Panoramic Edinburgh & the Forth Bridge

Scotland’s Picturesque Capital and a UNESCO World Heritage Site Embark on a panoramic journey through Edinburgh and view the UNESCO-listed Forth Bridge. Begin your excursion with a scenic drive through Scotland’s capital. Travel through the elegant Georgian-style New Town, once a residential district for Edinburgh’s upper-class and now a cultural hub and thriving commercial district. See the medieval Royal Mile, linking Edinburgh Castle to the Palace of Holyroodhouse, one of the King’s official Scottish residences, and pause for photographs at West Princes Street Gardens. Continue to South Queensferry, set on the southern shore of the Firth of Forth, where you can take in the views of the Forth Bridge. This Victorian cantilever railway bridge was one of the longest in the world at the time of its completion in 1890 and was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015. Enjoy time for photographs, then return to your ship. * Easy - Walking portions are generally over easy surfaces with few steps or inclines. Total time walking or standing is normally not longer than 1.5 hours.
