We hired Star Coaches for our trip to York Racecourse. The booking couldn't have been easier — Jonathan was prompt with emails and no request was any trouble. Our driver Andy was on time, courteous and friendly, even stopped for a loo break without anyone asking, and got us all home safe. Thank you so much to Andy & Star Coaches!
I organised a trip to Anfield using Star for the 2nd year running. A top service from booking to leaving the coach on Sunday night — our driver Keith was fantastic from start to finish. A great service which I would highly recommend.
Booked Star Coaches for some LFC reds based in Bradford/Leeds for the parade. An excellent service from start to finish in some very challenging circumstances on the day. Idrees the driver and Imran in the office were a joy to communicate with. Would highly recommend.
We have used Star Coaches a few times, and time after time we get excellent quality service. Always reliable, very safe and exceptionally comfortable. Our driver Ashley was a credit to the company, a gentleman in every respect. A better company you could never wish for.
I run a day service for adults with learning disabilities and Star Coaches took our group to St Anne's for the day. They were fantastic! Communication beforehand was professional and friendly, and the driver was lovely. The bus was clean and comfortable for the long journey — we'll definitely use them again.
