Coach and Minibus Hire for Race Days

Race days fill the events calendar up and down the country, whether that’s at your local racecourse or at one of the Nation’s favourites. Don’t let your excitement of a day at the races be dampened by the stresses of organising or booking transport. 

At Coach Hire Comparison, we can help you find the best transport that suits both your needs and your price range. Instead of spending hours comparing prices to find the best coach hire for the races, we will do all the hard work for you - finding the best minibus and coach suppliers for you. Simply input your pick-up location, drop off location, how many passengers, and the times you need to arrive and depart - we will do the rest.

We have been putting racegoers in contact with coach and minibus suppliers for years, so we know a thing or two about organising a group day for the races. If you’re looking for some help to organise a smooth-running day, read our blog on how to plan a group day at the races.

Payment protection for online bookings

We're confident that almost all of our bookings will run smoothly. But if for any reason your coach doesn't arrive, we'll happily refund your payment in full - that's a promise! Make sure you book online to claim payment protection.

Why should you choose to travel by minibus or coach to your race day?

Choosing to travel to your race day in a minibus or coach means that you can all travel together. It can also be very cost-effective, especially when you split the cost between all your friends, family or colleagues. Hiring a minibus or coach can work out cheaper than paying for petrol and parking. You also won’t need to argue about who will be the designated driver, the stresses of parking or which route you will take, as one of our drivers will take care of that.

What are some of the racing events of the year?

Cheltenham - Set in the heart of the Cotswolds, Cheltenham races start the year off nicely. Cheltenham usually takes place around mid-March and showcases some of the best jump racing talent in Britain.

Aintree Grand National - Following on from Cheltenham, next up in early April is the Aintree Grand National held in Liverpool at the Aintree racecourse. The Grand National is one of the most famous horse races in the world, being watched in over 140 different countries. It is definitely a must-visit for horse race lovers.

The Royal Ascot - Another one of the most popular races happens in mid-June, the Royal Ascot. The Royal Ascot is known throughout the world and attracts some of the finest horses. It’s known for its exquisite high fashion, elegance and royal guestlist. 

Qatar Goodwood Festival - With 14 action-packed races, the Qatar Goodwood Festival has so much to offer. We can guarantee a great atmosphere, a well-dressed crowd and picturesque scenes (and of course excellent horse racing!) - the perfect combination.

The site was excellent for getting quotes that arrived within a couple of days. The site organization for paying for a booking was repetitive and clumsy
