Aberdeen
A self-guided audio walking tour of Aberdeen.
Aberdeen is built from the ground up in grey granite, and on a bright day the whole city seems to glint. It sits where the River Dee meets the North Sea, a working port town that wears its history plainly, in the long stretch of Union Street, the spires of the university quarter, and the sound of gulls carrying in off the water. Walking here has a distinctly northerly feeling, brisk and clear and quietly beautiful. In the app, 50 stops in Aberdeen are narrated aloud, about 1h 25m of listening across 7 walking routes, in 13 languages, offline once downloaded. Choose a route or build your own, then walk while a calm voice tells you the story of each stop. The app also maps 47 Instagram photo spots, social media photo locations with directions to where you stand for the shot.
