Discover Scotland’s majestic capital and one of its most iconic royal treasures on this unforgettable tour. Begin with a panoramic drive through Edinburgh’s elegant Georgian New Town, along Princes Street, and down parts of the famous Royal Mile, which stretches from the 17th-century Palace of Holyroodhouse to the imposing Edinburgh Castle. Learn about the city’s rich history, from Mary Queen of Scots’ residence to Bonnie Prince Charlie’s occupation, and hear tales of dramatic events that shaped Scotland’s past. Pause at one of the city’s high vantage points for sweeping views over Edinburgh and beyond.
Continue to The Royal Yacht Britannia, one of the world’s most famous ships. Launched in 1953, Britannia served the Royal Family for 44 years, sailing on 968 official voyages across the globe. Today, permanently moored in Leith, this floating palace offers a fascinating glimpse behind the scenes of royal life. Explore the gleaming engine room, the Queen’s and Duke of Edinburgh’s private bedrooms, the crew quarters, and more. Your visit concludes with time to browse the gift shop before returning to your ship.
Please Note: This tour lasts approximately 4 hours and involves less than 1 km of walking on smooth surfaces aboard the Royal Yacht. The yacht is fully accessible for wheelchair users, though guests requiring assistance should be accompanied. Comfortable shoes and a light jacket are recommended. Refreshments are not included, but shopping opportunities are available at the Britannia gift shop and Ocean Terminal Mall.
