Yorkshire Scenic Transfer to Edinburgh Tour

The real beauty of this tour is the efficient use it makes of your holiday/vacation time. On first inspection, it may appear quicker to take the train. While the train is a great option for some, by the time you have caught a taxi, hauled your luggage to the correct platform at the station, and done the same again at the other end, you have spent nearly a full day travelling, missing out on historic sites such as Hadrian’s Wall, Bamburgh Castle, the wild Scottish border country or the other wonderful sites and landscapes we travel through along the way.

What to expect:

Duration: between 8 hours and 9 hours

Yorkshire

Heading up North with a midmorning break in the Yorkshire Dales National Park OR just over the county border in the historied and important English county of Durham.

2 hours

Northumberland

Northumberland, UK

We then head into some of the wildest and most starkly beautiful terrain & landscape England has to offer,
before arriving at Hadrian’s Wall, OR we may explore the wonderful Northumberland coastline and its tiny coastal villages and mighty castles or we can divert via the Lake District National Park. It's a private tour and I am happy to discuss the best options when I meet you on the morning of travel. The decision is primarily based on your preference and weather, there are often big differences in weather on the West and East coast sides of the United Kingdom that should always be factored in for the very best day together.

2 hours

Hadrian's Wall

Carlisle, CA8 7DD

We typically stop somewhere along the 74 mile length of Hadrians wall, Hadrians wall is a UNESCO world heritage site and allows you to see some of the most extraordinary Roman ruins on Earth set amongst a rugged and awe inspiring scenery. We also have the option of going to Vindolandia, Vindolandia is a deserted Roman Fortress town a couple of miles away from the wall. There is a small entry charge at Vindolandia of £9.25 for adults and £5.50 for children. This only is payed should you decide you wish to visit Vindolandia.
