Quality Service Taking The Stress Away
Used Coach Hire to get our guests to our wedding venue. Easy to contact we were assigned a rep (Dan) who accommodated the list we provided and came up with the best solution. On the day Tom drove our guests and negotiated some tricky country roads he waited at the venue and returned the guests safely at the end of the day.
I would definitely use this company again. Good price and good service.

I would not use this organisation again…
I would not use this organisation again as they have no integrity or morals. Completely extorted a coach full of passages in a vulnerable situation soley for profit. Could have done the right think but decide money is more important.

Always quick to help, even at short notice
We’ve used Coach Hire Comparison a number of times and they’ve always been really helpful. On a few occasions, plans have changed unexpectedly and we’ve needed support quickly, and they’ve always done their best to get something sorted for us.
Lewis Wissett is always quick to respond and really helpful, which makes a big difference when we’re coordinating transport for a large team.
Would definitely recommend them.

Brilliant from start to finish
Brilliant from start to finish. The booking was easy, very friendly staff.
Our driver Yasir was brilliant throughout the day. He made sure we were on time and kept us informed of where he has parked to pick us up. It was a very hot day and the air conditioning on the mini bus was brilliant.
Thank you so very we will definitely use the service again and recommend to others.

The driver was just lovely
The booking process was simple and efficient. The driver, Usman Abbasi, was just lovely. He engaged really well with our passengers, who were members of an inclusive theatre group. They liked him so much they invited him to watch their show!

A Reliable Partner We Can Always Count On
We've worked with this coach company on numerous school trips over the years, and they have consistently delivered an excellent service. They are one of our most trusted transport partners, and we know we can rely on them to provide a professional and dependable service every time.
A special mention has to go to Lewis, who is fantastic to work with. He is always friendly, responsive, and proactive, making the booking process as smooth as possible. Communication is excellent throughout, and nothing ever seems too much trouble. He understands the importance of our trips and always goes above and beyond to ensure everything runs seamlessly.
What really sets this company apart is their willingness to help in difficult situations. On more than one occasion, we've found ourselves needing coaches at very short notice due to unexpected changes, and Lewis and the team have worked incredibly hard to source vehicles and keep our trips running. Their flexibility, dedication, and "can-do" attitude have saved us from some very challenging situations.
The drivers are always professional, punctual, and courteous, and our schools regularly comment on the high standard of service they receive. It's reassuring to work with a company that genuinely cares about its customers and consistently delivers on its promises.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, customer-focused coach provider. They are a valued partner to our business, and Lewis and the wider team thoroughly deserve recognition for the outstanding service they provide.

We're especially pleased we've been able to help when plans have changed at short notice. We know how important it is to keep school trips running smoothly, so it's great to hear our team has been able to make a difference when you've needed us most.
Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and we look forward to continuing to support you and your schools for many more trips to come.

Reply from Coach Hire Comparison
We're sorry to hear you were disappointed with the outcome of your cancellation.
When an event is cancelled by a third party, our cancellation terms still apply as they relate to the transport service that was booked and confirmed. These terms are outlined during the booking process and are in line with standard industry practice.
While we appreciate this wasn't the outcome you were hoping for, we always aim to be clear and transparent about our terms and conditions so customers know exactly where they stand when booking with us.
Kind regards,

Reliable, good price, user friendly
Our group is from Canada and new to UK. We had three services from Coach Hire Comparison on July 7, 9 and 15.
Before arriving, the website is very user friendly and price is very transparent. When we had questions, we can use WhatsApp to communicate with CHC and CHC is very responsive. We felt very reliable to the transportation services in a new country. Thanks so much, CAST Youth Orchestra

We recently hired a minibus
We recently hired a minibus, from this company, and while I wouldn’t describe the first vehicle as truly executive standard, the service from our driver, Barry, more than made up for it.
Barry was absolutely excellent from start to finish. He arrived on time, got us to our venue promptly, and was there ready for our pick-up as agreed. He was more than happy to stop for bathroom breaks when needed and even accommodated extra drop-offs on the way home without any fuss.
Nothing was too much trouble, and Barry’s friendly, cheerful attitude made the whole journey enjoyable. He’s a real credit to the company. Thank you, Barry!

Good experience booking with CHC
Good experience booking with CHC. The drivers at A1 Minibus and Coach LTD were brilliant, incredibly understanding and patient with our group of 50 students. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Few nags with CHC, driver details didn’t show up 24 hours before our scheduled booking *which the site said it would* this made me feel a little anxious so had to double/triple check with CHC that everything was in order and that a driver had in fact been allocated to our booking - apart from that, everything went smoothly and the team at CHC were responsive and attentive.

My main concern was that the 2 minibuses I had hired would arrive at the venue in good time to pick us up, so that there would be no anxiety about when they would turn up. This they did splendidly, arriving with 45 minutes in hand. This was a great relief, and thereafter the drivers were very friendly and professional. The minibuses were very good quality.
