The best ADIs (Approved Driving Instructors) are the ones who voluntarily invest in themselves, pushing themselves to better understand the new methods behind how people learn and absorb new information. At Caledonian, we are convinced that good driving is not a skills-driven process alone, but relies on beliefs, attitudes and a reflective understanding of risk-increasing factors.
We introduce under-17s to these concepts through our flagship Caledonian Young Driver Programme and endeavour to develop all of our instructors and coaches to teach with these principles strongly in mind. The result is an Edinburgh driving school that you can be absolutely sure provides value for money and that is dedicated to developing you and your family into great, thoughtful drivers.
By taking your driving lessons in Edinburgh, you’ll be learning on all different road types in one of the UK’s busiest cities. You’ll learn how to navigate busy roundabouts, dual carriageways and develop a keen understanding of your responsibilities. We pride ourselves in making the process of learning to drive a great experience – so let’s go.

Driving Lessons Edinburgh Reviews
“I’ve just passed my test after almost two years of driving and having had a terrible experience with my last instructor from a different company. After the awful experience with them I didn’t think I could get back on track let alone pass anytime soon. Without the help and time Graeme put in during our lessons over the last couple of months I really wouldn’t be where I am. His teaching method was amazing and really helped boost my confidence. Thank you so much to Graeme, I would recommend him ten times over!” Drew Wallce, Edinburgh
“I just recently passed my test and had been messed about by a previous instructor (not from this driving school). I’m just writing this review because I don’t think I could’ve done it without the great instructions I got from my instructor Graeme. He was spot on with everything he said and had a great teaching method. We only had a short space of time to achieve it but he did everything he could to get me passed so once again thank you mate and would recommend Graeme to anyone.” James Roche, Edinburgh
“Big thanks to Gordon at Caledonian LDT for helping me pass my test! Gordon was great to work with, always patient, and delivered instructions that were very clear and easy to follow. I would highly recommend Caledonian to any future learners.” Jenny Anderson, Edinburgh
“I began learning with Caledonian LDT last October, and have just recently passed my test first time! Karen was a brilliant instructor, very friendly and approachable, yet took the job very seriously which is great. Learning how to drive is a very nerve wracking and stressful process. But Karen made me feel very comfortable throughout the experience. In regards to price, the cost of lessons is as expected, you won’t find better anywhere else! Would highly recommend – and already have to a lot of my friends – learning to drive through this driving school, and especially with Karen! Only rubbish thing is that you have to say good bye once you pass your test! Thanks again Karen.” Ewan Barker
“After struggling to enjoy learning to drive with my previous instructor (there were tears on many occassions!) I had put off driving for years, however Graeme at Caledonian was fantastic! He was calm and precise with his instructions which made me feel so much more relaxed. If you’re looking for an instructor I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. He’s also a lovely guy!” Hannah Donaldson
