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.
