My friend and I were at the world famous Rosslyn Chapel today. Wow! The building is amazing, and the architecture is quite ornate. i have not seen another church carved to the extent and detail of this one. This is the ebst time of year to visit as there are not many tourists around so you get the chance to... more

Rosslyn Chapel was gorgeous! If you are in the Edinburgh area, you should definately go out of your way to see it. It is really quite easy to get to via bus. Just take the 15 or 15A; it drops you off at a pub, and you just cross the street to the drive way of the Chapel. It is... more

Rosslyn Chapel is a beautiful part of history. I wouldn't have missed this. There is a feeling of history that goes beyond the Hollywood experience. I came back and watched the movie "The Davinci Code" and it didn't even do this justice. There is a "feeling" here of sacredness that surpasses a lot of the chapels we visited in the... more

Having lived an hours drive away, I have always intended to visit Rosslyn Chapel, and never gotten round to it until now. I really wish I had gone years ago as I found the whole thing massively disappointing. The crowds of people, which I suppose is to be expected in August, and the scaffolding completley obscuring the ceiling and higher... more

A definite must-see if you are going to Edinburgh!! We went on a private tour with Rosslyn Tours and our guide was absolutely wonderful and very hospitable! I would recommend booking with Rosslyn Tours if you are planning on going to see the chapel and do not have your own mode of transporation. The chapel is breathtaking and extremely interesting.... more

After everything I heard about Rosslyn Chapel, I had to go when I was in Edinburgh. It didn't make sense to be so close and not go. We got on a bus at the stop in front of the Scott Memorial on Princes Street. You can pay for a day pass when you get on the bus, which I thought... more

AMAZING!

This was the first place on my mind when we planned our trip to Scotland.I myself found out about chapel as most of us through the DaVinci code,but forget about the book.Doesn't matter wether you believed every single word or thought it was rubbish,or never touched the book -the place is amazing anyway. Try to arrive as early as you... more

My daughter and I included a visit to this small chapel at the persistence of my daughter. She recently finished reading the DaVinci Code and knew about the chapel. My cousin (a longtime resident of Edinburgh) agreed to drive us because she had never visited the chapel. All of us were so glad we made the effort. It was fascinating... more

i loved it

It is very easy to reach Rosslyn Chapel from Edingburgh city center. We took hourly Lothian bus and it tool 30-40 mins. From the Rosslyn Chapel bus stop, cross the street and walk along the beautiful suburban road for 5-10 minutes and you'll find the chapel of legend. This small chapel is full of wonder I'd say. Not a single... more

This is not to be missed. We went to Edinburgh for our honeymoon, but we had been there before. We loved the chapel, the surrounding glen, and castle. It is fantastic for history, the views, and the reality of the place. It is not like the movie, which is a bonus. Please take a guided tour, and learn all about... more
