Ythanbank Reindeer

Visit and get up close to our reindeer herd from December 1st to December 24th (Closed Mondays). We also have Mediterranean miniature donkeys Jack & Frost!

Really enjoyed our afternoon visiting the reindeer. The woman who owns them was friendly and happy to tell us about each one of them and some interesting reindeers facts. Great thing to do to get into the Christmas spirit.

Ballater VisitScotland iCentre

Reviewed By lucyhelliker - Moreton-in-Marsh, United Kingdom

A really delightful establishment. Greeted at the door with quick chat about Covid rules then got into a city chat as the lady (a retired police inspector) was just so lovely! Very helpful lady inside helping me to choose a gentle walk (round the golf course, flat and fabulous along the Dee). Good gift shop with Gist jewellery which is fab. Sadly cafe closed since March. We were made so welcome.

If your in Aberdeenshire and looking for a family day out. The walks up and around Bennachie are excellent. Walk up to Mither Tap from the RowanTree car park or head to the visitors centre to start your trails. There are lots of options for walkers of all abilities.

Aberdeen VisitScotland iCentre

Reviewed By Smile62

Never visited Aberdeen before. Called in at the iCentre to ask for a street map. Within 5 minutes they had provided me with a package of information. I had been given info on a self guided tour of old Aberdeen. They had info on all the places that are currently open to visitors. And info on day trips in the surrounding area. Staff were friendly, helpful, welcoming and very well informed. Transformed my visit to the city.
