Mid-size coaches (24–33 seats)

These are the go-to choice for mid-sized groups travelling together. Mid-size coaches (24–33 seats) typically include air conditioning, reclining seats, generous luggage bays and onboard power sockets — perfect for school trips, small wedding parties or corporate shuttles around Stirling and neighbouring towns like Doune and Dunblane.

• Comfortable seating with reclining options
• Air conditioning and panoramic windows
• Space for luggage and sports kit

Full-size coaches (49–70 seats)

For larger groups or long-distance tours, Full-size coaches (49–70 seats) provide the room and amenities you need: onboard restrooms on many vehicles, Wi‑Fi, extra luggage capacity and tinted windows for privacy. They’re ideal for concert transfers, race days, or when entire clubs and schools travel together from Stirling to larger venues.

• Onboard toilets on selected vehicles
• Executive seating options available
• DBS-checked drivers who know regional routes

Why choose coach hire?

Ever tried coordinating ten cars for a single pick-up? It’s stressful. Why choose coach hire? Because it removes that stress. You travel together on your schedule, enjoy a smooth, quiet ride and arrive as a group — more social, safer and often more economical than rail fares for large parties.

1. Cost-effective for groups — one vehicle, one payment.
2. Privacy and convenience — door-to-door where needed.
3. Comfort and continuity — no transfers, no waiting on platforms.

Services we cover

Safety and professionalism

Safety is non-negotiable. All vehicles are fully licensed and insured; drivers are experienced, DBS-checked and familiar with local routes — from the narrow lanes around Comrie to event traffic at Stirling venues. Our customer service team plans itineraries down to the parking and turnaround details so your day runs smoothly.

How to choose the right coach

Choosing the right vehicle is about matching size, distance and comfort to your group’s needs. How to choose the right coach? Start with group size: smaller parties often suit mid-size coaches or minibuses; full tour groups will want a 49–70 seat coach with amenities. Consider luggage, duration and whether you need onboard facilities.

• Up to 20 passengers: minibus or 24-seat coach for shorter trips
• 24–33 passengers: mid-size coach for day trips and school runs
• 49–70 passengers: full-size coach for tours, concerts and long-haul journeys
• Ask about drivers who can handle complex itineraries and multiple pickups

Callander and Stirlingshire local guide

Callander sits at the doorstep of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park — a brilliant launch point for guided days out. Think early morning pickups under the misty crags, the smell of damp heather as you drive to Bracklinn Falls, and panoramic views from elevated seats as you pass Loch Lubnaig. We also operate regularly to nearby Doune (home of Doune Castle), Dunblane’s Cathedral, the spa town of Bridge of Allan, and Stirling with its castle and business parks. That local knowledge helps us plan sensible pick-up points, avoid bottlenecks, and get you the best routes for your schedule.
