Itinerario

Your tour takes you to the stunning 15th century Rosslyn Chapel, made world famous in Dan Brown's book, 'Da Vinci Code'. Here you have time to explore the chapel and find out more about the myths and legends surrounding the whereabouts of the 'Holy Grail'.

From here, you travel south to Melrose where you can visit the ruined Melrose abbey, founded by the Cistercians in the 12th Century. The Cistercian monks had close connections with the Knights Templar, and legend tells that Melrose Abbey is the burial place of Robert the Bruce's heart, brought back from the crusades in Moorish Spain.

You then get the opportunity to visit the statue of the great Scottish patriot, William Wallace and the nearby beautiful Scott's View, overlooking the Tweed Valley, before you return to Edinburgh.

* Please note that due to high level masonry inspections, unfortunately sections of Melrose Abbey may be closed during your visit. The sections which are closed do vary. We apologise for the inconvenience.
* Please note that if your tour departs on a Sunday, this itinerary will work in reverse.

  • FAQs:
    Do you offer hotel pickups in the departure cities?
    - The UK and Ireland's historic city centres are full of narrow streets and winding roads. So, to speed up your departure, we only pick up from our central meeting points. What's more is leaving the city using the most direct route also reduces the carbon footprint of our tours.
    Is there parking close to the departure point?
    - We don't recommend bringing your car into the centre of our departure cities. It can be hard to find parking, and there are excellent public transportation services.
    When should I get to the departure point?
    - Arrive 15 minutes before your departure time. Due to waiting restrictions, we can't wait for you if you're late.
    What happens if I'm late or miss the tour?
    - If you're late for your tour, our cancellation policy applies. 100% charges are applicable, and you will not be entitled to a refund or alternative.
    Can Itineraries change?
    - Your tour will always follow the itinerary as closely as possible. Your driver-guide will keep you up to date on the road, and we'll try to get in touch about any large changes prior to your departure.
    Can I pre-book a specific seat?
    - Due to logistical reasons, we're unable to let you pre-book a seat on the bus. But our comfortable 16-seat mini-coaches have huge windows. So, you'll always get a good view.
    Are there toilets on the bus?
    - Unfortunately, we have no on-board toilet facilities, but you'll have regular comfort breaks.
    How do you cater for people with accessibility needs?
    - We aim to accommodate everyone.
    How much time do I get off the bus?
    - We want you to enjoy Britain and Ireland. And we believe the best way to do this is to get you off the mini-coach and out exploring. So, we give you plenty of time to take photos, go walking, and explore ancient ruins.
    Why do you exclude visitor attractions?
    - We exclude visitor attractions in your tour price because it lets you travel your way. It means you can pamper yourself with a luxury lunch or skip an attraction whenever you feel like it.
    Do we need to bring our own lunch?
    - You don't need to. We stop in small towns, villages, and rural eateries where you can choose whatever meal pleases both your taste buds and your budget.
    Should I tip the driver-guide?
    - Let's be honest, our driver-guides would never refuse a cheeky bonus. But it's up to you, and the amount is entirely at your discretion.
    What about travel insurance?
    - We advise you take out travel insurance.
    What is ABTOT?
    - You're protected by ABTOT when you chose to let us reserve your accommodation on a multi-day tour. This means you can claim back anything you've paid us if we become bankrupt.
