Coaches Avis 

Bluebird Coaches Weymouth gave us a fantastic tour in their Barging Around Brum package.

It’s so important to feel safe as a woman getting into a taxi, coach or minibus but you won’t feel safe with them. Their highly misogynistic and ‘women hating’ views, as well as their very public online abuse towards women from their business account speaks volumes of their unprofessionalism. Please do your research before booking. It’s quite scary to know they are that brazen and unworried about protecting their business. I’ve tried to attach one small snippet from the horses mouth about how ‘normal’ being a predator is and that women should wear burkas if they don’t want to attract the predator attention. The reply from the business that these are unified false allegations is gravely untrue, you only need to look at their social media history and comments to understand the concerning facts. There is no ‘coordinated attack’ however, I can only assume that other women have dealt with their business or seen their horrific online activity and came to the same conclusion of warning others.

I would never recommend this bus company to anyone I cared about. Especially women! The owner is a massive misogynist who trolls social media abusing women, but when asked, claims to be a woman himself. Take your business elsewhere for your own safety. I will add since posting this review, Stanley has gone out of his way to look up my phone number and continue to troll me directly on my personal number through SMS and WhatsApp, and used name calling, sending me photos of myself to offer his opinions of them and suggest he would like to come and see me. STAY AWAY. I would not take the time to offer such a warning for no reason. Hertfordshire police have been consulted on the matter of online stalking and hate speech. I wish photos could be added to support my accurate and truthful review. If Stanley doesn’t want backlash from people wanting to offer their recommendations to avoid this company, he needs to stay off social media and stop being abusive towards women. Posing as a woman when asked, so he could gaslight and dismiss the issues of gender based violence on a social media post is absolutely unacceptable. I hope he learns from this experience moving forward

Islamophobic company, they said on insta that’ that putting muslim into mental asylums camps was a good idea’ I have the picture to prove it too but it won’t let me upload it here

We went to Longleat Safari Park yesterday 13th Aug 2025 and what a lovely trip it was. Our driver was James and his companion who were two of the most friendlessly and helpful men Applegates could have employed.
James’s driving is 1st class it makes one able to sit and relax
.
We also want to Thank Anne the bookings lady she is always so happy helpful and knowledgable.

Bayliss travel. Professional and extremely friendly staff. We traveled to Somerset for a football match from deal. Lisa and Jeff were the drivers. Absolutely brilliant service. They were safe friendly and kept us informed about stops and timings etc. I have traveled with bayliss a few times and I can honestly say they are the best coaches and service you could alever need. Thank you to the company and especially to JEFF. and LISA. (hope I spelt their names right). I will always highly recommend them

Used Ugo coaches for transporting a large family reunion trip, excellent customer service, prompt replies even out of hours, competitive pricing, flexible, and reliable. I will most certainly use them again and highly recommend.
