When organising university trips, it’s all about numbers. From the number of students attending to the cost per head; it’s crucial that everything fits before you proceed with a booking. At Coachhire4u, we strive to make that process as simple as possible so that you can venture outside the campus walls without fretting the whole time.
If you’re embarking on a research trip, for example, coach hire is by far the most cost-effective way to get students and teaching staff from A to B. We work with a variety of leading universities to provide year-round coach hire. As well as travelling to and from research centres around the UK, we often visit cultural centres
Ideal for fine art students, the National Portrait Gallery in London is a must-see. It houses some of the world’s most important artworks from recent centuries, including portraits of Queen Elizabeth and the monarch, work by Lucien Freud, political portraiture by John Singer Sargent and much more.
While in London, you may also want to visit other leading galleries such as the Tate Britain and Tate Modern, Whitechapel Gallery, the British Museum and Gagosian Gallery, to name a few.
If you’re a history lecturer, the Natural History Museum is crucial for research for BA students. It is home to thousands of historical artefacts, with extensive, world-famous British, Egyptian, Greek and dinosaur collections. The Museum runs group tours that are ideal for groups of students; you will not only explore the Museum but also participate in activities related to your area of interest.
If you teach Media Studies, Film Studies, Film and Television Production or related subjects, the BBC Television Studios should be your first point of call when building your residential program. Your students can tour the studios, find out how the production process works first-hand, meet individuals doing the jobs they want when they graduate, and go behind-the-scenes at one of the world’s leading media organisations.
But it’s not always about the students. We also offer university travel coach hire for university staff, including for faculty outings. If you’re organising a summer or Christmas event, or you have staff training scheduled, you can get your team from A to B with our affordable coach hire services.
We have a variety of coach types available, including minibuses, 30-seater coaches, 50-seater coaches and 75-seater coaches. All our coaches are modern and most come with in-built televisions to keep everyone occupied for the duration of the trip.
All our drivers are fully certified, and our coaches are safety checked regularly.
We often coordinate with universities to arrange travel for annual alumni events. We can meet your alumni at a pickup point in your city and transport them to the university, which is particularly useful for older alumni that may not be able to find their way otherwise.
When at the university, if you wish, we can wait until the event is over and then transport alumni that need it back to the nearby train station or airport, for instance.
With our university travel coach hire services, coordinating alumni events is a piece of cake.
Almost 20% of students in the UK are international students. That’s hundreds of thousands of students flying in and out of the UK at the end of term or for Christmas holidays.
At Coachhire4u, we can work with your university to provide coach travel services for international students, to make their journey that little bit easier. We can transport students from the university to airports, such as Stansted, Gatwick and Luton, so that they don’t have to spend hours jumping from train to train.
With our coach hire services for international students, you can show your students that you’re an organised, helpful institution that operates with their needs at heart.
