St Andrews Ghost Tours

St Andrews Ghost Tours are exploratory guided walking tours around historic St Andrews

As an ideal showcase of St Andrews, these guided walking tours take in the major historic quarters including the Cathedral, Archbishops Palace and Colleges of Scotland’s oldest university.

Whether you’re interested in the paranormal, the history, the sights of St Andrews, or all of the above, this is a great way for any looking to explore and find out more about this unique part of the world.

Recommended by Rick Steves Scotland

“Now part of many a bucket list as a ‘must do’ whilst in St Andrews”

Please note
These are factual, historical, educational tours, and with this, a note of caution to the unwary. This is the real stuff. If you’re looking for theatrics or costumed actors, you won’t find any here. Neither will you find any contrivance or embellishment, and the only ‘jumper ooters’ are the real ghosts!

Fabulous night
“I have been on ghost walks all over the world and can say this is one of the best. Richard was excellent with delivering the abundance of knowledge he has aquired. His passion shows. Thank you for a memorable night in Scotland.”
R DeEtte, Wisconsin

ST ANDREWS
WAFFLE
COMPANY
131 South Street

Home of the Liege Waffle,
made from Belgium dough!

The journey starts in the heart of Belgium where their waffle dough is produced. It is then shipped to St Andrews, where they proof the dough in batches, before baking delicious fresh waffles throughout each day.

A great place to relax in the heart of St Andrews and watch the world go by – or at least this beautiful quarter of it.

They also serve Glen Lyon Coffee, burgers, open sandwiches and much much more. Plus a great kids menu.

MOLLY MALONES
Child* and dog friendly!

Located at 5 Alexandra Place, not far from the Bus Station and Students Union.

Enjoy great food (inc childrens menu) and an extensive bar.

*The only stipulation is that children must have a meal.

No in-house offers apply

Pouring great beer, brewed in St Andrews, plus guest beers, Thistly Cross cider and an enviable array of whisky and gin, they have a truly eclectic drinks list.

Families are well catered for with loads of choices for kids – and they are particularly dog friendly.

Why not have lunch in one and dinner in another!
