You can take a train from downtown Edinburgh to St. Andrews. I've done it twice. The train stop is a couple miles outside St. Andrews but you can get a cab from there to town. No idea why that train stop is so far from town. If I recall it is about an hour train ride from Edinburgh to St. Andrews.

I took the train. A train leaves every 30 minutes from the main Edinburgh station. It is around 20 pounds each way.

the train ticket includes the bus transfer. It is very simple. 5 min bus ride to town.

My son is going to school at University of St. Andrews. The town is a great day trip from Edinburgh. We took a cab from our hotel over and the train back. The cab over was nice as we got to see a bit of countryside and had a local guide feel. The train back was easy and dropped us within an easy walk of our hotel.

St. Andrews is an easy walk with some great sites that don't all revolve around golf. Great seafood restaurant on the coast. www.theseafoodristorante.com

Coldest thing I have ever done in July in my life. Really cool though.

St Andrews if you are a golfer.

Planning a trip in May. Lots of great info here!

I'll be there in May as well ! Looking forward to it.

I'm going in September!! Enjoying reading all these tips. So far we're trying to get to: Arthur's Seat, Dean Village, Botanic Garden, Castle, Holyrood, Royal Yacht, Nat'l Museum of Flight, and a City of the Dead ghost/history tour in 3 full days. Then on to Inverness, Skye and Stirling.

I'm going in March. I know it's not ideal timing weather wise, but open to any recommendations. Also, what is Inverness like in March?

No love for Deacon Brodie's Tavern (on the Royal Mile; across from St. Giles Cathedral)?

Legend has it that it was his tavern and that he was the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde".

A really cool pub!!!
