Great video 👏👏👏
My daughters were there when it went over the Viacuct and it is included in her movie called "Canadian Sisters Explore the UK"
Wonderful information 😅
I visited for 8 days in May. I got around mostly on the bus. The public transport was so easy, loved it. Easy and cheap, the rides were capped at $6 a day so you really could ride unlimited.
Airlink 100 now goes to waverley bridge station, not st David Street.
How about the departure of the bus 100 from the city to the airport? What are the schedules? Thank you in adv for your reply
100 runs 24/7 every day. Every 8 minutes during the day and slightly less during the night. Pay by card on board. So simple to use.
Tram all day long!
Can u let me know how to get from airport to courtyard Marriott ? Via bus or tram..? Which bus number? Will bus 100 still able to? Is courtyard Marriott is in new town??? Thank you very much..
Wow, they are all beautiful gorgeous animals.
Been to Edinburgh lately. I took the tram from the airport. A return ticket was nine pounds fifty and it takes around 30 min to get to Princess street in the city centre. Its a no brainer.
Many thank
Great thank
Great to hear that you have picked up the Scottish term "outwith".
If you are on a real budget you can walk to the next stop for the tram, I think it’s the park and ride. You can get the tram from there to the city centre at the usual rate ie non airport rate. I think it’s £2.50 to the city centre. The trams had to charge the same as the buses as part of the deal for getting to build to the airport. This should save you a bit, like I said if you are on a real budget it’s worth a 5 minute walk. Oh and now the trams go all the way to Leith
Hey, the currency is the British pounds, right ? Same as in London
Thanks again. Watched the first part and now the Part II. ❤
Very, very helpful. Going to EDI next month.
Thank you so much for this. So helpful.
A very informative video, thanks for sharing.
I have a question. If passport is expired , is it ok to use only my European id 🪪 ?
Generally speaking, since Brexit, European nationals need a valid passport to enter the UK. The UK Government website should give you more information: www.gov.uk/guidance/visiting-the-uk-as-an-eu-eea-or-swiss-citizen
wait a second, ok with the tap when you check in the bus, but when you step off what happens? you tap it as a check-out?
You only need to tap when you get into the bus - the fare is not based on the length of your trip. There’s one price for as long as you stay on that bus, so if you need to switch buses, then you pay again when you get on the next bus. Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAway Thanks 💕
What helpful content, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!

What type is the grey van in the video. Looks like the size I'm looking for, for my trip.
That would be a campervan! Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAway haha 😄
Just to clarify, a motorhome is the white one effectively with the home built around it and a campervan is the grey one, so if you’re looking to hire one for your trip, you’d be looking for a campervan. We had a Fiat Ducato campervan but there are also Fiat Ducato motorhomes!
Myself and the family used an orange bus at the front door of the Airport to the city and it was only £4 for an adult, staff for that orange bus are even at last stop, really not sure where they get their energy from as they are all so smiley, even let my kids get photo in the seat. Letting your viewers down here the fact you didn’t mention the orange bus. . I didn’t even know about an Airlink until we arrived in the city, we used it on the return to Airport but it was way more expensive, probably cause it was a double decker and was a lot newer, driver said nothing and ticket seller didn’t look like he wanted to be there. I’d use Orange bus next time.
It will be my 1st time in Edinburgh and am considering a free walking tour and I was wondering what is considerate an acceptable tip? Like what is the minimum to max you can tip?
We’d say around £10 per person if you can afford it and if you felt that the tour was worth it! Of course you can tip more if you feel it is well deserved. Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAway thx alot. I come from a country where tipping isn't part of the culture but appreciated, that's why I was wondering bc I didn't want to look cheap lol. Thanks alot for your answer and for all the tips in your blog.
You’re welcome! The tipping culture in the UK is nowhere near as intense as in North America, so we wouldn’t worry too much about tipping here. Like your country, it’s definitely appreciated, but no one’s going to chase you out the door of a restaurant if you don’t leave a tip!
