Scotland has many treasures to offer - amazing castles and historical buildings, beautiful scenery, spectacular wildlife, wonderful restaurants and a lot of them are in Aberdeenshire. I will take you on a private tour to areas that are as stunning as they are interesting and tell you about the attractions and their history and secrets and arrange a great day out for you whether it be to ancient castles, a distillery or to see famous Highland Cows. I also offer tours across Scotland and will assist you in the creation of a wonderful vacation to see our amazing country from coast to coast. I can create a custom tour to suit your own itinerary. I am a fully bonded member of ABTOT (No. 5419) which provides protection for customers' prepayments. I have many years of experience in Tour Guiding, and I look forward to showing you our lovely land, whether that be for a few hours or over multiple day. Malcolm Duckworth.

An amazing day out to see some of the most famous and iconic castles in Scotland, Crathes Castle, Balmoral Castle, Glamis Castle and Dunnottar Castle. Includes door to door pick up/drop off. This is a private tour for your party only. The route and itinerary can be changed to suit your requirements. Balmoral Castle has now extended its opening dates from Oct to Aug. Glamis is open Spring to Winter. If you would like to visit a Whisky distillery instead of a castle, please let us know so can book the tasting tour. Advance booking is always required for a distillery. Most castles grounds are free to access (except for Balmoral and Glamis) but charge for internal tours. All attractions are subject to seasonal opening times. Please contact us for details. Please note at Dunnottar Castle you can see it in its full and amazing glory from near the car park, but to see it, but to go inside, there is a long staircase.
Depending on pick up point and chosen route, below is a suggested itinerary. Door to door pick up/drop off. Crathes Castle - Fascinating 16th Century Castle complete with giant Yew hedges and walled gardens set in magnificent surroundings. Balmoral Castle -This iconic castle has been the Scottish home of the Royal Family since it was purchased for Queen Victoria by Prince Albert in 1852. Please contact us re dates. Lunch at a superb local restaurant. Glamis Castle - This stunning castle has 650 years of history and is famously the birthplace and childhood home of the Queen's Mother. Dunnottar Castle - One of Scotland's and the world's most spectacular castles, Dunnottar is a ruined medieval fortress located upon a rocky headland. The surviving buildings date back as far as the 13 Century. Royal Lochnagar Whisky Distillery Tasting Tour (option instead of a castle). Please contact us if required.
