"Another fantastic evening out with Barnes Coaches to Birmingham for Andre Rieu. Service as always, second to none. Our driver Patrick picked us up from our stop and safely delivered us to/from Birmingham. Well done Barnes. Even arrived early enough for a quick tipple in the bar beforehand!"

"West Berkshire Ramblers have used Barnes for their coach walks for a number of years and have always been impressed by their service. Sunday 27 April 2025 was no exception. Our excellent driver, Scott, was courteous and friendly at all times, efficiently dropping off groups of walkers at pre-arranged spots and waiting patiently in Windsor for us all to converge late afternoon. Everything worked very smoothly."

"Our group have used Barnes Coaches on a number of occasions over the years and the .coaches are very clean, tidy and comfortable. The drivers are always smartly turned out and very helpful. On the last occasion of using Barnes, I made an error on the booking date, but the Barnes team and driver Phil saved the day, for which I was truly grateful. We had a wonderful day out."

"Firstly for the first time in my many brilliant day trips/holidays with Barnes the coach to Portsmouth 21 April was sadly not up to your usual excellent standard. Dripping water from above the seats on the main coach caused problems but to their credit the driver + the feeder coach driver did the best they could to rectify at Newbury and supplied affected passengers with paper towels for the onward journey. Commendably the coach was replaced for the return journey. Secondly just thought I'd mention that the hovercraft was much better organised this time as we were given stickers to show Hovertravel instead of someone with a list of names and trying to gather all those concerned together"
Would they recommend: Yes

Thanks"
