How to book cheap train tickets from Ipswich to Edinburgh (Waverley)

Travelling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Ipswich to Edinburgh (Waverley) during off-peak hours.

Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%

Splitting tickets is a perfectly legal practice that involves purchasing separate, cheaper tickets for different segments of your journey on the same train instead of a single ticket for the entire trip.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%

By planning your trip from Ipswich to Edinburgh (Waverley) ahead of time and booking your tickets early, you can potentially save up to 61% on your travel expenses.

Group travels to save 1/3
