Day Trips From Edinburgh

Edinburgh is Scotland’s capital city, steeped in thousands of years of history. The city is well placed to explore the East Coast, the Scottish Borders and the Kingdom of Fife. Most of these destinations are around 1 hour from Edinburgh making for a perfect day out where you want to maximize your time exploring rather than sitting in a car especially when you are only in Scotland for a short period of time. We have a variety of set tours starting from Edinburgh for you to choose from and they are between 8 to 12 hours long.

Where do our Edinburgh Tours Start?

Our meeting point for Edinburgh is at Dalmeny Train Station, a short 15-minute direct train journey from Edinburgh Waverley and Edinburgh Haymarket Stations. It is very well located and accessible from any point in Edinburgh City you are staying. The station is very easy to find as well and is small enough to not get lost – we meet next to the Dalmeny Deli. Please see the map below:

We offer private tours from Edinburgh for a number of group sizes and interests. The benefit of a private tour is that we can bespoke it to your own interests and we pick you up from your accommodation.
