Coach travel is zero-rated.
It is very unusual for a coach to break down on the road. All our vehicles are well maintained, in accordance with manufacturers’ recommendations. Our operators have formal safety inspections every six weeks. Defects found are put right. In the rare event a vehicle breaks down, we can immediately bring in another vehicle.
No. We recommend that you take out your own travel insurance to suit your needs if the journey is cancelled. However you are insured with full liability whilst on the road in our vehicles.
We do not judge how easily accessible our coaches are as everyone is different. We do take care when choosing vehicles to ensure that they can lower the entrance steps and have relatively wide and shallow steps with plenty of handrails. If you have concerns, please talk to us and we will be pleased to help. As many of our customers have restricted mobility, patience and the offer of assistance is often all that is needed.
No job is too small, we can help with groups from 7,16,24,33,49 and large double-decker coaches for up to 100 people.
Yes. We like to stop every two to three hours, and we must comply with Drivers’ Hours and Working Time Directive legislation with regard to stops.
Yes, usually 25-50% with order.
Cash/Bacs/Cheque/Credit or Debit Card.
We have over 20 years’ experience of driving coaches, planning and delivering days out and tour itineraries.
As a National coach-booking agent, working with selected quality coach companies throughout the UK, we book large numbers of coaches through our partners. For this reason we are able to secure preferential rates and are therefore usually able to offer highly competitive rates. In most cases our prices will be better than approaching the Coach operator direct. Whatever your coach travel requirements, Investravel can help.

We were very pleased with the service we received. Our home is not easy to find but the driver had left plenty of time to follow our instructions when he phoned for help. He was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely use and recommend this company again especially for groups of 6 and above.

My family were going out to Christmas dinner on Christmas Day. The price was fantastic to take 10 of us out including multiple pick up and drop offs. The driver Atif was extremely pleasant, prompt and accommodating. Highly recommend and will definitely use them again. Kind Regards, Stephanie International Business Manager.
