25 January 2022
As February rolls in, it's easy to feel stuck for activities to do now that the Christmas festivities are well and truly over. To help you avoid the winter blues and avoid spending the colder months couped up on the sofa, VisitScotland has partnered up with a variety of businesses in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire to offer you up to 50% off. The offer is valid until the 18th of February, so don't wait up!
There's a whole range of activities to choose from here in Aberdeenshire. You can start by walking through history at Dunnottar Castle. Discover the treasures of Scotland's colourful past by exploring Dunnottar Castle, one of the most impregnable fortresses in the world. A ruined clifftop fortress that stands on a dramatic ledge once served as the home of the Earls Marischal, once among the most powerful families in the land.
If you want to become one with nature, you can try Highlands Unbridled. Their base is in the beautiful Royal Deeside of the Cairngorms National Park, where they offer pony trekking and ride-outs for all ages and abilities. They have something for everyone, from horseback rides across Scotland to trips in the Cairngorms.
Escape 808 Aberdeen is perfect for those looking for a bit of adventure and adrenaline. This unique escape room experience will challenge your puzzle-solving abilities, as well as your TV trivia knowledge.
The newly refurbished Aberdeen Science Centre offers visitors an interactive, educational, and fun experience. It is one of Aberdeen's top visitor attractions, with over 60 interactive exhibits, workshops, and science shows, including the UK's first immersive theatre.
