Exploring St Andrews • Scotland with Bo Fraser
Yes.
St Andrews Scotland is known as the home of golf.
But there is more to this beautiful seaside town than golf — although the golf is epic and important.
St Andrews has a rich history that focuses not only on golf, but on education and religion.
So you’ll find cathedral ruins, castle ruins and a stellar university.
Plus it has this amazing location right along the sea — and not far from the Scottish capital of Edinburgh.
Tune in as Bo Fraser, blue badge guide of Scotland Your Way, tells us all the reasons why this town in Fife should be on your Scotland itinerary.
And yes, she is a bit biased since St Andrews is her home town.
