impressive manicured gardens of stately homes take your interest, Aberdeenshire won’t disappoint. From the royal summer retreat of Balmoral set in beautiful Deeside to the well-kept walled garden at Pitmedden or Crathes Castle and Gardens, to the photogenic Dunnottar Castle, the options are abundant. Let us take you on a planned tour with breaks at our favourite stops for tea and cakes, or restaurants serving the best Scottish produce that the area has to offer.
Great service, accidentally booked my taxi for the wrong date and were still able to send a taxi at very short notice for an airport run. Well priced, clean cars and very friendly service. Will be using this firm for all my airport runs in the future
Fantastic service, we pre booked to travel to a local restaurant as we are a larger party we required three taxis, they all arrived on time, drivers were all lovely, and when we called back they were very prompt in coming back for us, I would highly recommend. x
Excellent service but if you can do prebook as there are very busy.
