Private St Andrews and The East Neuk

Your adventure begins from the port of Greenock, Scotland, as we journey across the majestic Firth of Forth River via the grand Queensferry Crossing into the enchanting Kingdom of Fife. As we head northwards, our first encounter is the idyllic Falkland, a village that embodies the timeless charm of Fife. Roam the stone-paved lanes and marvel at Falkland Palace, a favorite place and refuge for Mary Queen of Scots. Observe its Renaissance brilliance, lush gardens, and the iconic Bruce Fountain, a familiar sight for Outlander fans. Experience the charm of a bygone era and immerse yourself in Outlander's magical realm at the town square, while stopping by Mrs Baird’s for a steaming coffee.

Next, we'll navigate to the tour’s highlight, the renowned town of St Andrews. Popularly hailed as the golfing world's birthplace, this town boasts an illustrious history beyond its exceptional fairways. Once Scotland's religious hub, St. Andrews and its cathedral drew pilgrims from all over the country in medieval times, hoping to be cured at the saint’s shrine. In later years the city became known for spearheading the Protestant Reformation in Scotland. Additionally, St. Andrews’ allure extends to the hallowed halls of Scotland's oldest university, and the third oldest in the English-speaking world. Founded in the mid-1500s, it is a global bastion of prestige and intellect, with an alumni roster including notable figures such as Prince William and Kate Middleton.
