After staying in Edinburgh for 5 days I will be renting a car to drive north (heading to Stirling first). Is it best to rent at the airport or at another location in Edinburgh? I can compare prices - I really want to know which is best for easy driving out of the city. thank you sue
Rent from Arnold Clark by booking via Celtic Legend . Take the airport bound tram to the Edinburgh Park stop ( Sighthill ) the pickup is a short walk from there . Easy drive from there to Stirling .
Rent at the airport. It’s between Edinburgh and Stirling and you won’t have to drive in the city.
When we did the drive a few years ago we stopped to see the Forth Bridge, Falkirk Wheel, and the Kelpies sculptures en route to Stirling. Stirling is only 30 miles from the airport.
Public transportation to the airport and rent there. I’ve done it both ways and while Edinburgh is not as bad as some big cities, save yourself the stress.
