Private Shore Excursion from Edinburgh

Tour ID: 1277 Private Edinburgh, South Queensferry 1 Day - 8 hours approx.

Description

Go Scotland Tours can arrange your private tour from any cruise port in Edinburgh. There are 3 ports; Ocean Terminal (Leith), South Queensferry, and Rosyth. If you are wanting to escape the crowds and prefer your own hired vehicle and private guide rather than the large coach tours then you have come to the right place. Our guides specialise in be-spoke tours that are tailor made to your request.

We can explore Edinburgh and begin with a panoramic sightseeing tour. Taking in the Georgian architecture of the New Town and the gloomy history of the Grassmarket. A visit to Edinburgh would not be complete without a tour of the Castle then a walking tour of the old town. Additionally if time permits we could visit Holyrood Palace.

Just outside the city is Rosslyn Chapel famously included in the Da Vinci Code. The masonry of the interior is truly stunning. We could visit here and the Glenkinchie Whisky Distillery.

A tour to St. Andrew's and the Kingdom of Fife would take the full day. On the way we pass by Leven Castle where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned for a short time. Then onto Falkland for a short coffee break by the palace. The afternoon we will spend a few hours exploring St. Andrews Cathedral, Castle and old town. On the way back to the ship you can enjoy the coastal views.

The itinerary can be customised to your request depending on which attractions you would like to visit most. For more details contact us and we can start planning your shore excursion from Edinburgh.
