When a small group needs a driver

Some trips sit in an awkward middle ground. Ten people is two or three cars, two or three drivers who cannot enjoy the day, and a convoy that loses itself at the first set of lights. A full touring coach is more than you need. A minibus with a driver keeps the group together, takes the parking out of the picture and lets everyone arrive at the same time.

That is the work our small vehicles do best. They are nimble enough for narrow streets in Paddington or the Mountains, short enough for harbourside venues with vehicle length limits, and comfortable enough for a full day in the Hunter or the Highlands.

Popular small group trips

Airport arrivals and departures

A family flying in from overseas, a sales team landing for a conference or a wedding party arriving from interstate. The driver tracks the flight, meets the group and handles the luggage. See our Sydney Airport group transfers.

Winery and food days

A 12 or 20 seat minibus can visit five or six cellar doors in the Hunter Valley in a day, including smaller vineyards with driveways a coach cannot use. Read about our Hunter Valley wine tours.

Wedding guests and bridal parties

Small vehicles shine at venues like Bradleys Head, where length limits rule out a coach, and for running the bridal party between photo locations. See wedding coach hire.

Day tours for families and visitors

Echo Point and the Three Sisters, Bowral and Berrima, or a harbour and beaches loop through the city. Small groups can change plans on the day without holding up anyone else. Try our Blue Mountains bus tours or Southern Highlands coach tours.

Corporate and site visits

Executives touring a site, visiting clients across the city or moving between a hotel and a conference venue. One driver, one vehicle and a fixed schedule. See corporate coach hire.

Planning tips

• Count heads honestly and allow one or two spare seats. Every passenger must have a seat.
• Tell us about luggage. Minibuses have less luggage room than coaches, so airport groups with large cases may need the next size up.
• Tell us about access needs or young children so we can plan seating.
• If your numbers grow past 24, we can step up to a 39 seat touring coach. See the full coach and minibus fleet.

Families visiting Sydney

Extended families flying in for a wedding, a reunion or a holiday often find a minibus the simplest way to get around. The same driver can meet them at the airport, take them on a city sights loop, drive them to the wedding and bring them back for the flight home. Everyone stays together, and older relatives and young children travel without the stress of trains and taxis.

Small group trips out of Sydney

A small vehicle does not mean a short trip. Our 20 and 24 seat vehicles regularly run full days to the Hunter Valley, the Blue Mountains and the Southern Highlands, and their size is an advantage once you arrive: they fit into smaller car parks, reach boutique cellar doors and pull up closer to cafés and lookouts. For a family visiting from overseas or a club on a quiet weekday outing, that makes for an easier day with less walking.
