Weather aside (cool and rainy) this was a great day out from Edinburgh. Carys, our guide, was wonderful. She shared a lot of interesting historical information but also left us in peace to enjoy the Scottish tunes she played and the scenery (or a snooze). Tour was very well organized. Alnwick Castle is super impressive as was the town itself. Lindisfane is a charming wee village but be prepared for quite a walk if you want to go to the castle. We didn't have enough time so enjoyed the priory and a coffee in one of the cafes. I highly recommend this tour and Timberbush.

First Photo-Op at Bamburgh or Lindisfarne Castle

Begin the adventure as you leave Edinburgh and embark on a journey southward to the border of Scotland and England aboard a minibus. Along the way, be mesmerized by the breathtaking views of East Lothian, featuring a blend of hills and dramatic coastlines. As you arrive in the stunning coastal town of Bamburgh, take a moment to stroll along the picturesque beach and marvel at the spectacular 5th-century Bamburgh Castle perched on a natural throne of volcanic dolerite. Or look forward to the serene setting of Holy Island's Lindisfarne, exploring the ruins of the Priory, where the iconic Lindisfarne Gospels were crafted.

Visit Alnwick Castle or Hogwarts!

In the afternoon, head to the main highlight of the show which is Alnwick Castle. Learn about the popular films and TV shows that have been filmed at this magnificent castle, and feel like a star yourself. Being a favourite spot for the world of cinema, from the famous Harry Potter films and Downton Abbey to the action-packed Transformers: The Last Knight, the castle holds many more mysteries than you'd think! Choose the ticket option with included castle entry to explore many of its rooms. After your time at Alnwick Castle, make your way back over the border into Scotland, passing significant battlefields and hearing stories of the turbulent past of the Scottish/English border to end the tour back in Edinburgh in the early evening.
