Highlights GPS-triggered audio plays automatically as you approach each landmark - explore Aberdeen at your own pace, with no group and no fixed start time. 9 stops across Aberdeen, roughly 63 minutes of narration, walked in whatever order and at whatever speed suits you. Works fully offline once downloaded, so you need no data or signal while you walk. Your code never expires and there is no fixed date - buy now and use it whenever you next visit.   Explore Aberdeen at your own pace A city where centuries collide and hidden corners hum with untold secrets-Aberdeen rewards those who seek beyond the granite facade. On this self-guided audio tour, wind through ancient lanes and university closes to uncover political feuds, rebellious scholars, and eccentric legends lost to time. Why did a group of blue-cloaked Bedesmen vanish without trace in living memory? Which defiant prisoner plotted escape beneath the clocktower's shadow? Could a forgotten tunnel from Bede House to St Machar's still hide proof of scandalous midnight errands? Journey through echoes of laughter and locked doors, across weathered stones and bustling quads. Every step reveals a new thread in Aberdeen's dramatic tapestry, from whispered revolutions to quirky local rituals. See the old city not as it stands in guidebooks, but as it pulses beneath your feet.   Photo: Daniel Olaleye , Unsplash   Tour details Duration: 59 minutes, entirely at your own pace Distance: around 2.6 km (1.6 miles) Stops: 9 landmarks, including Bede House, Old Aberdeen, Old Town House, Old Aberdeen, King's Pavilion Audio: up to 23 minutes of narration Starts at: Bede House, Old Aberdeen     How it works Book here and a redemption code arrives by email within minutes.
