Groups travel from Edinburgh to Glasgow for gigs at the OVO Hydro and the SEC, football at Hampden, Celtic Park and Ibrox, conferences, and nights out in the Merchant City. The drive along the M8 is about 50 miles and takes about 1 hour 20 minutes in normal traffic.
A minibus keeps everyone together and means nobody has to drive or worry about the last train home.

These are "from" prices for Edinburgh to Glasgow with a weekday daytime pick-up, worked out from our current rates and updated automatically when they change. The exact price depends on your date, time, group size and exact addresses, and the booking form shows it before you pay. Same-day return prices allow for the driver waiting about 5 hours at Glasgow.
Pick-up tips
We can collect from a home address, a hotel or a meeting point such as a pub. After a big concert or match, the streets next to the venue are busy and often closed, so agree a pick-up point a short walk away. The driver will confirm it with you on the day.
Luggage and vehicle sizes
Most groups going to an event travel light. A 16-seat minibus is the most popular size for a night out, and 33 or 53-seat coaches suit clubs, schools and work outings.
Distances and driving times on this page are approximate road estimates. Traffic, roadworks and your exact addresses change them.
Questions about this trip
