World Famous St. Andrews Old Course

St. Andrews Privately Guided Day Tour in Luxury Mercedes V-Class

Take in the picturesque coastal villages and towns throughout the Kingdom of Fife as we make our way to the world-famous St Andrews Golf Course.

Witness the beauty and elegant architecture along with sweeping coastal views as we take in the sights through the Kingdom of Fife. Cobbled streets, cottages and winding lanes remind us of a bygone era. The Kingdom of Fife is a stunning rural location across the Forth Bridges just north of Edinburgh which will lead us to the world-famous home of golf at St Andrews. Journey through the royal and ancient Golf Club, University, Castle and Cathedral in this dramatic small town.

1. Edinburgh Pick Up

Starting at your hotel (or location of your choice), your very own personal driver will pick you up to start your adventure.

2. Forth Bridges

As you leave Edinburgh, one of the first things you’ll see is the Forth Rail Bridge. An iconic image of Scotland, the famous red structure was voted the most important manmade structure in Scotland, so it’s no wonder it’s now become a UNESCO World Heritage site.

3. Picturesque villages of East Neuk

We will pass through the fishing villages of the East Neuk of Fife stopping along the way to take in the fresh sea air and enjoy the atmosphere of the villages.

4. St Andrews Castle

There has been a castle standing on this coastal location since the late 12 th Century. Now a ruin, this castle played an important role in the history of Scotland from the Wars of Independence to the Scottish Reformation.

5. St Andrews Golf Course

St Andrews is one of the oldest golf courses in the world and has been played on since 15th Century. No golf lover can visit Scotland without a pilgrimage to the “Home of Golf."

6. Visit St Andrews Cathedral

The largest church ever built in Scotland St Andrews Cathedral was the centre of the Catholic Church in Scotland until its ruin following the Scottish Reformation. Take a walk around the ruins and marvel at the impressive scale of this special place.

Sit back and relax as we make our way back to Edinburgh.
