How to choose
the right bus
hire
service?

There are several factors to consider when hiring a bus or chartering a coach. These include the number of people wanting to travel, the origin and destination, the number of stops, and the overall duration of the trip. We cover each of these considerations in more detail below.

1. Number of People Traveling

The number of people traveling will have the greatest impact on your vehicle options. For groups of 5 to 16 passengers, minibuses are ideal. If you require transportation for slightly larger groups of 16 to 24 passengers then small buses are the best bet. For very large groups of 24 to 57 people, coaches are a great option. For groups from 57 to 500 people, multiple vehicles will be required.

The number of passengers is the biggest single factor to consider when hiring a bus, coach or minibus.

2. Origin & Destination

The origin and destination of your journey can also affect your vehicle and service options. If your group needs to travel to hard-to-reach locations or travel off-road, a specialised vehicle may be required. There are also vehicle height and weight restrictions in some areas, so a large luxury coach, for example, may not always be an option.

3. Number of Stops

If your group is going on a multi-stop journey, such as a tour, being able to easily enter and exit the vehicle should be a priority to avoid delays and stay on schedule. If there are passengers with disabilities or special requirements, there needs to be a reliable and safe way for them to embark and disembark as well.

Being able to embark and disembark the vehicle efficiently is especially important on multi-stop journeys.

4. Duration of the trip

Comfort is always very important for passengers, but even more so on longer journeys. Consider using luxury vehicle options for journeys that span several hours or days. Our luxury vehicle options provide additional modern comforts and conveniences like reclining seats, WIFI and climate control.
