Cần Quan Tâm
Scottish Borders
Departing Edinburgh, we travel south through the rolling, beautiful hills of the Scottish Borders. Hear tales from your Guide about the infamous Border Reivers, who raided villages and settlements in this part of the country for centuries – friends to neither the Scots nor the English! You’ll see for yourself why Sir Walter Scott, one of Scotland’s greatest cultural figures, loved this landscape and you will learn why it became his home.
Holy Island
Next, we set our sights on Holy Island, a place steeped in spirituality and history. Connected to the mainland by a causeway, Holy Island boasts the iconic Lindisfarne Castle and the ancient Lindisfarne Priory. Immerse yourself in the serenity of this sacred island, where the interplay of history and nature creates a truly magical atmosphere. *Please note that access to Holy Island is dependent on low tide, and we may instead visit in the afternoon.

5.00I ended up having a way better experience than I expected. Our guide, Breezer (sorry if I’m spelling that wrong), was super nice and shared tons of interesting info. I’d totally recommend this tour even if you’re not a Harry Potter fan.
Great 1 day trip!

5.00Craig, our tour guide, was excellent! Not only was he knowledgeable about the places we went, but he was very nice and conscientious for the whole group. Not only that, but he also gave us excellent recommendations on where to buy specific gifts that we were looking for. Above and beyond for sure!!

5.00William was our driver/guide and the best story-teller you could wish for. He's a lovely man, and considerate of the varied needs of passengers. He gave us options. He played great curated music, that fitted with his verbal themes. Love, love, loved it all. 11 out of 10!!! Personally I could have done with another 30 mins in Holy Island, but Hey - It was the most wonderful day - Honestly.
