Gardenstown
Explore the north Aberdeenshire coast During the first part of our journey, we make our way through the Aberdeenshire countryside, to the coastal villages of Gardenstown and Crovie. Built into the red sandstone cliffs the villages have a special and remote atmosphere. From the lovely harbour and beach, you can look out over the Moray Firth and perhaps catch a glimpse of the dolphins and other wildlife in the bay. The village of Gardenstown recently celebrated their 300th naming anniversary, and its harbour has a fleet of small fishing boats. On the quayside, you can occasionally see men preparing their lobster pots for the next catch, as well as the Salmon House which contains the Heritage Centre. We encourage you to take a walk along the coastal path which take you to Crovie, dating from the 18th century, if the tide allows. Crovie is the smallest and most remote of Buchan cliff-foot fishing villages, it comprises a single row of houses, most gable-end to the sea.
Pennan
We need a Hero Pennan came into existence as a fishing village in the 18th century. The people of Pennan were dependent on the sea and most families had small boats, often multiple generations of the same family lived in the village. With a pebble stone beach and smart houses with colourful windows, there is a charm and peacefulness in the village that tempts you to linger and listen to the waves. Pennan became famous in the 1980s for being used as one of the main locations for the film Local Hero and representing the fictional village of Ferness. Film enthusiasts have come from all over the world to make a phone call in the red telephone box which featured in the film.

The tour was even better...

5.00The tour was even better than I expected. Our tour guide Jamie was knew the area and gave us a lot of information along the way. We had a small group of 7 so could be flexible. The Aberdeenshire villages were gorgeous, with dramatic ups and downs. We saw Pennan, where Local Hero was filmsed but the most amazing place was the Bullers of Buchan. I highly recommend this tour for folks who want to see the villages.
Great Coastline visit.

5.00Very well planned trip around the coastal villages of Aberdeen. Our guide Alec/Alex was AMAZING. Every minute of that 8 hour trip was fun and informative for the curious souls. The day went from cold, rainy, sleety to sunny and everything in-between but Alex's energy was 100% all day. Learned a lot about Scottish history , fisherman and coastal life. And finished the tour off with majestic and adorable hairy coos watch. All in all day and money well spent. Ty Alec you wonderful soul!!
Great day out visiting the coast of Aberdeenshire.

5.00The tour guide Alex Duncan was amazing. He was so knowledgeable about everything Scottish. The information he shared included history, geography, current events, and lore. He was friendly and patient. Also a good driver! I couldn’t have been happier with my tour! I want to visit again with my family and share this experience with them.

5.00Right from the beginning of the tour you can tell Jacqueline loves Aberdeen and with good reason. What a beautiful road trip we had. The scenery is spectacular! Jacqueline was a great guide and went above and beyond to make sure I saw everything on my bucket list.

5.00Alex Duncan, our guide and driver, was excellent and congenial: engaging, deeply knowledgeable and conversational about a wide range of topics related to the coastal villages and Aberdeenshire in general, appropriately flexible to the group's preferences, a professional driver. I would welcome opportunities to take more tours lead by him.
Do yourself a favor & book this!

5.00We had 7 on our tour + Alex our guide. What a beautiful day we had! Alex was fantastic. Knowledgeable, funny, as well as helpful. The coastal views were gorgeous. W/o a tour, we would not have been privileged to see the beauty that is Aberdeenshire. Alex made it all come alive. We had a great group of people. Enjoyed it very much. Spend the money and sit back and enjoy! Thanks Alex!
What a wonderful day out

5.00Wonderful day out with the nicest guide possible. Lovely landscapes. I've been waiting for some time to visit Scotland, I've seen so many movies and documentaries and I have to say, it was all worth it. Highly recommend.
