Long Distance Route

The Route

The Newcastle to Edinburgh distance is roughly 120 miles with most of the way being along the A1 road near the Northumberland coast before crossing the border at Berwick. It’s one of the more scenic of our long distance chauffeur routes, and that matters here, since there is an alternative and it’s a great one.

Booking is divided into business travel to the Scottish capital and leisure trips for which the journey itself is the destination, making stops at Alnwick, Bamburgh, or Berwick en route.

Newcastle to Edinburgh

Autofusion fleet in detail

Against the train

It's worth saying plainly: the train wins on speed here. East Coast services between Newcastle and Edinburgh are direct, frequent and faster than driving.

So the case for the car isn't speed - it's everything else. Pick-up from home instead of a taxi to Central Station, no luggage transfer at the far end, four people travelling on one fare instead of four tickets, and the freedom to stop wherever you like along the way. Start or finish outside either city centre, and the door-to-door comparison closes further still.

The train only really wins a narrow contest: one traveller, centre to centre, with just a laptop bag. Every other comparison favours the car, and plenty of journeys on this route fall into exactly those categories.

Booking this route

Enter the pickup address, destination address, the date, and the time of your travel. In case you will be taking a flight on either side, please enter the flight number as well. Compare chauffeur service in Newcastle for a day instead of a single trip, chauffeur service in Edinburgh for the Scottish end, and Newcastle to Leeds transfers for the trip south.

What is included?

Any tolls on the route are taken into account, as is any Tyneside clean air zone charge on the Newcastle departure, though partner vehicles meet its standard.

There are no road tolls in Scotland, and Edinburgh's low emission zone uses penalties rather than a daily charge; partner vehicles meet its standard too.

Terms and conditions of cancellation and amendments are determined by each partner separately and stated for each particular offer.

Booked a Lamborghini Huracan for a weekend in London through Autofusion and the whole process was effortless. Being able to compare supercar hire prices across providers in one place saved me a fortune. Instant booking meant no waiting around for quotes. The luxury car hire selection is genuinely the best I have found in the UK.

Used Autofusion to find a car for our wedding in Manchester and could not be happier. I looked through a few options, found a stunning Rolls Royce Phantom, and booked it the same day. So much easier than ringing round, and the price beat going direct.

I hire a supercar fairly often and Autofusion has become my go to. Comparing what is available around Birmingham is really easy and I always find a good price. Booked a Ferrari 488 Spider in a couple of minutes. Cannot fault it.

Autofusion is my first stop whenever I need something special in London. It shows real prices from different providers, so I always get a good deal. Hired a Bentley Continental GT and the whole thing was smooth from start to finish.
