Private Hire

Hire The Wanderbus For Your Group

Affordable minibus hire with a dedicated volunteer driver for local community clubs, sports societies, schools and associations, for trips to destinations within a 60-mile radius, excluding London. We are not a taxi or private car service, so we are unable to take bookings from individuals.

Dedicated Driver

Relax and enjoy your day out without the worry of driving, parking, or navigation.

16 Comfortable Seats

Modern minibuses fitted with seatbelts, air conditioning, and luggage and equipment storage.

Flexible Pick-Ups

Multi-point collection and drop-off available across our local villages.

When You Can Hire

Hire isn't tied to set days or times. It depends on having a bus and a volunteer driver free, so call us with your date, pick-up time, starting point and destination. All hires are subject to driver and vehicle availability.

Please note: We’re unable to carry passengers who need to remain in their wheelchair while travelling, under our Section 22 Department of Transport licence. Passengers who can transfer to one of our seats are very welcome, and folded wheelchairs and walking aids can travel in our luggage area, space permitting. If anyone in your group needs help transferring, please bring your own helpers, as our drivers cannot assist. For wheelchair-accessible transport, please contact Link-A-Ride on 01525 840511.
