Rosslyn Chapel and the Scottish Borders - Small Group Tour

Your tour takes you south to the world famous Scott's View, with stunning views over the Tweed Valley and the Eildon Hills.

From here you travel to Melrose exploring the great Border Abbey of Melrose, burial place of Robert the Bruce's heart. This is also your lunch stop.

From here you will make your way to the stunning 15th Century Rosslyn Chapel, immortalised in Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code where you can find out more about the myths and legends surrounding the whereabouts of the Holy Grail. From there you return to Edinburgh.

Rosslyn Chapel was founded by William Sinclair, 1st Earl of Caithness, in the 15th century. The Collegiate Chapel of St Matthew lies near Roslin Castle and the village of Roslin. After the Scottish Reformation, Catholic worship in the chapel was interrupted and it later became a place of worship according to the Scottish Episcopal Church.

Recently the chapel has been associated with Freemasonry and the Knights Templar. Dan Brown sets part of his 2003 novel The Da Vinci Code (and the 2006 film) in this chapel. Ian Rankin in his novel Set in Darkness has one of the characters give a tour of Rosslyn Chapel.
