Hadrian's Wall & The Borders Private Luxury Tour

The Romans came, they saw, but they couldn’t quite conquer. After centuries of raiding, plundering, and fighting the ancient north of Britannia, they decided to build a wall. But this isn’t just any wall, it’s an astounding achievement. It showcases the might of the ancient Roman Empire and illustrates how the Roman’s interacted with tribal Britain. This excursion takes you to the most interesting parts and lets you learn about Rome’s influence on Britain, while also giving you a chance to explore the gentle rolling hills of the borders, and visit an ancient abbey. It’s perfect for anyone fascinated by the collision of cultures and quintessential British landscapes. No waiting for other passengers remember you call the shots this is Your Day, Your Way!

Jedburgh Abbey:

Your first stop on this tour is the border town of Jedburgh, a historic burgh dominated by a magnificent 12th century Augustinian Abbey.

Jedburgh Castle Jail and Museum:

On arrival in Jedburgh, you may have time to take a short walk through the narrow streets and visit this impressive ruin.

Carter Bar:

Continuing south we make a stop at the scenic Carter Bar on the edge of the Cheviot Hills. This crossing point between Scotland and England runs close to the ancient Roman road and has formed the border between the two countries for the past 700 years

Northumberland National Park (Pass By):

The tour continues through the magnificent forests of Northumberland National Park before turning west towards Hadrian’s Wall.
