Driver in Edinburgh
 
We will be visiting Edinburgh for a day on a cruise stopover. I want a driver for 6 people to do the highlights. Any suggestions for driver and/or itinerary?

Most of the things you could see in a day are within a few hundred yards of The Royal Mile & are easily walkable. The only thing you may need a driver for is to get from ship to The Royal Mile.

So where does your ship dock as there are a number of places it could be using

Leith....Do you know the distance to town?

Leith is in Edinburgh, take the 35 Lothian bus service from Ocean Terminal to Holyrood Palace and walk up from there - it's £1.30 per adult each way or £3.20 for a day ticket. If you go down onto Princes Street the 22 bus is extremely frequent back to Ocean Terminal
