It is of paramount importance that schools choose a professional and reputable operator when booking coaches. We strongly recommend using an established coach company with "Earned Recognition" or "Guild of British Coach Operators" accreditation.
If you would like more information or are considering a school coach trip please contact us; we would be delighted to discuss your travel requirements. In addition, we can arrange a visit to our purpose-built depot in Bourton-on-the-Water, where you can step aboard a selection of our coaches and view our maintenance facilities and procedures. Alternatively, if it is more convenient we would be happy to arrange a time to meet with you at your school.
"I just wanted to say how absolutely impressed we were with Colin on yesterday’s excursion to Stratford and Broadway. He was so friendly and accommodating, and went out of his way to assist when we had a poorly child who wished to return to the bus, and again later when a phone was left on the bus. Many thanks!"
