From Edinburgh to Inverness: travel tips
Trading Edinburgh's historical appeal for the beauty of Inverness? Here's how to make your Edinburgh to Inverness transfer flawless and fun as you travel through the heart of Scotland.
Time your journey
Dodge the brunt of the traffic by leaving early in the morning or late in the afternoon. Timing is key as the highways may grow crowded, particularly in peak travel season. Plus, the early morning sunrise in the Scottish Highlands is simply magical!
Plan scenic detours
With a few well-placed stops, your road journey will become an amazing Scottish adventure. Stretch your legs at Glen Coe, the dramatic Highlands setting for films including "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" and "Harry Potter". Alternatively, have a wee dram at one of Scotland's smallest traditional distilleries, Edradour Distillery. Each stop adds a layer of excitement and discovery to your journey.
Prepare for typical Scottish weather
Scottish weather can be erratic, so prepare for dramatic changes. Cool, cloudy summers and cold, rainy winters define Inverness' oceanic climate. It might be stormy and windy, particularly during winter months. Carry a waterproof jacket and layers to remain comfortable, no matter the season.

Reasonably Priced and Safe Transportation
“Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.”
Daytrip never disappoints
“We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.”
Great driver in Egypt
“Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.”
Comfortable and Safe Rides in Mexico
“Used Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.”
