Coach trip to Dublin Marathon

Our Coach trip over to Dublin, for the Marathon, was made exceptionally easy. Our amazing driver Ken Duxberry, kept us all informed and entertained. His driving was highly professional, safe and smooth! Even though he wasn't well (and he ran the Marathon too) we were returned to Wales safe and sound. Great service from a good friend. Thanks pal!!

Excellent experience from start to finish

The bus arrived early for a early morning pick up. The bus was clean and comfortable. The whole journey was really smooth. The driver, Samantha, was fantastic all day - really friendly and helpful.
Will definitely use the company again.

Office/paperwork let them down

The trip was amazing and our driver Darko was great, and his son a great help and really lovely to have on board. Darko also kept us informed of any traffic and ETAs, he also told us fun facts during the journey and hints and tips for Disneyland. I give Darko 5* absolutely.

But the evening before our trip, I looked at the coracle website to double check the details, only to see that the departure time was 5.20 not the 3.20 on our paperwork. After contacting my travel agent, who spent all day trying to contact coracles to find out the correct time, and having to ring several different numbers as no one knew what was happening, it was confirmed the pickup time was 5.20 as on the website not our booking form, in the meantime I had contacted the company of our feeder bus and they confirmed it was a 5.20 pickup within 15mins of me calling and leaving a message, why were the small feeder bus company able to respond to quickly and it took coracles from 9.30-4pm to reply. Which meant I had re-arrange my taxi lift with just 12hours notice and I have still not had an explanation as to why we were given the wrong time on our booking form, can you imagine sitting outside a sports centre for 2hours at the end of October with 2 children???? The office/paperwork was the only fault with the whole process of this holiday, such a shame otherwise I would be giving them 5+ stars.

Second trip with Coracle

This is our 2nd trip to Disneyland with Coracle Coaches and hopefully won't be our. Friendly, smiley service from the start with greatly organised stops to break what is a long journey. Coach is comfortable and you are able to charge phones, pads etc. There's also a drinks service which is such a lovely touch, especially at £1. When we got to Paris, we didn't even to queue to check in as our wonderful driver, Drako did it and gave us all our room keys. Him and his son were fantastic all weekend and Darko often got on the mic to give us some facts about the area etc.
Thank you Darko, and Coracle for another fantastic 4 days of memory making 😍

Mystery Trip !!

Mystery Trip !!! Oct 25th 2025
Fabulous trip, Sam the driver is amazing her knowledge and skills shone through while driving through the busy Bull Ring in Birmingham! Organisation skills were top notch ! Fran our host was superb !! Very welcoming friendly and always asking if everyone was happy :) We went Stratford Upon Avon for a few hours then up to the Bull Ring Birmingham ( they never gave away anything kept us guessing all the way ) stayed over night with a meal provided which was lovely and plentiful ! We then headed off not knowing where we were going , but to our massive suprise we went to Cadburys world which was fun and enough time was given not to long but not to short . Then lastly we headed to Gloucester town !!
Dan also provided a selfie challenge for us to do and bingo on the bus was fun !!

AFTER DARK AT BODMIN JAIL

From a friendly welcome at our pick up point to a cheery farewell at drop off I genuinely can not rate Sam and Clive, our drivers,highly enough.Top notch driving and smooth journey with informative pit-stops. It really did feel like we had all known each other for ages. The booking process and communication throughout was professional and easy to navigate. It was our first booking with Coracle Coaches but am certain it won't be our last. Thank you.

Mamma mia the party

Great trip to mamma mia the party, stayed in the ibis which was clean with breakfast included. Jon was a great driver, smart, considerate, friendly and gave lots of helpful tips both in London and before going into the o2. Don't usually go on coach trips but would definitely travel on Coracle coach trips again. Very organised and seamless.
