Family Run Business with Family Values
We organise Personal Service. We recognize every client is different. Whether you’re a school-teacher planning a school trip excursion, a company director organizing a corporate event, or a chap organizing a day trip to the races, you all have different wants, needs and expectations. We meet these expectations by gathering all the required information from you. These are the personal details of the trip, not just the transport mechanics of the journey. We also use a communication system called iMA to help us communicate with you more effectively. This helps us drive stress and tension out of the workplace and improve harmony and cooperation. (ima-bellevuecoach.com). Our goal is to exceed your expectations time after time.

Our drivers telephone clients the day before the trip and double check everything. Failing to plan is planning to fail. A well-planned trip is a successful trip.
Aftersales - We carry out an aftersales service to ensure your service improves all the time. This is a small brochure with a multitude of questions rating everything from top to bottom of our service.
Wheelchair Accessible DDA & PSVAR Compliant
Most of our fleet is DDA PSVAR compliant.
We have been supplying wheelchair accessible coaches for the last 15 years long before any regulatory compliance came in. We did this so any social groups who have passengers utilising wheelchairs can go together on a day trip excursion. Passengers in a wheelchair would simply enter the vehicle via a lift with our driver, and the wheelchair would be simply strapped down to the vehicles floor in an allocated designated space. Our drivers are trained in ensuring all accessible wheelchair passengers feel inclusive of the trip and feel so from start to finish.
On scheduled services like school contracts the following requirements are in place:
- space for a wheelchair, with suitable safety provisions, depending on whether the wheelchair is carried facing forwards or backwards
- A boarding device to enable wheelchair users to get on and off vehicles
- priority seats for disabled passengers
- criteria for steps
- handrails to assist disabled people
- visual contrast of features like handrails and steps to help partially sighted people
- easy-to-use bell pushes throughout the vehicle
- audible and visible signals to stop a vehicle or to request a boarding device
- external equipment to display the correct route and destination
We believe every passenger has a right to experience an enjoyable journey regardless of any disability.
