Privately Guided Day Tour
St Andrews and The Fishing Villages of Fife Private Shore Excursion From Edinburgh Ports
Overview
From coastal villages to picturesque towns, the Kingdom of Fife is quite spectacular. Your private guide will show you the best that Scotland has to offer along the way before you arrive at the world-famous St Andrews Old Course.
Here, you’ll get to see the legendary fairway and take your picture by the Swilcan Bridge so you can remember your trip for years to come. Next, your guide will take you to the Cathedral and Castle and tell you about the history of St Andrews before making your way back to Edinburgh.
Itinerary
Ship Pick-up
Your own personal guide will pick you either from your ship terminal or the tender port, usually arriving 30 minutes before your tour begins, ensuring a warm and seamless start to your experience.
Forth Rail Bridge
As you leave Edinburgh, one of the first things you'll see is the Forth Rail Bridge. An iconic image of Scotland, the famous red structure was voted the most important manmade structure in Scotland, so it's no wonder it's now become a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Picturesque Villages of the East Neuk
We'll pass through the fishing villages of the East Neuk of Fife, stopping along the way to take in the fresh sea air and enjoy the atmosphere of the villages.
Lunch
We'll make a reservation at The Tom Morris Grill, a modern Scottish restaurant overlooking the iconic Old Course at St Andrews — subject to availability.
St Andrews Old Course
St Andrews is one of the oldest golf courses in the world and has been played on since the 15th century. No golf lover can visit Scotland without a pilgrimage to the "Home of Golf."
St Andrews Castle
There has been a castle standing on this coastal location since the late 12th century. Now a ruin, this castle played an important role in the history of Scotland, from the Wars of Independence to the Scottish Reformation.
St Andrews Cathedral
The largest church ever built in Scotland, St Andrews Cathedral was the centre of the Catholic Church in Scotland until its ruin following the Scottish Reformation. Take a walk around the ruins and marvel at the impressive scale of this special site.
