Visiting the City of Westminster – be it for a tour of Buckingham Palace or to enjoy one of London’s many West End shows – can often mean navigating its many attractions and bustling streets, whilst still making your planned arrival time. Minibus Hire London offers driver operated minibus hire for groups travelling to, from and around Westminster. Whether you’re making an airport transfer, travelling for business, heading off on a school trip, getting married, going sightseeing or attending another special occasion, our minibuses are available to hire with 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18 passenger seating capacities and we also offer coach hire for larger groups.
Why not tell us about your planned passenger numbers, luggage and itinerary and we can advise on the most suitable vehicle option for your requirements.
From the governmental streets of Whitehall and busy shopping centre of Oxford Street, to the quieter residential streets of Maida Vale, there’s lots to explore in the Westminster area of London and we’re happy to receive minibus hire enquiries for journeys to and from many locations including but not limited to Westminster, Victoria, Pimlico, Marylebone, Mayfair, Paddington, Soho and St James’s.
Minibuses can be hired with a driver to and from Buckingham Palace for organised group and family visits or whilst enjoying a day of sightseeing around London’s central attractions, whilst Victoria and Paddington can act as useful pick-up and drop-off points for groups arriving into Westminster by coach or rail from further afield. Alternatively, our minibuses could help with the running of journeys for business meetings, private events or other social get-togethers taking place in Westminster’s neighbourhoods of Mayfair and Marylebone and, for groups travelling together into the West End and Soho for a night out, it could also be convenient to pre-arrange a communal pick-up/drop-off point in advance with your minibus driver.
As Westminster does contain a number of pedestrian zones, busy roads and other parking restrictions which can dictate the most suitable pick-up or drop-off point, please do include your full destination address and any preferred pick-up point when making an enquiry so that we can consider your requirements further.
The Westminster area is regularly visited for corporate events and professional meetings, with visitors frequenting the neighbourhoods surrounding Parliament Square, Whitehall, Victoria and St James’s all year round, so group transportation could be a convenient travel option to consider.
Minibus Hire London offers driver operated minibus hire for business journeys in and around the City of Westminster, so if you’re looking for reliable transportation to help shuttle staff, visitors or guests between offices, hotels and event venues, please get in touch. To receive a tailored minibus hire quote for a Westminster business function or corporate event, let us know your passenger numbers, preferred timings for your outward and return journeys and any other pertinent details.
As always, do bear in mind potential journey times through central London when planning itineraries with multiple pick-up/drop-off stops and don’t forget that our coaches may be a more suitable option if you’re looking to transport a larger group.
As well as many historic and government landmarks, including the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey and the Churchill War Rooms, the City of Westminster is also home to popular tourist attractions such as St James’s Park and the South Bank, complete with London’s iconic Eye!, as well as the National Gallery located in neighbouring Trafalgar Square.
Rather than split between multiple different forms of transport whilst enjoying an afternoon of sightseeing or undertaking a planned Westminster school trip itinerary, why not hop on and off a driver operated minibus instead? Access can vary around the area, so the most suitable pick-up/drop-off points for organised group and school visits can vary, but please get in touch to enquire further and we’ll be happy to advise based on your specific requirements.
If you are planning a Westminster school trip, don’t forget to take accessibility requirements into consideration and allow plenty of time at each stop, particularly if advance booking is required to gain entry to certain Westminster landmarks and attractions!
With numerous restaurants, hotels and event venues, the City of Westminster makes an ideal base for a wedding or special celebration, and our minibus hire service could help keep guests shuttling smoothly between Westminster ceremony/reception venues and accommodation.
Likewise, those visiting the West End to enjoy concerts or theatre could benefit from travelling together in a shared minibus, so consider choosing a convenient pick-up/drop-off point and setting a suitable time to regroup before returning journeys begin.
As always, exact access arrangements will vary, so please provide as much information as possible, including precise collection/entry points where possible, so we can put together the most suitable minibus or coach hire option for your special event or Westminster wedding party.
