For those who choose the "First class" option at the time of booking, you will be served refreshments at your seat during the train journey. The journey will swoop along Britain's scenic east coast boasting precious views of the country. You will also get a handy Edinburgh map to make navigating the city a little easier.
Once there, enjoy a trip on the iconic Open Top Bus Tour to see the Scottish capital from a new perspective and take in all the major sights!
