Finding cheap train tickets from Galashiels to Edinburgh doesn't have to be a challenging task. With the right knowledge and by using available discounts and travel options, saving money with Trip.com can become effortless. Here are a few valuable tips to help you save money on your train travel.

Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%

Splitting your tickets involves buying separate tickets for different parts of your journey instead of one ticket for the entire trip. This method can often be cheaper and is perfectly legal. For instance, if you're traveling from A to B, you might find that purchasing a ticket from A to C, then C to B costs less than a direct ticket.

Traveling during off-peak hours

If your schedule allows for flexibility, opting for off-peak hours can lead to substantial cost savings. It's important to note that in most cities and large towns, off-peak hours usually start at 09:30 from Monday to Friday, while in other areas, they typically begin at 09:00.

Travel in a group to save 1/3

If you are planning a trip with a group of three to nine people, there's good news for you! You can take advantage of group travel discounts that are offered by many train companies. These discounts can save you up to 1/3 on off-peak fares, making your journey from Galashiels to Edinburgh more affordable.
