Fife trip planner

Fife boasts one of the best public transportation systems in the country, so getting in and around the region is quick and easy. Most visitors to the so-called Kingdom of Fife find themselves inescapably drawn to St Andrews, home to a world-famous golf course and Scotland’s oldest university, established in 1410. Despite the county’s reputation for being little more than the southern commuter belt to Edinburgh and the town of St Andrews, its people are very proud of their colorful past. As the birthplace of Adam Smith, the father of modern economics, the area has a history steeped in economic achievement. An atmosphere of distinctness from the rest of Scotland gives this area an old-world charm, enforced by the multitude of quaint fishing villages dotting the countryside. Fife is in Scotland.
