St. Andrews & Fife's Fishing Villages Day Trip

At 9 am we'll depart from the meeting point indicated and leave Edinburgh crossing the Forth Bridge towards Fife. We'll pass through the village of Aberdour and continue on to the East Neuk of Fife, known for its small harbours that were once the heart of Scotland's East coast fishing trade.

As we make our way along the coast, we'll stop in Anstruther to visit the Scottish Fisheries Museum. Next, we'll proceed to Pittenweem, Crail, and St. Monans, which were important fishing centres for trade in the area.

In St. Andrews, you will have three hours of free time to have lunch and explore the cobbled streets and medieval facades. Key sites include the oldest university in Scotland, the impressive cathedral, and the symbolic golf course.

Afterwards, we'll return to Edinburgh, stopping at Falkland, a setting for the Outlander series. We'll also view Loch Leven, where a scene for Mary Queen of Scots was filmed. Our last stop before arriving in Edinburgh will be South Queensferry.

We'll arrive back in Edinburgh at 5:45 pm.
