"We hired a coach for our wedding to take the guests the the venues (as we had a few and they were in the middle of nowhere!!) and Barnes were amazing! Everyone had such a good time on the bus, everyone was on time, Barnes did exactly want we wanted them too and because of them the day went so smoothly. The driver was a lovely man (put up with alot of singing) and the coach was clean and tidy. Would highly recommend them to anyone."

"DAY TRIP TO WESTON-SUPER-MARE JULY 2013 Well planned route. Easy to get to the pick up point as customer from the moonrakers pub. Smooth journey both ways by driver Dave. Dave explained clearly the safety procedures on the coach where and what to do in a emergency. I would certainly be using Barnes coaches again for an enjoyable day out. Many Thanks "

"Our WI booked with yourselves to visit Berkeley Castle and can confirm that everything was excellent, our coach driver Mike picked us up promptly and we enjoyed a scenic journey to our destination. The coach was clean and comfortable . Mike went out of his way to be helpful both on our arrival when he provided information about the facilities etc. and during the organised tour when he assisted one of our elderly ladies who has mobility problems,and this was much appreciated by the lady in question and the rest of the party. He also dropped off 2 elderly members by their homes instead of the main destination, again much appreciated .We always use Barnes Coaches for our trips and will continue to do so."

"The whole day was wonderful, we had a planned itinerary but we wanted to be flexible because of uncertain weather forecasts. I left the decisions in Ashley's hands and he made excellent choices and the day worked so well. The folks loved his guide to the locality and genial attitude. Nothing was too much trouble and the professional and friendly service we always depend upon from Barnes was much in evidence again. There really is no contest in Swindon for value for money, attention to detail and clean and comfortable coaches. The group requested Ashley again as our driver after a fabulous day out last year, when Ashley ably managed a mishap with a very foolhardy van driver who managed to collide with the coach through his own lack of judgement. Everyone was very impressed by the calm and decisive reaction from our driver and his cheerful demeanor. #we have all experienced miserable journeys with bad tempered or non communicative drivers in the past so we especially value the friendly and professional approach. Thank you, we look forward to booking again for next year!"
