What To Expect
Rosslyn Chapel
Our first stop is Rosslyn Chapel. Scotland’s ‘best-kept secret’ has now achieved worldwide fame since the publication of ‘The Da Vinci Code’. An architectural gem, its superb stone carvings are still not fully understood. Further mystery surrounds the chapel and its association with the Knights Templar and Freemasonry. Many visitors leave with their own theory but all are amazed. The short walk through the glen to ancient Roslin Castle is also fascinating.
Melrose Abbey
Enjoy lunch in the charming town of Melrose. The stunning ruined Abbey is the final resting place of King Robert the Bruce’s heart.

5.00Seeing Rosslyn Chapel and Hadrians walk was amazing. However, Angela’s knowledge, stories and curated music really made the trip!

5.00Beautiful countryside, fun guide, we loved Rosslyn Chapel and Hadrian's Wall! Angela was a hoot and so informative! We loved getting out of the city and seeing the rolling countryside. And of course, Hadrian's Wall, even in the rain, the secondary option was really beautiful!
Great Tour

5.00Rosslyn Chapel and Melrose Abbey were beautiful. Pictures do not do them justice. Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of my guide, because he was wonderful. It was fun day, I would definitely recommend this tour.

5.00it is a long drive to Hadrians Wall, but worth the trip! Our guide, Evan, was a wealth of knowledge and shared his country with us. Exploring Rosslyn Chapel and hearing the guide explain liberties taken by Dan Brown were fascinating, but you still wonder...stone with knights temple is really there.
