Some of you out there may never have been on coach holidays before, preferring to travel by car, rail, cruise ship or plane. With this in mind, we thought it’d be a great idea to show you all the advantages of coach travel and why you should consider a coach holiday for your next break, instead of opting for your usual mode of transport.
Here’s why…
• Coach holidays offer great value for money and usually come as a package and include all travel, hotel accommodation, meals, entertainment and a variety of excursions so you can explore the resort.
• The choice of coach holidays available to you are endless whether you wish to explore the UK, Ireland, Europe and Worldwide – whether you want to trek the Inca Trail, go whale watching in Antarctica or catch a West End show, there’s an escorted tour for everyone.
• Porterage is usually included in the cost of the tour so you won’t have to carry your bags to the hotel room.
• By taking coach holidays, you’ll avoid renting a car or having to pay big-city parking fees.
2. Convenience
• The best way to get a whistle-stop tour of many of the world’s finest cities.
• The majority of tour operators will pick you up and return you to your front door as part of the holiday package so you won’t have to get yourselves to a designated pick-up point.
• See your driver as though he was your personal chauffeur. You won’t get lost trying to find your way or lose your luggage
3. Comfortable & relaxing
• The coaches that are used during the tour are far from rusty old bangers but modern air-conditioned vehicles meeting the highest of safety standards and come with plenty of added features to include: comfortable reclining seats, head rests, DVD player, TV, tea and coffee making facilities, toilet facilities, plenty of leg room and much more.
• Coaches are seven times safer than travelling by car.
• You also avoid the stress of driving in unfamiliar places – leaving this to the coach driver to handle instead whilst you sit back, relax and take in the surroundings.
4. The Green Factor
• Coach travel is much more friendlier to the environment and is six times less pollutant than a plane.
• The ability of moving a high number of people in a single vehicle brings lower emissions per passenger and reduced fossil fuel usage.
• The nearer to home you holiday, the smaller your carbon footprint will be.
