Decode the mystery of Rosslyn Chapel...

The tour starts with a historical mystery at Rosslyn Chapel* made famous in Dan Brown's novel "The Da Vinci Code". Is this the resting place of the Holy Grail? No one really knows, but you'll love the chapel or you may want to enjoy the beautiful walk you can take through Roslin Glen and the ruins of Rosslyn Castle.

Stop off at Melrose Abbey...

You'll then drive south through the Scottish Borders, pausing for a photo stop at Melrose Abbey - widely regarded as one of the most beautiful ruins in Europe. Robert the Bruce's heart is thought to be buried at the Abbey and it is the final resting place of a number of other Scottish Kings.

Discover the Magic of Alnwick Castle...

The star attraction of the tour is Alnwick Castle*. This is the second largest inhabited castle in England and has been lived in for over 700 years. It is full of fascinating things to see and mysteries to uncover. You may recognize it as a location from some of the Harry Potter films.

An Amazing Coastal Journey Home...

The road home takes you up the stunning east coast, past some beautiful sights such as the Holy Island of Lindisfarne and the pictureque coastal town of Berwick-upon-Tweed.
