"First class service. Our driver Robert was punctual and professional. He was kind and friendly and pointed out landmarks as we approached London to ensure a great atmosphere. He ensured everyone got off and on the coach safely. Thank you from the Arts Society Newbury."

"Yesterday I went on the day trip to Kew for the Orchid Festival. Seven of us had been told the pick up time at Wantage was 8.50. The coach did not arrive and after an hour one of the group phoned the office. It turned out the time of pick up had been changed to 10.50 but we hadn't been told. We then arrived at Kew at 12.45 having missed our pre booked group slot so we had to queue up in a very long queue. I don't like complaining because the drivers are always excellent, as were yesterdays, Robbie, Phil and Scott, and the holidays always run well. I enjoy using Barnes but lately it would seem the administration is slipping. This is not my first problem with a pickup time although to be fair last time I was sent a £20 voucher which was much appreciated. I have had other small administration errors recently. It would be a great shame if this side of the company lets them down."

"The coach arrived on time and the journey from Newbury to Birmingham and back went smoothly. The coach was comfortable and having a toilet on board was very useful and saved us from an emergency situation! The driver was super helpful and made our trip a pleasurable experience."

"I recently travelled with Wanderers Australia on a netball tour around the UK and France with my daughter. We spent the first few days with Jason and the final 10 days with Zac. Our tour had 30 teenage girls on board along with support staff, parents and family. Both drivers were amazing! They built rapport with everyone on the trip regardless of whether it was the teen girls or the adults. They were always more than willing to assist. Both coaches were clean, comfortable and very well presented. I highly recommend them!!"

"We had a minibus for the afternoon to do a two stop journey before returning home. The driver, Dave was there early and helped our passengers on board and could not have been more friendly and professional. The minibus was very comfortable and incredibly clean. Everything ran like clockwork and the service was exceptional. Organising the booking was also very easy and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Barnes or use them again. Thank you for the great service."
