Book a private hire car in Edinburgh

  • Airport service: You can, of course, book a private hire taxi with SIXT to or from Edinburgh Airport. If you are flying into Edinburgh, either at the start or end of your holiday, your minicab driver will be waiting for you inside the arrivals area of the terminal to collect you. For flights out of Edinburgh, we can pick you up anywhere in and around the city. We have vehicles available for up to 6 passengers, if you are travelling as a family.
  • Events in Edinburgh: For any event in the city, SIXT can provide a car to comfortably get you there and back. For special events like weddings and proms, why not choose our business or first class option? A professional chauffeur will get you to and from the venue in a stylish black car. 
  • Hourly bookings: Rather than booking a journey from one location to another in Edinburgh, you also have the option of booking for a number of hours at a time. Your driver and car will then always be available for the time you have chosen to get you where you need to be - useful if you have a number of appointments throughout the day.

Cost-effective Travel

Cost-effective Travel

We offer a low-cost taxi alternative for spontaneous or pre-booked rides! Forget the expense of overpriced parking fees with drop-off at the terminal, and avoid the usual taxi fares that depend on traffic and distance thanks to our fixed rates. For a larger group, book one of our minivan options and share the cost with other passengers, providing a cheaper and more comfortable journey without having to take all your luggage onto public transport.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR EDINBURGH PRIVATE HIRE CARS

Is there a surcharge for a driver hire located outside of the city?

Our private car hire services are not restricted to the city itself and we're happy to help you get between Edinburgh and neighbouring cities or local towns and villages such as Linlithgow and St. Andrews. As long as your pick-up address is in Edinburgh we offer great rates to get you to where you want to go efficiently and safely.

Are pets allowed in SIXT driver-hire cars?

Our rides are happy to accommodate pets with you on your journey. We ask that you inform your driver during the booking process and that during the ride, seats are covered or your pet is in a carrier.

Do you provide child car seats or booster seats?

Yes! Simply let us know how many car seats you need on the passenger details screen and alleviate some of the stress associated when travelling with minors. We look to provide a personalised service for all customer needs.
