Going on holiday in Aberdeen

Aberdeen is a lively city any time of the year, with plenty of alluring museums and attractions open to visit. July and August will see the peak tourist traffic, but this is also among the warmest seasons. Generally, you'll find the period from May to September to be the most rewarding in terms of weather. Although the city itself sees year-round attractions, the surrounding castles and estates have reduced seasonal hours, particularly in winter. Christmas does see excellent attractions, theatre performances and illuminations, but remember to wrap up warm against the chilling maritime winds. The surrounding countryside and neighbouring Highlands become extremely beautiful in autumn, but weather can be fickle.
