What to expect

Discover the beauty of the Scottish Borders and Northumberland on this full day tour from Edinburgh.

Continue south to Alnwick, where you can choose to explore the magnificent Alnwick Castle (admission optional), famous for its appearances in the Harry Potter films and Downton Abbey, or spend your free time discovering the town's independent shops, cafés and famous bookshop. The tour also includes a scenic drive along the spectacular Northumberland Coast, with stunning sea views and historic landscapes, before returning to Edinburgh.
