This independent day trip takes you by train from London King's Cross to Edinburgh, Scotland's capital. Your return train ticket with reserved seats comes with an Edinburgh open-top hop-on hop-off bus ticket and admission to Edinburgh Castle. Without a guide, use the free map and information guide to explore the Old Town, the Palace of Holyroodhouse, the Scott Monument and more at your own pace. You can choose between Standard Class and First Class.
Early in the morning, board your reserved-seat train at London King's Cross and arrive in Edinburgh around 11:30 after a journey of about 4 hours 20 minutes. No staff will escort you at the station, so bring your e-ticket and voucher and board the train yourself.
Right outside the station, board the open-top sightseeing bus to explore the city. With the hop-on hop-off ticket you can get on and off freely at any stop, passing the Old Town, the Scotch Whisky Heritage Centre, the Scott Monument, the Palace of Holyroodhouse and the Scottish Parliament building.
Explore Edinburgh Castle with the included admission ticket. Wander the cobbled streets of the city centre or stroll along Princes Street, browsing shops selling Scottish specialities such as tartan, whisky and shortbread. Use the free map and information guide to plan your day as you like.
Board the train in Edinburgh in the late afternoon and arrive back at London King's Cross around 22:30 after a journey of about 4 hours 30 minutes.
