By Editorial Team · Last updated 16/08/2026

Best season
May to September

We understand you’re wondering about the best time to experience a walking tour in St Andrews. Based on our offerings and general considerations for this type of activity, the most ideal period is undoubtedly May through September.

Walking tours thrive during these warmer months. The extended daylight hours allow for longer, more immersive experiences, typically ranging from 65 to 480 minutes – perfect for exploring the town’s history and landmarks. Furthermore, the drier weather associated with these months significantly enhances outdoor enjoyment, a key element of any walking tour.

Currently, we offer 20 different walking tours in St Andrews, catering to a wide range of interests and budgets. Prices vary from £7 up to £932, reflecting the diverse lengths and experiences available. The average rating across all our tours is an impressive 4.8 out of 5 – demonstrating their consistently high quality.

The most popular tour, the "Private St Andrews Town, Golf and Old Course Walking Tour," receives a remarkable 5.0/5 rating with just one review, costing £70. We anticipate increased demand for our tours during weekends, as walking is often a favoured leisure activity then.
