Common questions

Travelers ask about entry rules, local currency, the transfer from Edinburgh Airport (EDI), and getting around Edinburgh. The official tourism and government sources cover current visa and entry policy; the airport and transit operators publish transfer and fare details.

Before you book

Confirm your hotel sits on a sensible line from Edinburgh Airport (EDI). Check event dates that move hotel prices, and verify any timed-entry rules for Edinburgh Castle.

Where to verify

Use the official sources listed on each page rather than aggregators. Recheck the week before travel, because schedules, fares, and entry rules shift.
