The route

Edinburgh Airport to Inverness is around 150 miles by road, typically 3 hours depending on traffic and time of day, running via the A9. We price both directions against your real addresses, confirmed before you book or as a fixed quote for longer itineraries.

For US and international visitors: this is a private car service / private ground transportation, not a shared shuttle — one driver, one vehicle, for your party only. VisitScotland’s own visitor survey found that around two-thirds of Inverness’s overnight visitors are international, and close to one in five describe their trip as a once-in-a-lifetime visit — if this is your first time in Scotland, pre-booking your transport before you fly removes one uncertainty from the trip.

A typical Inverness trip

Edinburgh Airport → your Inverness hotel, whether that is a city-centre stay or the start of your own North Coast 500 tour, with Loch Ness, Nairn and the Black Isle all a short drive away, or onward to Aviemore and the Cairngorms, or further north to Dornoch for golf, or west to Ullapool, the ferry gateway to the Outer Hebrides, then a return to Edinburgh Airport once your trip is over. Each leg is booked and priced as a real journey.

Groups and luggage

From a solo traveller to a group of eight, tell us your passenger and luggage count and we will confirm the right vehicle — Saloon, Estate, 6-seater or 8-seater.

We are travelling for business — can you handle a corporate booking?

Yes. Inverness has real, growing business traffic — life sciences and technology employers at Inverness Campus, and renewables investment around the Inverness and Cromarty Firth area. We provide a booking reference, confirmation email and a real point of contact, which most corporate travel policies need.

Can you collect us for a family holiday, with luggage for several people?

Yes. Tell us your passenger and luggage count and we will confirm the right vehicle, from a Saloon up to an 8-seater for larger families or groups.

We are starting the North Coast 500 from Inverness — can you get us there?

Yes. Inverness is the usual starting point for the NC500. We take you from Edinburgh Airport to your Inverness hotel or accommodation; the NC500 route itself is your own onward driving or touring arrangement, which we do not provide.

We are also visiting Loch Ness, Nairn or the Black Isle — can you take us there too?

Yes. These are all a short drive from Inverness. Tell us your plans and we will confirm what can be priced instantly and what needs a fixed quote — see our private Scotland transport page if your trip covers several stops.

Is flight monitoring included for our Inverness collection?

Yes, at no extra cost. Give us your flight number and our team monitors it, so your driver is timed to your actual landing rather than your original schedule. A waiting allowance after landing is included with every airport collection.

Can we book a return journey back to Edinburgh Airport?

Yes. If your outbound journey is already booked and you just need a straightforward return, tell us and we will confirm it — you do not need a complex itinerary to arrange a return transfer with us.

We are staying at a hotel outside Inverness itself — can you reach us?

Yes. Tell us your exact accommodation address when you book or enquire and we will confirm the journey directly there.
