9.St Andrews, Falkland and Fife Villages Tour from Edinburgh

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 50 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $77

A 9-hour guided day trip from Edinburgh to Fife and St Andrews, with bridge views, Anstruther Harbour, Outlander filming stops, and free town time.

“The guide was great, however the trip description was not accurate. The description indicated we’d spend 3 hours at St. Andrews and we got an hour and a half. We spent too much time at the first stop (an hour, when 20 minutes would have been enough) which was described as the last stop. It would also have been much better to have lunch at ST. Andrews than the small (very small) fishing village we visited. There is a lot to see in St. Andrews but we were very limited by time and very disappointed.”

“Visited the main St Andrews shop in Scotland, the gentleman in the shop was extremely helpful, knowledgeable about the watches, how made, history of the brand and wide array of faces and straps available. I have to say these are beautiful watches, real prices of art and quality feel. Yes the movement is Japanese at present but proven reliability. I ended up with a gunmetal Knoydart on a leather strap. Very very pleased, thank you Kartel Watches. From Jonathan Stuart.”
