ABERDEEN MARITIME MUSEUM REVIEWS
The staff on reception were extremely welcoming and informative. Sadly, I didn't have two long to experience everything in this museum. So I did get around it very quickly and sadly could not see everything I wanted to see. I really enjoyed my time there and saw some interesting things at this Martime Museum. If I am ever in Aberdeen again, I will be making more time so I can return and stay for a little longer.
What a fun and informative visit! Haven’t been in years, but it was well worth going. A fab morning for adults and children alike, with some great interactive activities to do. The history of Aberdeen was fascinating!
Fascinating Museum, full of interesting displays and artifacts. With the added bonus of a birds eye view over the harbour and the North link ferry terminal which links Aberdeen to Orkney and the Shetland islands.

THE GORDON HIGHLANDERS MUSEUM REVIEWS
I visited the museum on Friday with 4 members of my family. It was of particular interest to us as my wife had two brothers who were both Gordons and I was also attached to the Regiment for 5 years. The tour was very informative and we were well looked after by Bert Innes. Gerry Pilling.
A story well told ....a fantastic insight into the history of the Gordon Highlanders. The guides were very knowledgeable, the museum was full of interesting artefacts and personal memorabilia, the gardens were lovely and the restaurant/ coffee shop was lovely ( the empire biscuits were yummy!) Well worth visiting.
Fantastic museum and guided tour, some incredible regimental pieces. The Cafe does good sandwiches and cakes.
