The guide spends about ten minutes here explaining the significance of this location. Next, the group visits Aberdeen Art Gallery for around ten minutes to see how street art and traditional art galleries coexist in the city. The tour then continues with a ten-minute walk along one of Aberdeen's oldest streets, where the guide explains the city's ancient origins. After this, the group explores the tunnels associated with the witch trials for about ten minutes. The tour proceeds to The Green, a site with over 8,000 years of human activity, where the group spends another ten minutes. Following this, the route includes a ten-minute stop at Shiprow, an area historically important for local trade. The tour concludes outside the Aberdeen Maritime Museum, near ancient townhouses, with a final ten-minute stop. Throughout the walk, the guide highlights notable street art found around the city centre. The tour covers key locations including Marischal College, Aberdeen Art Gallery, St Nicholas' Kirk, Netherkirkgate, the tunnels linked to witch trials, The Green, Shiprow, Union Street, and various street art spots. A local guide leads the tour, providing historical and cultural information from Aberdeen's early days as a fishing settlement to its role as a European oil centre.
