The guide was confused with the time to depart and return. We also never made it to the Wallace statue. We would have benefitted from a longer star at Melrose and a shorter stay at Rosslyn. Other than that, the guide offered a lot of interesting facts and information.

Most notably our tour guide, Andy was great. Asked and remembered most of our names. Also asked a little bit about each of us. Rosslyn Chapel is not just a location from a movie, it’s a work of art.and The countryside was incredible. It’s definitely a must see!
