EDINBURGH SIGHTSEEING
EDINBURGH FULL DAY: The "City of
Princes". Take a private tour of the principal sights of this elegant
Georgian city. Drive along Princes Street and through the 200-year-old New
Town. See the medieval section of the city and visit Edinburgh Castle which
dominates the city center and contains many interesting exhibits. Your
exploration of the capital of Scotland includes the "Royal Mile",
from Edinburgh Castle, high atop Edinburgh Rock, to the Palace of
Holyroodhouse. Holyroodhouse is the
formal home of the Royal Family in Scotland. Mary, Queen of Scots lived here
from 1561 to 1567, and watched as her secretary, David Riccio was murdered. The
last Stuart to reside here was Bonnie Prince Charlie.
EDINBURGH- ST. ANDREWS Drive north on the main highway
before following country roads through rolling farmland to St. Andrews. The old
medieval cathedral town is home to the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St.
Andrews and, of course, the incomparable Old Course. Choose to visit the
British Golf Museum with its displays chronicling the history of golf,
photograph the facade of the venerable Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St.
Andrews, stroll a portion of the Old Course or browse the town’s shops for
golf items, woolens and souvenirs. The university town (Prince William went to
school here), has cobbled streets, interesting shops, a ruined castle and
church. Cathedral Ruins - Photograph the 14th-century ruins of St. Andrews'
cathedral and its priory. St. Andrews was a considerable medieval town,
sporting both a cathedral and a university.
