Culture & History
The iconic V&A Dundee is an incredibly striking building right on the waterfront.
Dundee is the fourth-largest city in Scotland by population, but it doesn't feature prominently on the usual tourist trails
We think the city is a bit of a hidden gem, and we're looking forward to telling you why.
The city of Dundee has a wonderful location on the banks of the river Tay, and commands incredible views across Fife. In the last decade, its attractions have grown in number and quality, leading to it being recognised as one of Lonely Planet's list of top 10 European destinations in 2018. Dundee was also the first UK city to be recognised as a UNESCO City of Design.
As well as there being plenty to do and plenty to shout about in the city, Dundee is actually one of the sunniest places in Scotland in both summer and winter! Everything is relative, of course, but credit where it's due - in fact, there have been years when Dundee has clocked up more hours of winter sun than the rest of Scotland combined!
Included as part of a multi-city break, or as a stopover on a longer self-drive itinerary, we think Dundee has a lot to offer visitors and we'd love to help you discover the very best of it!
