Build the passenger and meeting-point plan
Plan minibus hire in Broadstairs
Several details help match the right vehicle when a group is travelling home together.
Check the driver's licence first
Confirm which licence category your driver holds before deciding on a seat group, as requirements can differ between the smaller and larger minibuses.
Work out your true headcount
Count every person making the return journey, the driver included, so the seat group actually fits the whole party.
Separate luggage from seating
Overnight bags, gifts or event kit need room of their own beyond the passenger count, so mention what's coming back with the group.
Flag any onward travel
If the return trip continues beyond Kent, mention this early so we can discuss what's possible.

Minibus Hire questions
Does the driver count as one of the 17 seats?
Yes, every seat group we quote, right up to the top seventeen-seat option, has the driver built into the total, so that biggest group carries sixteen passengers plus the person driving.
What if we're not sure who's driving yet?
It's worth naming a driver before booking, since licence categories can limit which seat groups are open to you, so confirm this as soon as you're able.
Can you also arrange minibus hire for people joining our return trip from other addresses?
Contact us with the address and the specifics of the journey you're planning, and we'll advise on what's possible.
