A Private Tour to the most famous Royal Castle in Scotland

Let us take you to the castle that has been lived in by every king & queen since Queen Victoria in 1856. You will be able to walk through the grounds and visit the State Room in the castle.

Then we will visit Crathie Kirk which has been attended by the Royal Family since Victorian times. Finally onto Royal Lochnagar Distillery for a tour or tasting or both. The distillery, opened in 1845, is one mile from the castle and sits at the foot of the Cairngorm mountains.

(The State Room is not available when royalty is in residence in the castle – mid August to the end of September – or in the winter months October til March.)
