    Wonderful tour to St. Andrews and Edinburgh City Tour

    James_A, Aug 2026
    We had a great day traveling from our Cruise Ship in Edinburgh to St. Andrews! Our grandson wanted to see the Old Course and we were able to have our picture taken on the Swilken bridge! The taxi was large and comfortable and water was provided. After touring the Golf Course and Pro Shop we walked through St. Andrews Cathedral Remains and Graveyard. Then our guide, Mr. Saf, directed us to a delicious fish and chips place for lunch. After lunch we headed back to Edinburgh where we had a tour of all of the sites. It was the perfect day and fulfilled everyone's wish list!

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that your day trip from Edinburgh to St Andrews was such a memorable experience for your whole family. It’s especially lovely that your grandson was able to visit the Old Course and have a photo taken on the iconic Swilken Bridge — a special moment for any golf fan! We’re also pleased that you enjoyed the comfort of the vehicle, the refreshments, and the opportunity to explore both the Cathedral ruins and the historic graveyard. Mr. Saf will be very happy to know that his recommendations, including the fish and chips stop, helped make the day even more enjoyable. Ending the tour with a sightseeing drive through Edinburgh sounds like the perfect way to complete the experience. Thank you again for choosing us during your cruise visit. We’re so glad we could help fulfill everyone’s wish list, and we hope to welcome you and your family back to Scotland again in the future!
