Overview

Our full-day tour of Edinburgh and Rosslyn Chapel is a great combination of our Edinburgh Highlights and Rosslyn Chapel tours. On the trip you will experience a comprehensive narrated tour of Edinburgh's history, through the old town and new town. See many of Edinburgh's famous landmarks but also go off the beaten path to explore some areas we know and love. After a late lunch take the short hop out of the city to Rosslyn Chapel, one of Scotland's most important religious sites. Almost destroyed by the elements a chance visit from Queen Victoria reversed Rosslyn's fate and a more recent visit by Tom Hanks put the church on the world-stage. Your kilt-wearing private tour guide will explain the history of the places you visit and will regale you with stories and folklore as you travel. Our premium Mercedes minivans are ideal for the journey, offering unrivalled comfort for up to 7 guests. Bottled water, wee treats and wifi is complimentary onboard.
