Overview
Join us on a delicious stroll through Aberdeen’s city centre, where rich history and local flavours go hand in hand. Discover the city’s maritime roots at the harbour, explore the vibrant Green and merchant quarter, and raise a toast to William Wallace in Union Terrace Gardens.
Along the way, we’ll sample classic Aberdonian treats like butteries, oatcakes with cheese, locally brewed beer, and creamy Mackie’s ice cream. We’ll share stories of women brewsters, historic markets, and Aberdeen’s role in Scotland’s food, brewing, and distilling traditions.
With plenty of tasting stops, hidden corners, and engaging tales, this tour offers a real flavour of Aberdeen — past and present. Bring your appetite and your curiosity!
