About the Student Guides
The Zoology Museum tours are devised and led by the students, with support from the University Collections team. Your guide may be a student who has already given many tours, or they may be giving their first tour. You are welcome to ask questions, if there are questions the student guides are unable to answer, you can contact us at uoacollections@abdn.ac.uk. We hope you enjoy your experience.

Book a Group Tour
If you are part of a group that would be interested in a student-led tour of the Zoology Museum, get in touch. This might be a group of friends or family/ a Scout group/ a Club or Society etc. The Museum is open Monday-Friday between 10am - 4pm but we may be able to accommodate some tours outside of these times. There is no charge for a group tour, but donations are always welcome.
