"Everything went well nice coach clean and tidy. Good journey. Our driver was Josh and he couldn't have been more helpful, I left something behind and he phoned me to let me know he'd found it. I really appreciated that."

"Journey to London with Ian our driver; very smooth, everything as promised. Journey home with Elliot; Very slightly late to pick us up. Closure of M4 meant we had a long diversion and the compulsory 45 minute rest break delayed some of our group from other appointments. We ran out of hot water for drinks and importantly, water for flushing the loo. Elliot is very personable and his personality helped mitigate the deficiencies. I feel he should have been more prepared for this trip. Perhaps Barnes logistics need sharpening."
Would they recommend: Yes

"Hi, thank you for your review. I will certainly look into why the coach was slightly late arriving and why the tanks hadn't been filled. I can only apologise for the slight inconvenience you encountered. Thanks"

"Vehicles are great and drivers friendly. However, the routes were questionable meaning the two separate journeys took way longer than they should. We matched the route with the ones we got from various reliable apps/sources and they clearly differed a lot."

"We had some issues regarding timings on the day of our journey. The driver arrived late for collection, and stated that he had gotten lost on the way. He then got lost twice on the journey to Marwell Zoo, despite obvious signage, which meant that we arrived at the venue late for our event. On the return journey, we arrived at the coach, which was really hot, as the driver hadn't turned on the air conditioning. The driver left the venue, and then pulled over to the side of the road to figure out how to turn on the air conditioning. The driver missed the nearest junction to our site, which meant that it took longer to get back than it should have done. Overall, the vehicle was nice, clean, had working seatbelts and was comfortable (once the AC was on) and the driver was polite."
Would they recommend: Yes
