- Rosslyn Chapel - The journey begins with a visit to the remnants of Rosslyn Castle, where the mysteries of Scotland’s renowned chapel will be unveiled. Constructed in the mid-15th century on a small hill, Rosslyn Chapel became a pivotal center for the Catholic Church.
Today, the chapel is celebrated for its ties to Freemasonry, the Knights Templar, and the Holy Grail. Dan Brown’s novel, The Da Vinci Code, brought it fame for its association with these legends. The guide will provide insights into these fascinating connections.
- Jedburgh - Next, the tour moves into the lush pastures of the Lowlands. The vibrant green landscape leads to Jedburgh, a quaint village with royal connections, situated near the Anglo-Scottish border. Here, there will be time to relax and prepare for the journey into English territory.
- Vindolanda - At Hadrian’s Wall, there is an opportunity to explore one of its military camps: Vindolanda. Visitors can observe ongoing excavations and learn about its construction and the lives of its inhabitants. This experience offers a glimpse into a significant period in human history. Vindolanda stands as one of the best-preserved Roman forts on Hadrian’s Wall, though a visit to Cawfields is necessary to fully appreciate its grandeur.
- Cawfields Roman Wall - Crossing the border leads into Northumberland National Park. On the park’s southern edge lies a key highlight of the excursion: Hadrian’s Wall, stretching 117.5 km from east to west. This remarkable feat of Roman engineering marked the northern boundary of their Empire, showcasing their ingenuity despite limited resources. The wall also historically divided Great Britain, holding back the Viking and Celtic forces from Scotland.
- Melrose - As the journey returns to Edinburgh, a final stop is made at Melrose Abbey, renowned as one of the most splendid examples of medieval ecclesiastical architecture in the British Isles.
