Top Coach Holiday Hacks
Going on a coach holiday is a great way to explore new places around the UK and the rest of Europe, all without having to worry about driving or planning your own route. With so many different places to visit and see, coach holidays are the perfect and stress-free way to explore new places. We have put together some of our top coach holiday hacks to make your trip an even better experience.
1. Pack light (if you can)
Of course, it is important to take everything you need away with you, you should also try to pack as light as possible. Don’t take things that you wont really need or smaller items that you could buy when you arrive at your destination. We also recommend taking a suitcase with wheels, if possible, to make it easier for you to move around with your luggage.
2. Make the most of discounts
Before booking any kind of coach holiday you should look at the discounts that are available to you. For example, we have Omega NHS discounts and an NHS discount for National Express journeys so you can enjoy a coach trip away for less. Once you arrive at your destination it is also worth looking for any NHS bus discounts to help you get across cities and towns to explore.
3. Utilise stops
Some people are put off by coach holidays because they worry about long journeys sat on a coach. But by taking plenty of things to keep you entertained throughout your journey will make the time pass even quicker. We also recommend that you utilise any stops along the way. Be sure to get off the coach, have a trip to the toilet and a little walk around. You’ll feel much better for it when you arrive at your destination.
4. Do your research before you go
There are so many different types of coach holidays that you can choose from, including days out to new places that don’t break the bank. So we recommend that you take your time and do your research before booking anything. Have a look at the itinerary for the trip, whether the stops interest you, and search for any reviews from previous passengers. That way you can be sure that you’ll have a good time.
