From Edinburgh: St Andrews and the Fishing Villages of Fife

Your tour begins at Edinburgh Bus Station

Arrive for boarding at Gate J and Gate K in Edinburgh Bus Station. Your driver-guide welcomes you aboard the luxury mini-coach, then you roll out of the city and into Scotland’s coastal scenery.

See the Forth Bridges from the viewpoint

Take a short break at a panoramic viewpoint above the Firth of Forth, a dramatic coastal waterway north of the city. It’s the best place to see the Forth Bridges together, especially the red Victorian-era rail bridge recognized by UNESCO.

Explore Anstruther’s harborfront

Next, visit Anstruther, a small seafront fishing town in the East Neuk of Fife, known for its traditional harbours and salty North Sea views. Wander the old lanes, then follow the waterfront down to the harbour for boats, seabirds, and classic coastal atmosphere.

Spend free time in St Andrews

Then it’s on to St Andrews, a historic university town on the coast that’s also known worldwide as the “Home of Golf.” Use your time for lunch and whatever interests you most; ruined medieval landmarks, a beach walk, or a stroll past the Old Course, the iconic “links” or coastal dune land where the modern game took shape.

Walk Falkland’s cobbled streets

After St Andrews, continue to Falkland, a preserved village of stone houses and cobbled streets that many travelers recognize as a filming location from Outlander. Take time to wander, browse local shops, and enjoy a quieter slice of rural Scotland.
