Coach Tours

For over a decade, Ridleys Coaches has been delivering high-specification touring coaches for leading tour operators across the UK and beyond.

Professional & Reliable

Coach Tours Without Borders

UK, Ireland, Europe…if it’s on the map, we can take you there. During peak summer months, we typically have around 30 coaches on tour, with an average of 19 touring throughout the winter across the UK and Europe.

Thanks to our large, diverse, and immaculately maintained fleet, we’re able to support almost any touring requirement…always delivering service that goes the extra mile.

Types of Tours We Operate

UK Inbound Tourism

Inbound tourism is one of the fastest-growing travel markets, and Ridleys Coaches is proud to be at the forefront, supporting leading operators welcoming visitors to the UK.

European Tours

Through our trusted partners Leger Shearings, we operate 12 coaches on their network, making us the largest coach supplier within that network.

Ski Trips

Working with some of the most prestigious ski operators, we typically run 34 coaches during the annual Ski Week, with a further 30+ coaches during Easter Ski Week. Snow guaranteed (sometimes!) coach comfort included (always).

School Trips

From theatre breaks and swimming trips to four days in Normandy or a ten-day music tour in Bavaria, we provide reliable coach transfers for school tours across the UK and Europe. Wherever the lesson leads, we’re the operator who can deliver.

Sporting Tours

With extensive experience across UK & European sporting tours, we’re the go-to operator for teams on the move. Our larger executive coaches are ideal for long-distance travel and equipment-heavy tours. Need the coach to stay with you? No problem one of our highly trained drivers will be on hand whenever transport is required.

Why Choose Ridleys?

Ridleys Coaches was founded in 2009 by Becs and Jordan Ridley, starting with just one coach. Today, we’ve grown into a leading independent operator without losing the personal touch.

We’re not a faceless mega-corporation. We’re a friendly, professional team that puts customers first, not shareholders. Our coaches are among the best in the industry, our drivers are highly trained, DBS-checked, and experienced in tour operations, and they’re always happy to help along the way.
