A good service but it was unfortunate that I had to be transferred from my original bus to another at Birmingham as the first one left about 10-15 minutes earlier and it took forever to get out of Birmingham, delaying the journey by 45 minutes.

Very good nowadays but lack of drivers wearing fm’s, and many passengers on board not wearing fm’s during the journey - not good.

This was our first coach trip in England and we were very impressed by the staff and the coach service.
