Forth Road Bridge
Driving 45 minutes out of Edinburgh we will have the option to stop in South Queensferry to get a photo of three famous bridges that span three centuries. One being a World UNISECO heritage site.
Falkland
Driving further north over the new Queensferry Crossing Bridge the longest cable stayed bridge in the world we will travel 40 minutes arriving into the historical village of Falkland. We have around 45 minutes here to have a wonder around the village and grab a coffee and sweet treat. This village was used in the popular TV show ‘Outlander’ acting as the town of Inverness, so you may recognise the Bruce Fountain from season 1. You will also see the outside of the magnificent Falkland Palace. This is where James V died from an illness induced by shock and grief of his army’s defeat at Solway Moss.

Marco was our driver. He was knowledgeable and accommodating to our every need! He got us to all of the best picture spots and shared his vast knowledge of Scottish history with us. If you are visiting St. Andrews, hire Marco to drive you - you won't be disappointed!
