Pickup from Edinburgh

Your Edinburgh tour begins when you are collected at your residence in Edinburgh, the Capital of Scotland, by your driver-guide.

Edinburgh Castle

Proudly overlooking the nation’s capital city, we will visit Edinburgh Castle, one of the oldest, attractive and interesting fortified places in Europe. Alongside hosting the Scottish Crown Jewels and the Stone of Destiny, each section of the Castle has an exciting tale to tell, whether that’s as a Royal residence, military garrison, or more ominously, as a prison and fortress.

Palace Of Holyroodhouse

Next on our Edinburgh tour, we can visit the glorious Holyrood Palace – the official residence of the British monarch in Scotland, Queen Elizabeth II.

We’ll spend an hour or so exploring the palace – including the 16th-century historic apartments of Mary, Queen of Scots – and its impressive surrounding grounds.

Royal Yacht Britannia

Continuing our Edinburgh adventure, we’ll visit perhaps one of the most famous (unsunk) ships in the world: The Royal Yacht Britannia.

This former floating palace spent 43 years travelling more than a million nautical miles around the globe in service of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth before being permanently berthed in Edinburgh – allowing the public to tour and explore this magnificent piece of engineering history.

Royal Mile

Next, we can take a stroll along the winding paths and cobbled streets of the Royal Mile the main thoroughfare of the Old Town.

Arthur's Seat

Finally, we can visit Arthur’s Seat: an extinct volcano that is the main peak of the group of hills in Edinburgh. We can drive straight over the top of this hill (or you may enjoy a short hike instead) where we shall have wonderful views of the city.

Drop-off

Your Edinburgh Tour ends as you are dropped at your residence in Edinburgh.