@@OneJourneyAway it is actually good to know because I've always dreamt of visiting Scotland but am on a very tight budget(am a student), but let's hope that with the help of your tips I'll make the best out of my trip. ^^
Is a buggy or pram allowed on the buses?
Yes, they’re allowed! There are usually 1 or 2 spaces for prams on a bus, depending on the exact bus you get. Hope this helps!
Perfect! Thank you.
You're welcome!
Great which one is better tram or bus?
Your preference really! If you prefer riding on a double-decker bus, then opt for the bus. If you prefer a smoother ride, then opt for the tram. We suppose the only thing about the bus is that it might get stuck in traffic (the tram can as well but likely not as much)! Hope this helps!
Can any one help me ? Does she mean Edinburgh airport to Glasgow city centre ?
What should I get that I can't get outside of Scotland. Whether it is experience trinkets. I enjoy Scotch whiskey. Distillery tours? Also like to buy rare Scotch whiskey
What is the post code for the carpark , it would be useful to link google map link on your blog site
This is the location of the car park on Google Maps: maps.app.goo.gl/pneFzba2uayP6GdG8?g_st=ic Hope this helps!
Hi, is this tap tap a specific card or I can use my ATM card?
As long as your card has the contactless symbol (like the WiFi symbol on its side), you can use it! Hope that helps!
Great video. Does anyone know the approximate cost of Uber from EDI to Edinburgh city center?
You’re my favorite Edinburgh vlogger. Thank you for sharing your information of your beautiful place.
Awww, thank you so much for your lovely comment!
I arrived today in Edinburgh airport. An absolute affront to Scotland. The most untidy, scruffy embarrassment of an airport in Europe.
"You ll have had your tea" this phrase i learned today LOL.................thanx
Thank you for the video. I'm going to grassmarket/oldtown from the airport by the 100, what is the best/nearest stop should i get? appreciate for your suggestions
You’re welcome! You could get off at either Princes Street or Waverley Bridge to get to Grassmarket or Old Town - they get you within a 10-15 minute walk. Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAway Hi A-A...noted, thank you for your reply, God bless you.
Thanks for another helpful video. Hope all well with you.
What a pity newcomer Bright Bus was not mentioned in the updated video.
They don't run during the night . Try arriving late at the airport and last one I found out to my cost was at 2355 so missed it. Next one was 0330 !
First to comment
This is simply spectacular and you both deserved it! ❤
Only thing I am not sure about is how to catch a bus to go to Stirling or other small towns from Edinburgh but it sounds like I can get these type tickets at Waverly station which is close to where we are staying.
Yes, many small towns outside Edinburgh have train stations, so you can catch the train at Waverley. The bus station is also close by if there are no trains to where you’d like to go!
We are traveling there in October, very helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Is thete a train from dublin to edinburgh?
Very helpful video! Can I take my luggage with me? (on the bus and tram) Do you know if I can get off at Waverley station? Thank you
Thank you for your comment! Yes, you can certainly take your luggage with you on the bus or tram. For Waverley, you can get off at the last stop if taking the 100 bus or St Andrew Square if taking the tram. Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAway Thank you!! I appreciate the quick reply 🥰
If I take the tram to Waverly, will there be taxi or Uber available there? I have 2 luggage to my final destination
Do you have any vids discussing purchasing tickets? Sorry if I overlooked it... love your channel, thanks!
What kind of tickets do you mean? If public transportation, we have a video about how to get from Edinburgh Airport to the city centre (ua-cam.com/video/JMjr5hQ8dns/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared) and we also have a video about how to get around Edinburgh (ua-cam.com/video/9FBIx1RjbrY/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared). Hope this helps and thanks for your lovely comment!
@@OneJourneyAway yeah that was a pretty vague question. I was referring to buying tickets to things like Edinburgh Castle, etc. Got it all figured out though, seriously enjoy your channel, thank you!
Amazing information!
Thank you so much!
Good to know about this meal deals. Thank you for telling us.
Your video is such a great help in planning my trip to Edinburg. Thank you very much for sharing this info. I'm a new subscriber!
