When you’re having a party or a fabulous night out, the last thing you want to do is worry about logistics. You just want to focus on enjoying your time with your friends or family.

That’s just one reason why hiring a minibus is a great option for getting you to and from a party or big event.

In fact, there are a host of benefits of choosing this type of transport versus cars, public transit or ride-share services. Read on as we explore them all.

Start off your party stress-free

There’s a lot to do when you’re gathering a group together for a party or special event. You’ll have to:

• Deal with mapping apps as you try to figure out transport, perhaps in an unfamiliar area
• Coordinate your travel so that everyone gets to the destination
• Wait for a rideshare service, taxi, or bus to show up
• Or struggle with traffic, roadworks and parking when you drive.

In short, by the time you arrive at your party, you might already be feeling stressed or tired.

With a minibus, all these problems go away. Everyone’s traveling together, so you won’t have to be on your phone helping a lost friend or family member meet up with you when the party’s already started.

You also won’t be stressed out by traffic or delayed by having to find a place to park. And, of course, there’s no chance that a minibus simply won’t show up, whereas this is a risk with a rideshare or taxi.

In short, with a minibus, you’ll arrive at your event worry-free and ready to party.

Start having fun as soon as your minibus arrives

If you’re planning a big bash, you might choose a venue that’s not near home. But that could mean losing a chunk of your time to travel.

With a minibus, the good times and togetherness start as soon as your minibus arrives. You can turn on some LED mood lighting and start having fun right away by taking some photos together or chatting as your driver takes you to your destination. You can even start by having some snacks to fuel you up for a day of activities or an evening of dancing.

A ride that shows up on time, every time

Getting transport can often be unpredictable. Ride-shares and taxis can take a while to locate you, and they can face delays in getting to you if they have to drive to you from someplace that’s not nearby.

Of course, public transit notoriously suffers from delays and cancellations, and ride-shares might not even be available in more rural areas.

A hired minibus removes all the uncertainty from the equation. You specify ahead of time when and where they need to pick you up, and they’ll be there – it’s that simple!

Travel in safety

There are some risks involved when you’re trying to get home or to a hotel after a social event, especially if it’s night-time. You might not feel safe on late-night public transit, but walking to a multistorey car park at a late hour isn’t completely safe either, and nor is waiting on a street for a ride share. In fact, if it’s really late, public transit might no longer be running.

A reliable minibus company like Star Coaches offers uniformed, DBS-checked drivers and strong safety procedures. Your minibus will pick you up at the appointed time, with no need for you to wait, and drop you off directly at your home or hotel.

No need for a designated driver

If you’ve gone out by car to have cocktails for someone’s birthday, then someone will have to miss out in order to be the designated driver. There’s no need for that with a private minibus.

Moreover, even a completely sober driver can find it hard to navigate at night when it’s really late and they’re worn out. You don’t have to worry about that when a professional driver takes care of it for you.

A special touch

When you’re celebrating a really big event, whether it’s grandma’s ninetieth or your own engagement, it’s nice to add a little extra special treatment to mark the occasion. There’s no better way to do this than by hiring a private minibus to take you to your party in style.

At Star Coaches, our minibuses seat 16 to 20 and have features like leather headrests, air-conditioning and privacy glass that make your travel experience super comfortable. Plus, what’s more luxurious than being picked up and driven door to door?

If you’ve rented a private dining room at a restaurant or rented a whole venue for your party, you’re well on your way to having an indulgent and trouble-free experience.

A minibus that takes you from one to the other is the perfect addition to help your experience go smoothly.

No anxieties about locating your hotel or rental house

A minibus is a great choice simply to get you home in safety and comfort after a night out. But if your event is the beginning of a party weekend, it’s common to rent a whole house so that your group of friends can continue hanging out together.

This is a great idea. But it also means you’ll be trying to navigate to an unfamiliar place late at night. You won’t be able to give a rideshare or taxi driver advice on how to get there, if that’s the type of transport you’re using.

A professional minibus driver, on the other hand, will know your destination in advance and will be well-prepared to get you there without hassle. You won’t need to try to pull up maps on your phone to figure out where you’re going. You can simply relax after your evening out.
