Common Questions

Can I drive an 8-seater minibus on a car licence?+

Yes — in the UK, a standard category B car licence allows you to drive any vehicle with up to 9 seats including the driver, provided you're 21+ and the vehicle is under 3.5 tonnes. For a 10+ seat minibus, you may need a D1 category.

How much does it cost to hire a minibus?+

Prices depend on size, distance, duration and time of year. A typical 8-seater self-drive minibus starts around £80–£120 per day; with a driver, £250–£450 per day is common for local UK trips. Get a personalised quote in 60 seconds.

Do you provide a driver?+

Yes — the vast majority of our bookings include a fully licensed PSV/PCV driver. Self-drive is available for smaller minibuses (up to 9 seats) subject to age/licence.

How far in advance should I book?+

For weekends, weddings or peak summer/Christmas, we recommend 4–6 weeks. Off-peak weekday trips can often be arranged same-week.

Are your operators insured?+

Every partner operator carries a minimum of £5M public liability insurance, full comprehensive vehicle cover, and passenger indemnity. Certificates available on request.
