Rosslyn Chapel one-day tour in Edinburgh, UK

Your tour will take you to the stunning 15th century Rosslyn Chapel, made famous worldwide by Dan Brown's book, The Da Vinci Code.

You will then have the opportunity to visit the statue of the great Scottish patriot William Wallace and head to nearby beautiful Scott’s View overlooking the Tweed Valley before returning to Edinburgh.** *Please note that parts of Melrose Abbey may be closed during your visit due to high-level stone inspections.
