Coach hire for 60 people

Sixty people still fit in one large coach, but not in every one. From this size you also look at a double-decker, certainly if luggage comes along.

Our advice for 60 people

For sixty people we recommend a large coach with at least sixty seats. Not every coach has that many: the type runs from thirty-five to sixty-six seats. If luggage comes along, or a few more people join, a double-decker with sixty-four seats or more is the roomier choice.

Which coach suits 60 people?

The seats per type, from minibus to double-decker. The type that suits your group stands out. Click a bar for more about that type.

Which size do you choose for 60 people?

With sixty you hesitate between a large coach, a double-decker or two smaller buses. One large coach is the simplest: one driver and one bus to park. A double-decker gives room to spare, but is taller and does not fit under every bridge or into every multi-storey car park. You only choose two buses if the group splits up along the way.

What does a coach for 60 people cost?

A price without your trip would be a guess for 60 people, so it is not shown here. What you pay mainly depends on four things:

The vehicle. How many seats 60 people need, and what is on board.
The trip. How long the coach is on the road with your 60, how far it drives, and how far the coach company has to travel to reach you.
The day and the time. On a Saturday, a Sunday or public holiday, or at night, our standard rate adds a surcharge.
The month. Our standard rate differs per month: higher in busy months than in quiet ones.

How we work that out is explained on How we calculate.

Practical points for 60 people

Sixty people is two classes with their supervisors, a large club or a company on a staff outing. A double-decker does not go everywhere: ask at the destination whether the access road and the car park are suitable for a tall bus. A coach company knows which routes a double-decker avoids.

Low-emission zones and your coach

What to look out for with 60 people

Count precisely. With sixty people one seat makes the difference between a large coach and a double-decker, and so between two offers.
On a double-decker the group is spread over two floors. For a guide with a microphone that is no problem, for a game on the bus it is.
If you go with two buses, agree on someone responsible per bus and give each driver their own list of names.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about a coach for 60 people

Does a group of 60 fit in one coach?

In a large coach it does: the largest have up to sixty-six seats, but far from every coach is that big. With sixty plus luggage a double-decker is the safe choice.

How many seats does a double-decker have?

A double-decker has sixty-four to ninety-two seats. For a group of sixty there is room to spare, on two floors.

Are two midibuses a good idea for 60 people?

Rarely. You pay two drivers for the same trip and the group does not travel together. You choose two buses if the group goes to two different places along the way.

What does it cost to hire a coach for 60 people?

That depends on your trip: how far and how long, on which day and at what time, and which vehicle fits 60 people. Fill in your route and date, and within a minute you see what coach companies charge for your trip with 60 people.
