About Great Scot: Free Walking Tour of Old Aberdeen - Old Town House

TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice winner 2020 and 2021 Scot Free Tours brings you a free walking tour of Old Aberdeen, exploring the hidden places in this historic burgh and telling the stories of some great Scots.

For over five hundred years, Old Aberdeen has been one of the great centres of learning in the North of Scotland. There can be no better place to celebrate Aberdeen's greatest thinkers, scientists, explorers, inventors, writers and gardeners (yes, we do mean gardeners). We'll explore the hidden places in this historic burgh, to tell the stories of some great Scots whose achievements did not get the recognition they deserved.

Scot Free Tours is the top-ranked tour provider in Aberdeen, collecting TripAdvisor Certificates of Excellence in 2018 and 2019 and a Travellers’ Choice Award in 2021, with more than two hundred five-star reviews.

The tour lasts between one and a half to two hours and starts outside the Townhouse on the High Street in Old Aberdeen. Tours are funded entirely by donations.
