My wife and I are booked on a September 2023 cruise that makes a stop in Edinburgh, Scotland. It appears that none of the listed shore excursions include an opportunity to tour the Royal Yacht Britannia which is something we both wanted to do. Since the ship will be in port from 9 AM to 7PM we were wondering if it would be possible to do a medium length tour earlier in the day and then walk from the ship in the afternoon to see the Britannia. I cannot imagine why a stop in Edinburgh would not include touring the Britannia, hopefully one will be added before departure.
Is it possible to walk or take a short taxi ride from the ship to the Britannia and can you simply walk up and purchase admission tickets or must they be purchased in advance? Thanks so much for your help and I may have a few more questions about things to see and do on a British Isles cruise.
