About Edinburgh
Edinburgh, the energetic capital of Scotland, is a perfect blend of modern life with a historical past. Rising majestically on a volcanic rock, the famous Edinburgh Castle provides amazing views of the city and a wealth of historical riches like the Scottish Crown Jewels and the fable Stone of Destiny.
With its meandering lanes and atmospheric cobblestone streets, the medieval Old Town of the city deftly contrasts the majestic grandeur of the Georgian New Town. Both districts provide a magnificent blend of architecture and history and are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Connecting the castle to the royal Palace of Holyroodhouse, which was the Queen's official Scottish residence, saunter down the Royal Mile, a vibrant stretch bursting with quirky stores, cozy pubs, and historical treasures.
Edinburgh is a heaven for festival enthusiasts; in August, it hosts the world-class Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the biggest cultural extravaganza on Earth. The city becomes a cultural carnival brimming with avant-garde performances and comedy shows. Walk across the lush Princes Street Gardens or climb Arthur's Seat, an extinct volcano with breathtaking city views, for a quiet getaway.
Edinburgh appeals to each visitor with its historical legacy and artistic flair, as well as its charming Scottish character. This city provides an amazing experience at every turn, whether your interests are in historical sites, the vibrant arts scene, or just absorbing the local way of life in the capital city of Scotland.

Watch out for train delays and strikes
Remember that strikes and delays on trains might throw off your plans. Review the rail schedules and the news for any updates before you head off.

Excellente option de transfert.
âJâai utilisĂ© ce service pour un transfert de Split, en Croatie, Ă Perast, au MontĂ©nĂ©gro. Mon expĂ©rience a Ă©tĂ© exceptionnelle. Mon chauffeur, Bojan, Ă©tait serviable, informatif et a veillĂ© Ă ce que mon voyage soit confortable et agrĂ©able. Je recommande vivement ce service.â
CâĂ©tait un voyage fantastique.
âNous avons Ă©tĂ© extrĂȘmement satisfaits de la qualitĂ© du service que nous avons reçu de Day Trip. Nous avons effectuĂ© deux trajets avec Day Trip : le 31 aoĂ»t dâAthĂšnes Ă Lefkada et le 7 septembre de Lefkada Ă AthĂšnes. Les deux trajets comprenaient des arrĂȘts sur des sites pittoresques en GrĂšce. Les deux chauffeurs Ă©taient excellents et accommodants. Toutefois, nous aimerions particuliĂšrement remercier Panos Peppas, qui a Ă©tĂ© notre chauffeur de Lefkada Ă AthĂšnes. Panos a Ă©tĂ© incroyablement gentil et agrĂ©able, et a offert un service client exceptionnel, qui comprenait la gestion de tous nos bagages, la fourniture dâeaux fraĂźches tout au long du voyage, de barres protĂ©inĂ©es, de documents imprimĂ©s sur le canal de Corinthe (lâun des arrĂȘts pittoresques), la recherche et la transmission des informations sur le terminal et la porte de notre vol de retour, ainsi que la remise dâune recette de tzatziki.â
La meilleure société de transport partout
âNous adorons vraiment cette entreprise et lâavons utilisĂ©e de nombreuses fois au fil des ans pour aller dâun point A Ă un point B sans les tracas de louer une voiture nous-mĂȘmes. Des chauffeurs excellents Ă chaque fois. Efficaces et professionnels. Cela vaut chaque centime, et nous recommandons sincĂšrement Day Trip Ă tout le monde. Ses 5 Ă©toiles sont amplement mĂ©ritĂ©es.â
Excellente expérience de voyage
âNous avons voyagĂ© de Nuremberg Ă Munich dans une belle Audi. Le chauffeur est venu nous chercher Ă notre hĂŽtel exactement Ă lâheure demandĂ©e. Il nous a conduits Ă Munich avec beaucoup dâavance pour notre prochaine visite. Le chauffeur a veillĂ© Ă ce que nous soyons Ă lâaise.â
