Fairly annoying questions
Unfortunately not but I’m happy to suggest free attractions in sunny Dundee.
The tour will go ahead, unless a severe weather warning has been issued.
Dress like an onion. In layers, with warm waterproof clothing. Don’t forget comfortable footwear, hats and gloves. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best.
The route is lovely when the sun is out, in horizontal rain, not so much.
The Dundee Railway Tour – This one is. Four stations, two tunnels, two bridges and a lot of land. Hear how the railways changed Dundee.
The Dundee Gaming Tour – Despite it’s many valuable contributions to the computer gaming industry. Dundee does not have a gaming museum but it does have tour.
The Dundee 4J Tour is a history tour.
The Dundee Engineering Tour is mostly about engineering with a bit of polar exploration. You will discover how they move jackup drill rigs along the River Tay and how they build offshore windfarms.
The V&A Design museum has no vertical external walls, learn how engineering was used to fulfil the Kengo Kumas design. Learn how Dundee Railway station was constructed over the busy east coast mainline.
Hear about the RRS Discovery + Endurance.
Yes, I offer both private tours for small groups or netwalking tours for larger groups.
Through Eventbrite
The tour is through public areas so please respect your guide, fellow visitors and the fine citizens of Dundee. If you turn up off your head or tripping the light fantastic, you won’t be joining the tour. Just to clarify, anyone who is or appears to be under the influence of drink, drugs (or rock n roll) will NOT be allowed to join the tour, and they won’t be getting a refund.
Your safety is important. We want you to survive the tour and write something nice on Trip Advisor. Your guide will do their best to keep you safe from seagull attacks and sand storms. Please follow any advice given, part of the route is a cycleway so fast moving bicycles can be a hazard. Please note you are responsible for your behaviour and the safety of your belongings.
No I’m afraid not due to insurance and the tour isn’t really suitable for dogs due its stop start nature.
