TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Visiting Aberdeen: Aberdeen can feel quite spread out, so if you want to squeeze more into your day, it's worth grabbing an e-bike from the city's hire scheme. Whether on foot or two wheels, it's a good idea to start in Old Aberdeen first, as it's a more logical order. Start at King's College before winding your way through to St Machar's Cathedral."
