Our Fleet and Features

Explore the range of chauffeur-driven minibuses we operate around Truro. Our Fleet and Features are chosen to suit everything from short airport transfers to multi-day group holidays across Cornwall and beyond.

8–12 seater minibuses

Compact and manoeuvrable, ideal for tight city streets and short day trips. These vehicles balance passenger comfort with easy parking and efficient fuel use.

15–16 seater executive minibuses

Larger executive models include reclining seats, air conditioning, generous luggage capacity and USB charging points — comfortable for longer transfers to airports, festivals or corporate events.

Where minibuses work best

Which occasions suit a hired minibus with driver? The list is long: airport minibus transfers, weddings, sports fixtures, school trips, corporate days out, festivals and family celebrations. Where minibuses work best is often where groups value being together, saving time and avoiding the cost and stress of multiple cars.

• Airport transfers to Cornwall Airport Newquay and transfers to Penzance or Newquay
• School trips to the Eden Project, St Ives and Tate St Ives
• Weddings at country houses and venues across Cornwall
• Corporate travel between Truro’s business districts and out-of-town conference centres

Booking and planning advice

Good planning saves time and money. Booking and planning advice we give customers includes choosing the right vehicle size, allowing luggage space, and thinking about access for mobility needs.

1. Estimate passenger numbers and luggage — allow one extra seat or a larger vehicle to avoid cramped journeys.
2. Book early for busy weekends, festivals or school holiday dates; we also accommodate last-minute bookings when possible.
3. If your trip crosses county lines (for example to Plymouth or Exeter), tell us so we can plan driver shifts and route timings.
4. Coordinate multiple vehicles via one booking reference to keep drivers, timings and drop-off points synchronised.

Safety, drivers and reliability

Safety is central to our service. Safety, drivers and reliability means every driver is fully licensed, DBS-checked, and covered by commercial insurance; our vehicles undergo routine maintenance and safety inspections.

• DBS-checked professional drivers experienced in group travel across Cornwall
• 24/7 booking desk for urgent transfers and last-minute changes
• Comprehensive insurance and regular vehicle safety checks

Comparison with other transport options

How does hiring a chauffeur-driven minibus compare to other choices? Comparison with other transport options shows clear benefits for groups: cost per head is lower than taxis, more sociable than multiple cars and more flexible than a single full-size coach for short-notice, smaller groups.

• Vs cars: no one misses the drive; everyone travels together, saving parking stress and petrol costs.
• Vs self-drive vans: no licence category worries, and drivers know local roads and parking rules.
• Vs full-size coaches: minibuses are nimbler in town centres and more economical for medium-sized groups.

Pricing and value

Transparent pricing helps you plan. Pricing and value depends on vehicle size, mileage and timing — for example, airport minibus transfers to Newquay for a group of eight will often be priced per vehicle with clear luggage allowances and driver waiting times included.
