❤️ A Valentine’s Date with a Difference ❤️

Looking for something a bit different this Valentine’s Day? We’ve got spaces available this Friday, 14th Feb, on our Vaults Tours at 6 pm & 7.15 pm.

Skip the usual dinner plans and take your other half under the streets of Dundee, where you’ll explore real stories of crime, trade, and life in the city’s past. It’s a side of Dundee most people never get to see—and a date they won’t forget.

Book now at www.ddtours.co.uk before spaces go.

💸 And if you're more into books than dates, we've got up to 28% off our books and gift vouchers—the perfect last-minute Valentine’s gift for the history lover in your life.

Just in Case You’ve Forgotten… 🕰️

Our winter deals are still running until 31st March - that means you’ve still got time to treat someone (or yourself) to a slice of Dundee’s history. Perfect for Valentine’s, Mother’s Day, or just because.

From book bundles packed with dark Dundee tales to discounted vouchers for our tours, there’s plenty to explore—and a bit of cash to save while you’re at it.

📣 Today’s the Day – we’re kicking off our first public tour of 2025, and what better way to dive into the new year than by delving into Dundee’s hidden history?

We’ve got two Vaults Tours running today, at 2 pm and 3:15 pm, and there are still a few spots left if you fancy a wee wander beneath the city streets. You’ll get a proper look at some of Dundee’s hidden history.

We got things rolling yesterday with a private group tour (aye, we do those too—perfect if you’re planning something a bit different for your pals or work crew), but today marks the start for the rest of you.

We unfortunately had to cancel our Old Steeple Tour planned for tomorrow, but the next tour with available spaces is on Sunday, 9th February if you want to explore this ancient tower with us.

Start 2025 by digging into Dundee’s history—get yourself booked in here:

Step under the streets and into the hidden Vaults of old Dundee – a part of the city that’s been built over, forgotten by most but waiting for you to explore. Only with DD Tours can you access this…
