A taxi is the best way for sure. Taxis are much cheaper in Edinburgh than London, so it won't cost you that much at all.

Hi Mary, It does not really matter which way you choose to travel!! a taxi is approx £15. to £20.00. There is both a taxi rank and bus stance right outside the arrivals so you can get either and they both use the bus lanes into Haymarket, depending on your time of arrival the time to get there should be between 20 and 35 minutes, there is also a dedicated taxi office in the airport so no need to stress when getting there.. have a nice break.

FYI, I wouldn't suggest a bus in your case. It's too much of a hassle with four kids and luggae, plus you need exact change!
