Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We’ve got answers! Whether you’re curious about how many friends can squeeze into a Mini, where we’ll pick you up, or what happens if it rains sideways (it’s Scotland—it might), this is the place to find out.
At Mini Mack Tours, we like to keep things simple, fun, and flexible—just like our tours. Scroll through the FAQs below to learn everything you need to know before hitting the road with us. And if you don’t see your question here, give us a shout—we’re always happy to help.
Q: How many people can travel in one Mini?
Up to 3. If there are more than 3 people in your group then you will travel in more than one mini.
Q: I need picked up outside the city centre, is there a surcharge?
Yes. Depending on where you need picked up from, we will get in touch directly to confirm the surcharge price.
Q: Where do you pick up from?
Anywhere in Edinburgh city centre.
Q: Can you pick us up directly from our hotel?
Yes, and at no extra cost, as long as it is in or around the centre of Edinburgh just pop the address of the hotel into the notes section of the booking form.
Q: How much do you charge?
Go to our tour page for morning, afternoon and various other tour option prices.
Q: How many Minis do you have?
Two!
Q: Will I fit in a Mini?
Probably. Our Cars are small, but deceptively roomy inside. Generally speaking anyone under 6ft will be fine, for passengers over 6ft we are more than happy to stop as often as you like to stretch your legs and take in the gems of Edinburgh.
Q: Will we be able to stop for photos?
Yes regularly! Just give us a shout and we will pull over as and when it is safe to do so.
Q: When is the traffic at its busiest?
7.30 am – 9.30am and 5 pm – 7pm Monday to Friday, Saturday and Sunday less volume.
Q: How is the road surface in Edinburgh?
Not the best! Our roads are fairly rutted and bumpy believe it or not. Added with the cobbles it can make for a bumpy ride. We stop regularly enough though and with the great views that should compensate for some of the Bumpy roads.
Q: Do you cater for special dietary needs?
Yes. We can cater to anyone who is vegan/vegetarian or gluten free.
Q: What if the weather is particularly bad on my tour day?
Unless it is armageddon, your tour will be ready to go! :)
