Transport for St Andrews University Students & families
Welcome to Scotland
Moving to university in another country is an exciting experience, but it can also be daunting for students and their families. For many years I have had the privilege of providing private transport for students attending the University of St Andrews, particularly those travelling from the United States, along with their parents, friends and visiting family members.
Whether you're arriving in Scotland for the first time, heading home for the holidays, attending graduation or planning a family visit, I provide a friendly, reliable and personal transport service you can depend on.
Airport Transfers
I offer private transfers between St Andrews from Edinburgh, Glasgow Airports
Whether you're travelling with several suitcases, golf clubs or additional luggage, you'll enjoy a comfortable journey with plenty of space and a professional meet-and-greet service available on request.
Student Transport Throughout the Year
I regularly assist students with:
Airport arrivals and departures
Semester arrivals and end-of-term departures
Christmas, Easter and summer holiday transfers
Graduation ceremonies
Family visits
Golf trips
Day tours around Scotland
Travel to hotels, train stations and other destinations
As an independent owner-driver, every journey is handled personally. You'll always know who is collecting you.
A Service Parents Can Trust
Many parents appreciate having a reliable local driver they can contact throughout their child's time at university.
I understand that arriving in a new country can be overwhelming. My aim is to make every journey relaxed, safe and straightforward, whether it's a student's first visit to Scotland or a family's annual trip to St Andrews.

⭐ What My Clients Say
"Exceptional Experience - a MUST for anyone traveling in Scotland!
I cannot recommend John Mowbray and his Executive Travel company highly enough. When our daughter attended university in St Andrews, John became someone we completely trusted and genuinely looked forward to seeing during every trip to Scotland. From airport transfers to longer drives across the country, John was reliable, professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind. As parents sending a teenage daughter overseas for school, it meant everything to know she was in such good hands. John always made her feel comfortable, safe, and cared for" - BD, New Hampshire
"The only contact you need for an amazing Scotland Experience
John is the best and most reliable driver in the country, hands down! Over the course of 5 years at the University of St Andrews, John not only was an informative and practical resource, but became a friend to my family, a familiar face to bring comfort and support throughout my time living overseas. John has truly gotten me out of tricky situations on multiple occasions, through middle of the night pickups when nobody else was there for me, and has gone above and beyond even helping me move in and out of several flats, helping me carry everything I accumulated throughout my time at university. I am so grateful to have come across his services 5 years ago" - EB, USA
