Does anyone know how much it costs for a single return to Aberdeen from Thurso on Saturday?

Thanks

You could be in for a long journey as don't think there are any direct buses. You'll have at least one change in Perth. Have a look at this site for fares etc.

I only found it recently and it's very useful.

I think Ill have what he`s been drinking!!

Badger,
The Thurso Bus stops at Inverness then you change into an Aberdeen bound bus going along the A96 not going anywhere near Perth. I generally get the bus from Wick to Inverness, then train acrosss to Aberdeen which is usually 54£ return fare

That's interesting. I was always told there was no direct bus from Inverness to Aberdeen and that site confirmed it so will have to look again. BigG asked for bus fares so I didn't look at trains but everything is on transportdirect. Which service does a direct route?

I did Inverness to Banff a wee while ago. That uses the Aberdeen route initially. I noted that Elgin is the hub there. There seemed to be a lot of Aberdeen buses. No idea of price as I've a bus pass.
