According to its own website, the family behind TCB Van Gompel has been active in transport since 1834: first with horse and cart, later with lorries and since 1949 mainly with coaches.
The distance is measured from the base of TCB Van Gompel to the nearest city with its own page on BusOffer.
The seventh generation now works in the Brabant family business, which has branches in Bergeijk, Veldhoven and Tilburg. The coaches have been numbered from the very first; after the war, bus 1 took Hofnar staff to the cigar factory in Valkenswaard.
Today Van Gompel runs group transport, school trips, business transport and day trips, with wheelchair transport as a specialisation. The company says it was one of the first in the Netherlands to have a fully electric coach, with 50 seats, a fridge and multimedia.
On quality, it mentions recognition by the Stichting Keurmerk Touringcarbedrijven since 1995, ISO 9001 since 2014 and, after that foundation was dissolved in 2019, the Kwaliteitsnorm Busvervoer Nederland (the Dutch bus transport quality standard). Van Gompel is also a member of Koninklijk Nederlands Vervoer.
TCB Van Gompel mentions these types of trips on its own website. Whether that is still the case, we have not checked with TCB Van Gompel.

Yes. A coach company drives all over the Netherlands and often beyond. What does differ is the empty run to the start: the coach begins its day at the base of TCB Van Gompel, and those kilometres are in the price of every trip. So from these places TCB Van Gompel starts lower.
These quality marks are on TCB Van Gompel's own website; we have not checked them. Read on vangompel.nl/over-ons
We don't know yet which coaches TCB Van Gompel runs. A company enters that itself as soon as it signs up.
