Book cheap train tickets from Inverness to Edinburgh

It doesn’t need to be difficult to find cheap train tickets from Inverness to Edinburgh. If you know where to look and how to take advantage of available discounts and travel options, then saving money with Trip.com becomes second nature. Here are some of our top 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.

There are various types of Railcards available to cater to different groups of travelers, such as the 16–25 Railcard, the Family & Friends Railcard, and the Senior Railcard. For more information on Railcards and how they can help you save, visit Railcards here.

Travel in a group to save 1/3
