Vintage bus hire

Ding ding!  Hold tight please!  Are you ready for a trip down memory lane?


Let us transport you in true style back to  the functional Forties,  the fabulous Fifties or  the swinging Sixties.  Experience a day out by bus or coach, just as it used to be.


We offer vintage bus hire across East and Central Scotland suitable for your wedding, prom, corporate hospitality, family occasions, photoshoot or filming requirements, offering an exciting new dimension to your day.  We can even offer replica vintage bus tickets, customised for your occasion, as a memento of your journey with us.

Our classic vehicle collection ranges from 39 seater coaches through to 67 seater double deckers, including an iconic red London Routemaster bus.


A specific quote will be offered for your exact travel or hire requirements. As an initial guide, prices for a daytime single or return trip on a vintage bus or coach start at:
