About 

Enjoy an incredible day in St Andrews, the home of golf and also the home of Scotland's oldest and arguably most famous university.

Thereafter we will travel through the East Neuk of Fife, an area famous for picturesque villages, arable and livestock husbandry, soft fruit growing and a magical coastline.

 

Upon arriving at St Andrews, enjoy a walking tour of this beautiful seaside town, famous throughout the world not only for golf, but also for its prestigious, historic university.

 

This beautiful corner of Scotland was also the Ecclesiastical centre of Scotland, home to the majestic former St Andrew's Castle, Bishop's Palace and to Scotland's largest and most impressive Cathedral.

 

After lunch we will hug the coastline and visit two delightful fishing villages, Anstruther and Crail.
