How Much Does It Cost To Hire A Coach With A Driver?

As the public transport sector grapples with the challenging tides of inflation, there is a rising trend of private coach hire as shared communal transportation. Coach hire has proven to be a highly cost-friendly transportation solution, allowing all group members to share a single vehicle. This also raises the question of how much the coach costs and if it is much cheaper compared to public transport.

If you are travelling locally with a trip distance of 45 miles, you can hire a one-way 33-seater coach at a starting rate of £420. However, the final quote depends on multiple factors, including the miles travelled, trip type, and peak tourism or specific events.

You can refer to our detailed table below to get an overview of the average prices for a coach hire.

What Factors Influence The Final Cost Of A Coach Hire?

Although we always offer fixed prices calculated over the miles of your exclusive journey, multiple factors are prone to increase the final price of your coach hire. Rest assured, you will receive an upfront quote to allow you to make a mindful decision. 

Here are the different factors that may affect the prices in your quote:

  1. Time Of Reserving A Coach

As a general rule of thumb, always book your coach at least a week in advance. This is because a last-minute hire may be subject to a coach's availability or vehicle maintenance. Apart from the associated factors, there is not a major difference in the price increase compared to our aforementioned price overview.

  1. Peak Season

As said earlier, a tourism peak season has a greater influence on the final price of your coach hire. The higher demand for coach hires often increases the rate by up to 20%. Tip: One of the best ways to avoid this price increase is by booking your coach a few weeks in advance.

  1. Coach Size

Generally, coach size also directly affects the final quote. As mentioned in the price tables, there is a notable increase in the prices with the coach size. This is because the larger coaches also come with the factors of higher fuel consumption and amenities utilisation. Plus, if you are seeking a specific brand of coach, there is a higher insurance cost associated with the vehicle and added responsibility on the driver.

  1. Event Hire

The final prices for the private coach are also subject to change if you are hiring for a local festival with no accessible parking space or dead mileage. For instance, if you are travelling out of the city for a one-way trip, there is a 40-50% price increase to cover the cost of the dead mileage to find the parking spot or return to the maintenance site.

  1. Contract Hires

Long-term contract hires are automatically set at higher prices as these services require ongoing vehicle maintenance and route customisation. You can easily share your details with our support team to receive a tailored quote suited for your coach hire needs on a contract basis.

Note: Considering the exclusive requirements of every journey, factors like weekend or last-minute hires may incur higher prices. Thanks to the upfront quotation system, you will not have to worry about paying higher prices at the last moment of your trip. We recommend booking ahead of time to get a personalised quote with a breakdown of the cost for services included in your coach hire.
