hi, and thanks for any replies.. I’m of to Edinburgh on 20th October staying overnight. There are 7 adults going no railcards.. group of work colleagues. Our tickets are advanced with vtwc. Tickets bought are to Edinburgh, our hotel is at Edinburgh park, could I go on said ticket to Edinburgh park or would I have to purchase a separate ticket. Also not to confuse matters (sorry) I’m taking my colleagues straight away to north queensferry so to see forth rail bridge, what would be the best, cheapest ticket for this. Once back at Edinburgh park we will be purchasing the all day tram ticket £4. Thanks.

Tickets to Edinburgh are not valid to Edinburgh Park, so you'll need to get extra ones for that bit of the journey.
Check with Virgin about the possibility of purchasing a Edinburgh + Bus, this would cost £3.80 and you maybe able to purchase this as you have already bought rail tickets, this allows you to take the tram and bus all day, the ticket is only valid on the tram up to Ingelston Park and Ride, but this is fine for what you intend to do.
This ticket would also allow you to get to South Queensferry on a bus, i'm not sure if you get good views on the bridge from there, but worthing checking.

You would need to buy a ticket to get to Edinburgh Park. It may be cheaper to go via the Tram.
You could also alight at Haymarket rather than Waverley. Tickets (even advance) are interchangeable between the two.

I would do this. The tram stop is right outside the station.
