One of the reasons we decided to specialize in coach hire & minibus hire when setting up People 2 Places was that coach hire makes the most sense when planning journeys around the UK and Northern Ireland (and even into Europe too). In this day and age it is pretty difficult not to think about your carbon footprint and we’re proud to say that coach hire and coach travel are one of the most environmentally friendly ways to travel.
As an example, a one way journey from London to Edinburgh, the amount of carbon dioxide emitted per passenger works out at 339kg on the plane, 129kg in a medium car, 73kg by train, and only 53kg per person by coach. So if you’re organizing a trip for a large group, coach hire is the mode of transport guaranteed to provide maximum fun at minimum environmental cost to the planet!
That’s not to say that it is all hair shirts and eco-guilt however. Coach hire has come on a long way from the tatty school buses and dodgy VHS players we all remember as kids. These days, coach hire is not only the greenest option, but also the most luxurious. Depending on your coach hire operator, you can source coaches best suited to corporate or private outings, offering businesses facilities such as power points in the seats, in-coach monitors for presentations and from wireless networking to coaches with larger tables for boardroom meetings as well as luxurious bar areas for socializing; for private groups you can get coaches with fridges and drinks machines, stereos, DVD players and plasma screens as well as games consoles and leather seats. The list goes on. Coach hire has come a long way and offers a luxurious and relaxed way to travel, whilst doing your bit to reduce the carbon footprint of you and your group.
