About Coach Hire Comparison
At Coach Hire Comparison, we're all about creating fun experiences and lasting memories. Founded in 2010 by James and Laura Stokes, the company was born out of a desire to make coach and minibus travel more affordable and accessible for those planning group trips, outings, or holidays.
As proud parents of two kids, two dogs, and Coco, their playful orange mascot, the couple initially ran their own coach hire company. They soon recognised an opportunity to support other operators within the industry.
In 2023, they partnered with CMAC, which brings valuable expertise in ground transport along with innovation and investment. This collaboration allows Coach Hire Comparison to reach an even wider audience.
“There’s nothing quite like enjoying a sunny weekend with your favourite tunes in a festival field, but we all know the last thing you want to do the day after is drive!” James and Laura said. “One of the greatest joys of CHC is the role we play in helping people create memorable experiences while easing the stress of planning. We're constantly working on improvements to our platform and can't wait to assist even more people in organising their unforgettable festival adventures.”
