Minibus Tours

 Here are some tips for hiring a minibus or coach for minibus tours:

  •  Consider group size and luggage when deciding what size vehicle you need. Make sure to get an accurate count of passengers and bags before booking. Minibuses typically seat 8–16 people.

 

  •  Book early, especially for peak seasons. Popular times of year like summer can book up far in advance. Give yourself several months’ notice if possible.

 

  •  Compare multiple companies on price, vehicle types, amenities, reviews, etc. Look at factors like the age of the vehicles and safety records.

 

  •  Understand what is/isn’t included in the quote upfront. Things like fuel costs, parking fees, and driver accommodation for multi-day trips may be additional.

 

  •  Inquire about driver background, training and experience, especially for longer tours. An experienced driver can greatly enhance the experience.

 

  •  Ask about the customizable route and itinerary options. Some companies offer flexible tour planning where you choose the destinations and schedule.

 

  •  Read all policies carefully regarding deposits, damages, cancellations, etc. Know what fees apply if your group changes size or needs to cancel.

 

  •  Request a contract outlining dates, costs, vehicle details, destinations, services, and policies in writing before putting down a deposit.

 

  •  Consider extras like luxury coaches with bathrooms, entertainment systems, and more for a higher-end tour experience.

 

  • The right minibus and driver can make touring safe, smooth and memorable. Allowing plenty of planning time helps ensure you get an ideal fit for your next group outing.
