I am visiting Edinburgh for the first time next week. This is of great help. Thank you :D
Glad it was helpful! Enjoy Edinburgh when the time comes!
You two are brilliant! Another helpful info video.
Awww, thank you so much, Valerie!
Thank you very much for your videos.
Glad you like them!
Excellent, great info!
Thank you!
Another great video. Thanks for representing our city so well.
Thank you so much!
I love your videos! Such valuable information! Have subscribed and saved some videos for my upcoming trip to Edinburgh! Keep up the great work! 😊
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoy our videos! Enjoy your trip to Edinburgh when it comes!
For the trams if not going to the airport personally I use the et app which for a day is £3.80 if not going to Edinburgh Airport
Very informative video! Can you also pls suggest some reliable car rental service provider in Edinburgh. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed the video! We have only used Arnold Clark in the past in Edinburgh and have never had any problems with them. Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAway thanks a lot.
Hi. How do we indicate to the driver that we want to get off at the next stop? And will there be any screen that shows which is the next stop?
There are red buttons all over the bus for you to press for the next stop - you won’t miss them. All of the newer buses have screens showing you the next stop. Hope this helps!
I know you said I could get the map of the airport and the bus map however I am not seeing where? I love your videos.
You can find additional information in our accompanying blog post, which is linked in the description! And our Edinburgh Airport video (and that accompanying blog post), also linked in the description, has information about the airport. Hope this helps and glad you enjoy our videos!
Can you explain using the family day tickets and family airlink tickets that are available through the m-tickets app? Is it just one ticket I show on one device to cover the two adults/one child in my family?
Yup, that’s correct! Normally, m-tickets are only valid for one person per device, with family m-tickets being the exception. You just have to activate it on your device, show it to the driver, and tell them who’s with you as part of the ticket. Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAwayvery helpful, thank you!!
i#m planning on taking my best friend to edinburgh in a few months and I was wondering if there are any tickets that are valid for like a whole week? thanks for the great video, I will definetly watch some more before I go there
For Lothian Buses, there aren’t weekly tickets as such, but the cheapest way to get around for a week would be to use TapTapCap, as there is a weekly cap of £22. Hope this helps!
May I ask what is TapTapGo ? Is it just use your credit or debit card to tap and go😊 Thks🙏
Very helpful and lovely video! I have two questions.
- If I get a day ticket in paper form? How do I use it for multiple trips?
- Can I pay for two day tickets with one contactless credit card?
Thank you for your lovely comment!
For a paper day ticket, just keep your ticket with you and present it to the driver every time you hop on a bus.
And yes, you just need to first tell the driver that you'd like two adult/child day tickets and you can tap your card when the driver tells you to.
Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAway Thank you so much. Super helpful!!
Does the tap tap system work with the trams too .. or is it just for the buses.
Thanks !
TapTapCap is not currently available for the trams as they operate on a pre-purchase policy, but you can pay via contactless before you board a tram. Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAway many thanks
I would like to know how to go to the city centre from Edinburgh railway station. How far is it?
Edinburgh Waverley, the main train station in Edinburgh, is right in the middle of the city centre!
We cannot use the London's Oyster Card in Edinburgh???
Unfortunately, the Oyster card is only for London, so it can’t be used in Edinburgh!
Hi, I have a question: if I have to take a bus that leaves at 4.13am, do I have to buy a night ticket? Thanks
Lothian Buses’ NightBus service runs between midnight and 04.30 so yes, you would have to buy a night ticket. Hope this helps!
@@OneJourneyAway okay, now it’s clear, thank u !
Is this tap-tap ticket like day ticket?
Sort of - if you take the bus multiple times per day, the system will cap your taps at £4.80, making it slightly cheaper than buying a £5 day ticket. Hope this helps!
May I know how to buy ticket for children below 15yrs old if they don’t have credit card?
They can pay by cash or if they’ll be with you, you can use contactless to pay for both of your tickets - you would just tell the driver which tickets you’d like. Hope that helps!
@@OneJourneyAwaythanks a lot. Appreciated for your reply.
I’d rather just use Uber or walk.
