Edinburgh airport is approximately 8 miles from the city centre, so pre-book your airport transfer and travel in style. Have a look below to find out more about each type of transfer we can offer.

Shared Transfers

Shared Shuttle

One of the most convenient and budget-friendly options, our shared transfers, also simply known as shuttles, or shared bus transfers, are a great way to get to wherever you're going, whether within Edinburgh itself or a nearby destination. With this option, you'll join other avid travellers in a large vehicle - but don't fret, the shuttle will make some stops before it reaches your hotel, so you won't be on the bus all day.

Speedy Shared Transfers

Speedy Shuttle

Looking for something a little quicker, but still incredible value? Our speedy shared transfers are a great way to get where you need to be without breaking the bank. These work almost exactly the same way as our standard shuttles, but will instead have fewer stops on the way to your hotel, meaning they offer a great combination of quicker transfer times and a budget-friendly option.

Private Transfers

Private Transfer

If you're travelling in a small group of friends or family and you don't want to pile into a transfer with people you don't know, then our private transfers could be just the ticket. You can sit back and relax as you're driven directly from the airport to your hotel in or near Edinburgh, or another destination in Scotland, with the minimum of fuss, in a private, comfortable car. This option can also serve private accommodation.

Private Executive Transfers

Travelling with friends or family? For slightly bigger groups of holiday-makers, you can hop on one of our private minibus services for a simple and quick transfer between the airport and your hotel. Split the cost of this between everyone travelling, and you can end up with a fantastic price.

Wheelchair Adapted Transfer

Wheelchair Adapted Transfers

For anyone with mobility requirements, we offer wheelchair adapted transfers to help make your journey to your hotel hassle-free. These transfers go door to door from the airport to your accommodation so you can book with the confidence that your journey will be as straightforward as possible.

Private Coach Transfers

Private Coach

If you are transporting an extra large party, then hiring one of our private coaches as your transfer service in Scotland, is the easiest way to get where you need to be in one group. You'll also be assigned a rep to help everyone board the coach, and when you split the cost between the whole group, this could even end up being the cheapest option for your transfers.
