Edinburgh → St Andrews: key facts

St Andrews from Edinburgh Airport (EDI) by private transfer: €200 per car (1–3 people) or €250 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 76 km via A92 and B939, roughly 1h 5min when traffic is light and 65–85 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the Edinburgh Airport terminal, after baggage reclaim and the customs exit, with a sign showing your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

St Andrews is a university town and the home of golf on the east coast of Fife, with a ruined cathedral, castle and long sandy beaches. The drive from the airport heads north across the Firth of Forth by the Queensferry Crossing, then follows the Fife roads towards the coast. Much of the town is medieval in layout with narrow streets, and the area around the Old Course and the cathedral is busy during golf tournaments. The centre has limited access, so the driver stops at the nearest open road.

The town's centre is a compact grid of three main streets, North Street, Market Street and South Street, running between the cathedral and the West Port gate. The Old Course lies on the west edge of the town beside the sea, next to the R&A clubhouse and the British Golf Museum. The university buildings and St Salvator's chapel are on North Street. Hotels are in the centre and near the golf links. Open Championship weeks and graduation days fill the town and restrict access.

Public transport: No direct public service from the airport. The usual route is via Edinburgh by tram or bus, then a train to Leuchars and a local bus to St Andrews.
