You can take a train from downtown Edinburgh to St. Andrews. I've done it twice. The train stop is a couple miles outside St. Andrews but you can get a cab from there to town. No idea why that train stop is so far from town. If I recall it is about an hour train ride from Edinburgh to St. Andrews.

In reply to lazuras_dc I took the train. A train leaves every 30 minutes from the main Edinburgh station. It is around 20 pounds each way.

In reply to Texmid the train ticket includes the bus transfer. It is very simple. 5 min bus ride to town.

My son is going to school at University of St. Andrews. The town is a great day trip from Edinburgh. We took a cab from our hotel over and the train back. The cab over was nice as we got to see a bit of countryside and had a local guide feel. The train back was easy and dropped us within an easy walk of our hotel.

St. Andrews is an easy walk with some great sites that don't all revolve around golf. Great seafood restaurant on the coast. www.theseafoodristorante.com
