St Andrews og Kingdom of Fife fra Glasgow
Beskrivelse
Kelpies-monumentet betager, stående på 100 fod, verdens største hesteskulpturer - en hyldest til den skotske industris robuste heste. I St. Andrews venter et andet monument - katedralen, der engang var pragtfuld, som nu spøger i ruiner. St. Andrews charmerer med elegant arkitektur mod kystbaggrunde, slotsruiner sammenflettet med en gammel golfbane. Udforsk historie, myter og skønhed på denne 1-dages tur fra Glasgow
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Efter at have mødt din chaufførguide i Buchanan Bus Station, går du til dit første stop
Dit første stop på denne tur er at se Kelpies-monumentet. Kunstneren Andy Scott lavede disse ikoner i lighed med Clydesdale-hestene Duke og Baron. De tjener som et symbol på slægten af robuste heste, der er vævet ind i den skotske histories billedtæppe, og spiller en afgørende rolle i udformningen af den nærliggende region Falkirk.
Tag på en dejlig rejse gennem de maleriske landskaber i Kingdom of Fife, mens du går mod Falkland. Omdrejningspunktet for denne charmerende gamle landsby er Falkland Palace, en fremtrædende residens for den gamle skotske kongefamilie, Stewarts (Stuarts). Ud over paladset fremstår landsbyen som en af Skotlands mest fortryllende, og den kan prale af en samling af historiske hytter og snoede smalle gader. Derudover vil fans af Outlander være begejstrede for at genkende denne lokalitet som baggrunden for 1940'ernes Inverness i den populære tv-serie.
Nu er det tid til det øjeblik, du ivrigt har ventet på: middelalderbyen St. Andrews. St. Andrew, Skotlands skytshelgen, siges at have fået sine rester bragt i land på Fife-kysten ifølge legenden. St. Andrews er også kendt for at huse det tredjeældste universitet i Storbritannien sammen med et fængslende slot med udsigt over en klippe. Du har cirka tre timer til at fordybe dig i denne fængslende bys fortryllelse.
På din rejse tilbage til Glasgow, gør et pit stop på *Queensferry Crossing for at undre sig over en af Skotlands mest imponerende menneskeskabte vidundere - Forth Rail Bridge. Nyd en betagende udsigt over dette ikoniske landemærke. *Bemærk venligst, at dette stop ikke er garanteret i vores vintermåneder på grund af dårlig synlighed.

Excellent daytrip and guide. We are on a 3 generation family vacation, and the day was enjoyed by all. James was very kind, he made sure stops were accessible for my parents. We had frequent breaks and there was so much to see. We loved the Falkland stop, such a beautiful town. There was plenty of time to explore St Andrews. The coach was very comfortable and the drive was very scenic. Highly recommend.
Had George, the best tour driver guide ever. Very knowledgeable and easy going. Rabbies ran this 9 hr tour even though we were only 2 people on trip. Other companies would have likely canceled. Highly recommend this trip. We left early and avoided the big buses. St Andrew's is more than golf. Lots of history and George had the answers.
A lovely, relaxing day throughout the Scottish countryside. Our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable as well.
We had a wonderful time on this day tour, in large part due to our guide, James. He is knowledgeable, engaging and has a great sense of humor - a delight to spend the day with! We enjoyed all the stops (especially the Kelpies and St. Andrews) - James gave us a good overview of the sights and we were therefore able to explore and enjoy the time we had there. Highly recommend this tour!
This day trip was a bit disappointing. The Kelpies were interesting. However the itinerary stated approximately 2 hours in Falkland and approximately 3 hours in St. Andrews. Unfortunately in Falkland we were given a very short time (less than an hour) which was enough time to walk down a few streets but definitely not enough time for the palace or anything else. It is a shame as this a very charming village. St. Andrews was interesting. If your interest is only St. Andrews then this tour would be okay.
Great day, very interesting.The schedule is perfect only for Falkland. This town deserves another 30 minutes to allow time to visit the castle. Nick was perfect.
Jeff C. was a great driver and tour guide. He gave us many good suggestions to keep our timing on track at each stop. St. Andrew's was amazing and the Kelpies was the experience I was waiting for! The stops in Falkland and Crail were also perfect sight seeing. I highly recommend and would definitely book again.
Visiting the Kelpies, Falkland and St Andrews was awesome. Our guide was entertaining and informative.
A relaxed and wonderful experience! Older Cameron was an acknowledgeable and fun guide, weaving in personal stories, history, and Scottish cultural music. The tour gives plenty of time to explore St Andrews and the other stops. It’s fantastic day trip that leaves you satisfied and knowing quite a bit more about this stunning country.
Cameron was awesome. So knowledgeable, friendly, patient, kind. This tour shows a very beautiful, green side of Scotland
