Discover the Enchantment of Mercat Tours in Edinburgh

Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car from any location in Selkirkshire, take the A7 road towards Edinburgh. Continue on the A7 for approximately 30 miles until you reach the outskirts of Edinburgh. Follow the signs for the city center and merge onto the A720 (City Bypass). Take the exit towards A1 and merge onto the A1. Follow signs for the city center until you reach the junction with the A900. Continue straight onto the A900, which will lead you into the heart of Edinburgh. From there, follow the signs to the Old Town. Mercat Tours is located at 28 Blair St, which is accessible from the Royal Mile. Look for parking options nearby, as there may be street parking available but be aware of any parking fees.

The bus service (e.g., Stagecoach or Borders Buses) runs frequently and takes about 1 hour to reach Edinburgh. Alternatively, you can take a train from Selkirk Station to Edinburgh Waverley Station. Once you arrive at Waverley Station, exit the station and walk towards the Royal Mile. Head up the hill on North Bridge, then turn left onto the Royal Mile. Continue walking until you reach Blair Street. Mercat Tours is located at 28 Blair St. You may need to check for bus or train fares, which generally range from £5 to £10 depending on the service.
