Combine the majestic heights of Royal Deeside with the epic cliff-top site of Dunnottar Castle.
For almost 150 years, the British royal family have travelled to the River Dee for their holidays.
With almost unlimited cash and resources, why do they always come here?
We think there’s an easy answer.
This area encapsulates everything everyone loves about Scotland. You find grand castles enclosed by pine forests. You look up at the highest plateau in Britain in the Cairngorms National Park. And there’s enough nearby distilleries to satisfy any royal event.
So, who wouldn’t want to escape to the fresh air of this location?
On this tour, we combine her Majesty’s favourite holiday spot with a trip to Dunnottar Castle, one of the most historically important and visually arresting sights in Scotland.
Hop aboard this tour, see an epic castle, and discover whether you have the same taste as the royals.

Dunnottar castle was stunning! Unexpected option to visit Balmoral Castle which was great!
Chris was so friendly and accommodating! I think this was my 4th Rabbies day tour… will definitely book with them again!

We were visiting our grown sons in Dundee and wanted to do a day trip with them. The Dunnottar Castle trip was great! We all enjoyed it and made great memories. Our guide, Jim, was informative and entertaining.

Great guide from Rabbie's. Jim, I believe, was the gentleman's name. It was a pleasant and entertaining trip. You learn a lot about Aberdeen's history and the history of Scotland. The views from Dunnottar Castle are amazing. Scottish countryside and small towns are a sight. Definitely recommend this tour.

One of the most beautiful castles (ruins) I've ever seen. It's at the top of my favorite list among those I've visited. It is about 30 minutes from Aberdeen, in Stoneheaven. You can go by car or by bus that leaves from the station next to the Union Street shopping mall. You get off very close to the castle. The train drops you off in Stoneheaven city center so I don't recommend it. The castle is located on a cliff that is quite detached from the mainland, which is the most beautiful thing to see, especially if it is a sunny day. The tour is soooo worth it and you can do it without a guide or buy a tour.

This was a great trip, and our guide, Jim, was outstanding. Dunnottar Castle is a must see. We also truly enjoyed our visit to the Highlands and the beautiful nature walks we were able to share.
