Give us your flight number and our team monitors it at no extra cost, with a waiting allowance after landing.

Edinburgh Airport to Ullapool is around 205 miles by road, typically 4 hours depending on traffic and time of day — one of the longer journeys we run. We price the route 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.
Remote Highlands
Ullapool sits at the edge of some of Scotland's wildest walking country, including long-distance routes further north. Tell us what you're carrying and where you're headed.
Rucksacks, walking poles and other outdoor equipment are no different to any other luggage — tell us what you’re carrying when you book and we will confirm the most suitable vehicle.
From a solo traveller to a group of eight, and from a town-centre guesthouse to a more remote lodge or cottage, tell us your exact address and we will confirm the journey directly there.
Continuing further into the Highlands, or making Ullapool one stop on a longer trip? See our private Scotland transport page for multi-stop itineraries, or our Edinburgh Airport to Inverness transfer if that’s a better fit for your route.
