How to book cheap train tickets from Basingstoke to Edinburgh
Group travel deals
Travelling with a group of 3 to 9 people? Most train companies offer group discounts, allowing you to save up to 1/3 on standard fares. This makes journeys from Basingstoke to Edinburgh more budget-friendly for families, friends, or colleagues travelling together.
Book in advance
Booking Advance tickets at least 1 week before departure can reduce your fare by up to 61% on routes from Basingstoke to Edinburgh. Advance fares are usually released 12 weeks prior to travel and exclude Anytime fares, with savings depending on route availability.
Travel during Off-Peak train times
We'd strongly suggest avoiding rush hour crowds by travelling on Off-Peak services, often leading to a cheaper and more peaceful journey. Exact timings vary between providers, but in general, skip travelling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. Off-Peak rates are available all day on weekends and bank holidays.
Split Tickets discount
It may sound odd, but splitting your journey into smaller segments by purchasing separate, cheaper tickets can often lead to significant savings, all while you remain in the same seat for the entire trip. The best part? Trip.com handles these splits for you, meaning you don't have to do any painstaking planning.
