Edinburgh is steeped in regal history. The Scottish Crown Jewels at Edinburgh Castle are a must-visit, and the Royal Yacht Britannia will fascinate the whole family. Plus, when you hire a car, everything is within easy reach. Vibrant Glasgow, historical St Andrews and stunning Loch Lomond are just one or two hours' easy drive away from Edinburgh.

Drive that bit further and visit the town of Dunfermline or take a trip out to Blackness to the 15th-century castle. 

A Wide Range of Car Rental Options

For short trips in the city, we have hatchbacks or small cars. But if you really want to explore Scotland's winding roads, why not opt for the safety and comfort of a 4x4? Whatever you need, you can easily compare our entire range on our simple online car hire booking tool. You can even add useful extras, such as a sat nav, or child and booster seats. 

Driving Information in Edinburgh

Edinburgh is a very bicycle-friendly city, so be aware of cyclists. There are no toll roads in Scotland. Drive slowly in wooded areas since there could be wild animals on the road. Some country roads are too narrow for two vehicles, so anticipate oncoming traffic on bends and use safe passing places.
