Booking & planning

Good planning makes group travel simple. Booking & planning tips from locals: pick the right minibus size (allow space for luggage), book early for bank-holiday weekends, and tell us about mobility needs so drivers can help load wheelchairs or prams.

1. Choose vehicle size — 8–12 for small groups, 15–16 for larger parties
2. Factor in luggage and equipment (sports kit, musical instruments)
3. Share a clear itinerary: pick-up times, return windows and any multi-stop routes
4. If you need several vehicles, we coordinate matching operators for the same standard of service

Compare transport options

When weighing up cars, self-drive vans, full-size coaches and chauffeur-driven minibuses, think convenience and stress-free travel. Compare transport options and you’ll often find a minibus with driver offers the best balance of cost, space and local knowledge — no parking worries, no designated driver and a professional behind the wheel.

• Vs cars: more seats and shared running costs
• Vs self-drive van: no need to handle driving or route planning
• Vs full-size coach: better manoeuvrability for Charlestown’s narrow roads and often more cost-effective for medium-sized groups