Transport sûr et à prix raisonnable
âGonzalo de Daytrip Ă©tait notre chauffeur et il Ă©tait absolument incroyable. Il a tout fait pour nous retrouver car notre service mobile ne fonctionnait pas trĂšs bien. Il a attendu patiemment notre arrivĂ©e dans le hall afin de nous conduire du Tulum Dreams Resort Ă notre autre hĂŽtel Ă CancĂșn, Ă une heure et demie de route prĂšs de lâaĂ©roport, avant notre vol de retour. Il Ă©tait poli, respectueux et aimable. Il sâest assurĂ© que nous Ă©tions Ă lâaise pendant tout le trajet. Rapide et efficace. Je recommande cette entreprise, car trouver un trajet aller simple de Tulum Ă CancĂșn nâest ni facile ni bon marchĂ©, et cette entreprise offre un excellent service Ă un bon prix. Je les rĂ©utiliserai sans aucun doute lorsque je serai dans la rĂ©gion de CancĂșn/Tulum. Merci, DayTrip et Gonzalo.â
âMarianna est venue nous chercher pour nous conduire de HĂ©raklion Ă La CanĂ©e. Le temps Ă©tait terrible et, Ă cause de cela, Marianna est arrivĂ©e avec quelques minutes de retard. Elle mâa contactĂ© pour mâen informer. Marianna vit Ă La CanĂ©e et a rendu notre trajet trĂšs intĂ©ressant en nous parlant des choses locales Ă faire et Ă voir lĂ -bas. Marianna conduit prudemment, et nous nous sommes tous sentis Ă lâaise avec sa vitesse et sa conduite sous une pluie battante. Câest une personne charmante qui parle couramment anglais. Nous recommandons vivement Daytrip, et si vous ĂȘtes Ă HĂ©raklion ou Ă La CanĂ©e, assurez-vous de demander Marianna.â
Excellent chauffeur en Ăgypte
âJ'ai utilisĂ© le service pour aller de Louxor Ă Hurghada, en Ăgypte. Ahmed H Ă©tait notre chauffeur et il Ă©tait parfait. La voiture Ă©tait neuve, propre, il avait de l'eau et des collations pour nous, et il a pris en compte nos arrĂȘts. Excellent service de sa part, je le recommande.â
Trajets confortables et sécurisés au Mexique
âNous avons utilisĂ© Daytrip pour deux trajets au Mexique, et les deux Ă©taient excellents. TrĂšs confortables, et nous sommes arrivĂ©s Ă chaque destination Ă un moment parfait. Les deux chauffeurs Ă©taient incroyables, et nous nous sommes sentis trĂšs en sĂ©curitĂ©. Lâun de nos chauffeurs, Miguel, a Ă©galement mis la meilleure musique ! Nous utiliserons certainement Daytrip lors de notre prochain voyage au Mexique.â
Un excellent moyen de voyager et de voir des sites en chemin
âNous ne savions pas Ă quoi nous attendre avec ce voyage et avons rĂ©servĂ© depuis l'Australie. Nous cherchions initialement un moyen facile de voyager de Grenade Ă Malaga. Nous avons dĂ©cidĂ© de ne pas perdre l'opportunitĂ© de voir quelque chose en plus en chemin. Miguel a certainement dĂ©passĂ© nos attentes. Son anglais Ă©tait excellent (malheureusement, nous parlons trĂšs peu espagnol), et il Ă©tait trĂšs amical et serviable. Nous avons beaucoup apprĂ©ciĂ© entendre parler des rĂ©gions que nous traversions et aussi discuter de certaines coutumes locales. Miguel nous a emmenĂ©s Ă Antequera comme prĂ©vu et s'est assurĂ© que nous puissions facilement obtenir nos billets pour les attractions sans nous sentir pressĂ©s. Nous avons Ă©tĂ© pris en charge et dĂ©posĂ©s ponctuellement et avons vraiment apprĂ©ciĂ© notre voyage. Nous espĂ©rons retourner en Espagne et pouvoir utiliser ce service Ă nouveau un jour.â
âNous avons utilisĂ© le service deux fois alors que nous Ă©tions en ThaĂŻlande. Service client extrĂȘmement rapide et efficace. Le meilleur tarif proposĂ© Ă Chiang Mai pour les voyages. Chauffeurs polis, ponctuels, professionnels et anglophones. VĂ©hicules propres et confortables. Ătant un visiteur rĂ©gulier de la ThaĂŻlande, c'Ă©tait de loin le meilleur service. TrĂšs satisfait de l'entreprise. J'espĂšre qu'elle maintiendra l'excellence du service qui nous a Ă©tĂ© rendu.â
