Explore Dundee at your own pace
Beneath Dundee's riverside shimmer lies a city forged in adventure and whispered secrets. Every street holds more than meets the eye if you know where to listen.
Set out on a self-guided audio tour that turns familiar landmarks into gateways of intrigue. Follow winding lanes from the awe-inspiring RRS Discovery to soaring cathedral spires and buzzing modern arcades, hearing tales most passersby never uncover.
What desperate act turned a polar expedition into a fight for survival? Who hid messages in plain sight at the Diocese of Brechin while conspiracies stirred? What absurd rule once sparked outrage inside the Overgate Centre's bustling walls?
