About this activity

Nowhere in Scotland is more riddled with mystery than Rosslyn Chapel. There’s the connection to the Knights Templar and the Holy Grail. Some even believe the chapel was built on a UFO landing site. And let's not forget this striking chapel was used in the Da Vinci Code movie. Explore the enigmatic Rosslyn Chapel, admire the gorgeous Tweed Valley, and visit Melrose Abbey, the alleged resting place of the heart of Scottish king Robert the Bruce.
