Hi — we’re Party Buses, your local friend for a fuss-free night out or celebration in Dunbar. If you want straight-up, practical Booking Advice, here it is: book early for bank holidays and prom season, split costs across friends, and consider a one-way party bus out with a smaller minibus back to save money without losing the party vibe.
A couple of tricks we recommend: hire the limo bus for the outward journey so everyone arrives together and in style, then use a cheaper MPV or minibus for the return; or split a 30-person group into two 16–20 seater buses if the size difference drops the per-head rate. Mid-week or daytime hires can be surprisingly economical.
We see party buses for all sorts in Dunbar and across East Lothian — birthdays, proms, weddings, hen and stag parties, race days, concerts, festivals and nights out. Packages often include one-way transfers, round trips or multiple stops so you can drop at the ceremony, the reception and a late-night venue without juggling taxis.
Picture this: music pulsing through the cabin, LED lights changing colour with the beat, friends dancing in comfy seats and bubbles of laughter as you pull up at the venue. That first step off the bus together — it’s electric. We want you to imagine a chauffeur-driven party bus that feels like a moving private room where the night starts long before you reach the club, hotel or wedding venue.
We know Dunbar — from Belhaven Bay and the harbour through to the John Muir Country Park — and we regularly run routes between the town, popular hotels, and nearby hotspots in North Berwick and Haddington. You’ll spot our buses outside local wedding venues, at festival car parks, or lined up for a big night at a nearby events space. If you want us to call out favourite pick-up spots, we’ll suggest places that make loading and leaving quick and safe.
We take professionalism seriously. Every vehicle on our platform is chauffeur-driven, fully insured and maintained to high standards. When you book with us you can compare availability and prices across trusted operators — no endless DMs or guesswork. We check licences and insurance so you don’t have to, and our chauffeurs know local roads and event logistics inside out.
From compact 12–16 seater limo buses for tighter groups to 20–24 seater luxury party coaches, we list vehicles to suit how you want to travel. Typical on-board features include LED lighting, premium sound systems, mini bar areas, space to dance and optional karaoke — all designed to give you that luxury party bus with driver experience.
Choosing between a limo bus, a stretch limo, a Hummer limo, a luxury minibus or an MPV depends on what you want from the journey. If staying together, starting the party early and arriving in one electric moment matter most, a party bus often wins. If you need a more discreet, formal arrival for a small wedding party, a stretch limousine might suit better. For cost efficiency on the return journey, a luxury minibus or MPV can be a smart choice.
We aim to be clear about cost. Prices vary by vehicle, time of day and date — weekends and summer festival weekends climb. Sharing costs between friends, booking early, and considering an outward party bus with a return minibus will all reduce what you pay per head.
| Vehicle | Typical group size | Common uses | Estimate (local daytime) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12–16 seater limo bus | 12–16 | Small wedding groups, hen/stag, prom | From £120–£220 per hour |
| 16 seater party bus UK | 14–16 | Proms, nights out | From £150–£260 per hour |
| 20–24 seater luxury coach | 18–24 | Large wedding parties, festivals | From £200–£350 per hour |
We recommend booking as early as you can for peak dates — at least six to eight weeks for summer weekends, and earlier for wedding season. For quieter mid-week dates you can sometimes find good availability with shorter notice.
Chauffeur-driven means a qualified driver meets you at the pickup point, handles parking and routes, and ensures the vehicle is used safely. All drivers on our platform carry the necessary licences and insurance.
Yes — many of our packages allow multiple stops. Tell us your plan (ceremony, photos, reception, after-party) and we’ll build an itinerary that minimises wait time and keeps the group together.
