Most of the Scots live in the central part of Scotland, spreading from Glazgow to Edinburgh. One can access by bus or train to the majority of places and attractions in the west of Scotland. Otherwise, in the south or north public traffic is еncountered more rarely, especially in the Highlands and Islands.
Scotland's railways are most developed in the middle, but in the Highlands there are only several lines. owever to get connected to the west coast islands there are many ferry ports.
Long distance buses are a part of Scotland's most towns and cities' everyday life. Scottish Citylink is a well-known operator of these buses, known as coaches. Traveling by train is more expensive than by coaches, that's why the former are so popular in Scotland.
To save your time or to be more flexible you'll need your own car. An international driving permit is required together with your national driving licence. You can get an international driving permit in your country at a small cost.
There are more than 60 inhabited islands in Scotland, and to reach them by ferry it is necessary to be booked in advance.
Glasgow, Glasgow Prestwick, Edinburgh and Aberdeen are the main airports of Scotland. Smaller airports are available on the islands. British Airways or Loganair are the main air companies.
