Unfortunately it's not doable. Aperture was dropped along with iPhoto several years ago. So you'll have to use Photos or one of the other image management apps.
You can import your Aperture photos into a Photos library via the Import menu in Photos. However, if you have a lot of organizational effort in the Aperture library, i.e. folders, albums, etc., you might want to consider using the paid version of PowerPhotos as it is more thorough in importing into Photos. A user tip shows the differences between the two is here: Merging/Importing iPhoto/Photos library into Another Photos Library: PowerPhotos vs Photos… Or not.

Apple is out of the advanced image management business. All they are offering now is the free Photos app, which, imo, is considerable much more advised that iTunes ever was.
You might want to stick with Lightroom and DXO.
Thank you very much for replying! I am using Lightroom and DXO but was always a fan of Aperture and install CD popped up for sale today locally so wondered if its doable. As you said.. unfortunately it is not. Wondering if Apple will ever do something similar considering now majority of pros using Apple products for their work.
