描述
Explore some of Scotland's fascinating history and culture on a day tour from Edinburgh. Learn about the myths of the Holy Grail and Rosslyn Chapel and travel to Melrose to see its 12th-century abbey.
Your tour takes you to the stunning 15th century Rosslyn Chapel, made world famous in Dan Brown’s book, ‘Da Vinci Code’. Here you have time to explore the chapel and find out more about the myths and legends surrounding the whereabouts of the ‘Holy Grail’.
From here, you travel south to Melrose where you can visit the ruined Melrose abbey*, founded by the Cistercians in the 12th Century. The Cistercian monks had close connections with the Knights Templar, and legend tells that Melrose Abbey is the burial place of Robert the Bruce's heart, brought back from the crusades in Moorish Spain.
You then get the opportunity to visit the statue of the great Scottish patriot, William Wallace and the nearby beautiful Scott’s View, overlooking the Tweed Valley, before you return to Edinburgh.**
