Highlights of St. Andrews

Coastal Vistas and Medieval Landmarks Embark on a guided walk through St. Andrews, famed for its golfing legacy, ancient university and rich history. During the Middle Ages, St. Andrews was one of Scotland’s most important religious centers, a legacy symbolized by the famed St. Andrews Cathedral, once Scotland’s largest church. Begin with a journey by motor coach to this historic town, nestled along Scotland’s east coast, then set out on foot to discover its local landmarks with your guide. Also known as the “Home of Golf,” the iconic Old Course can be found here—it is credited as the oldest golf course in the world, with play recorded as early as the 15th century. The town is also home to the University of St. Andrews; founded in 1413, this internationally renowned institution is one of the oldest universities in the English-speaking world. After your walk, enjoy lunch at a local restaurant, then return to your ship. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
