St Andrews Walking Tour

At 11 am we'll meet at the Martyrs' Monument and begin a guided tour of St Andrews to discover this small coastal town steeped in history.

We'll start walking along The Scores, the fairway that connects The Old Course, the oldest golf course in the world, with the castle and St Andrews Cathedral. As we walk, we'll discover the town's most mythical stories. For example, did you know that the rules of golf were set here and that it's home to one of the oldest universities in the UK?

Of course, during the St Andrews walking tour, we'll also visit one of the town's landmarks, St. Regulus Cathedral and Tower. Here we'll discover the legend about the relics of St Andrew, patron saint of Scotland.

After photographing these imposing ruins, we'll visit the castle and enjoy the views of the North Sea from the fortress's privileged location. We'll also pass the University of St Andrews and St Saviour's Chapel.

After 1 hour 30 minutes of sightseeing, the tour will end at the starting point.
