Full Tour Itinerary
We leave Edinburgh behind and make our way to our first stop at South Queensferry, where we will stand beneath the iconic Forth Bridge. The bridge, built-in 1890, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has a striking position spanning the Firth of Forth. It has been voted Scotland’s greatest man-made wonder.
Our journey then takes us across the River Tay to visit the vibrant city of Dundee. Spend time exploring the contemporary V&A Dundee, Scotland's first design museum or step aboard the RRS Discovery that took Captain Scott on his intrepid Antarctic expeditions.
We will spend a leisurely afternoon in the ancient, historic town of St Andrews, famous throughout the world as the home of golf. If you are a fan why not take time out to visit the British Golf Museum which sits overlooking the world-famous ‘Old Course’ where you can take a short walk to get a photograph of the famous Swilken Bridge.
There is much more to St Andrews than golf, of course. The town boasts the oldest University in Scotland. There are also lovely beaches to be explored, and the chance to visit the Cathedral and St Andrews Castle, which now lie in ruins. Our tour guide will conduct a free guided walking tour, which you are welcome to join.
Later why not enjoy delicious ice cream during a stop in delightful Anstruther, before we head back to Edinburgh.
