If you've spent any summers down on the Strand or had a knees-up by Dawlish Warren, you'll know getting a lively crew from A to B is a right part of the fun — that's where Party buses in Dawlish come into their own. We’re a neighbourly booking service with over 20 years' experience pairing folks with chauffeur-driven party bus options, from a compact 12–16 seater limo bus to a proper 20–24 seater luxury party coach.
Keep it simple and save a bob or two: share the cost among mates, consider daytime or mid-week hires, and always book early for bank holidays and prom season. A bit of local know-how goes a long way.
One smart trick is to book a roomy party bus for the outward journey and a smaller minibus or MPV for the return — you still get the party kicked off together and shave off some cost on the way home.
If you’ve a big gaggle, splitting across two smaller buses often works better than one enormous coach — it can be cheaper, easier to park near The Strand or town centre, and keeps things flexible if people need to nip off to different hotels.
Peak dates — weddings, race days at Exeter Racecourse, or festival weekends along the coast — fill fast. Book in advance and check for mid-week rates; you’ll often get a better deal than leaving it to the last minute.
Choosing between a limo bus, MPV, luxury minibus or a larger party coach depends on what you want from the night. Use the size, features and vibe to decide, not just the price.
A limo bus gives that club-on-wheels feel with LED lighting, booths and a bar area — brilliant for a hen do or prom. A luxury minibus is more subtle: comfy seats, sensible luggage space and a calmer ride for older guests or a wedding shuttle.
Pick a party bus when you want everyone together from the off — perfect for keeping the party rolling between venues like nearby Teignmouth, Exmouth or an evening in Exeter. If you want to start the celebration on the road, a party bus is the proper choice.
Our fleet covers the lot: compact limo buses (12–16 seater), roomy 16 seater options loved on prom nights, and large 20–24 seater luxury party coaches for bigger do’s. Every vehicle is a chauffeur-driven party bus, fully insured and maintained to a high standard.
