PRIVATE TOURS

For parents who want a private tour, we are very happy to tailor your visit and get to know you individually. You are welcome any morning in term time, Monday to Saturday, and we are always delighted if you join us for lunch.

During your visit, you will meet the admissions team and the Headmaster, tour the school with a current student and see one of our boarding houses.
 
It’s best to visit during term time - students are around so it gives you a great sense of our school - but if your only option is to come during the holidays we will do our very best to accommodate your plans.
 
Gordonstoun is easy to get to and we are happy to give advice on travel and local accommodation. We’ll even pick you up from Aberdeen or Inverness airports or Elgin station (free of charge).
