"Just returned from an amazing holiday with Barnes Coaches - a mini-cruise to Orkney and Shetland that I highly recommend. It was amazing! Our driver, Neil, was utterly fantastic - smartly attired,nothing was too much trouble (including fixing my walker) and oh how we all laughed together for the whole week. The Mercedes coach was really comfortable, much more so than I thought it might have been. The coach was very clean on arrival and kept so by Neil. Looking for my next trip now."

"The booking process was easy and straight forward. Even last minute changes were dealt with swiftly. Drivers were on time and friendly. And the buses were very clean on both days (had different buses/drivers) for the outward and return journeys. One small comment for improvement would be to have the emails during the booking stage signed with a name, rather than the company's details. It makes it more personal and you have a feeling that you are actually communicating with a person. Occasionally it was signed off with a name, but most of the time it wasn't."

"Absolutely fantastic to deal with right from the start. The office staff were great in terms of dealing with the ferry company, the driver was brilliantly professional, very knowledgeable, and couldn’t do enough to ensure the success of our trip. Excellent all round !"

"Journeys went very well -- no concerns about drivers. Kept us informed about safety issues. One driver needed a shower. Vehicles were clean and comfortable. The ONLY suggestions I have are (1) because you're a big company, I sometimes felt that the person who answered my email hadn't read previous emails -- usually on the same email trail -- and asked me to repeat information; (2) I sometimes had to ask for the phone number for "our driver the next day." Once a trip begins, it's crucial for me to be able to contact the "driver for the next day" to go over pick up and set down issues in more detail -- things that often can't be arranged in advance (or may change overnight due to local conditions). That said, I was VERY HAPPY with our experience with Barnes!!!!! I appreciate you and your drivers very much!"
