What to See and Do in Derby

The Derby Cathedral is one historical attraction that you can hire a coach to go and see when in the region. This 14th-century cathedral houses several medieval tombs. Bess Hardwick is one notable figure that lays to rest in the monument. It is believed the Cathedral was built in AD 943 and belonged to the Anglo-Saxon King. The restructuring of the church was done in the 24th century, so the church offers a lot to marvel at for anyone who loves architectural history. The cathedral has a tower that measures 212 feet, which since 2006, has been sheltering two peregrine falcons that breed there. You can schedule a group tour to go and see the tower.

The Derby Museum & Art Gallery is a favorite stop for both visitors and locals. It houses some historically rich works of art like paintings from Derby's own, Joseph Wright. There is a larger archaeology gallery that is perfect for educational trips. Ceramics from Royal Crown Derby are also on display in the museum. Guests can also see exhibitions from other cultures and some military collections. The Silk Mill holds evidence of the part that Derby played in the industrial revolution. Formerly the Derby Industrial Museum, the Silk Mill sits on what used to be Lombe's Mill, one of the most famous silk Mill's in the region. The museum holds artifacts of the silk industry and some war-related memorabilia.

What You Get with Derby Bus Hire

What difference does it make to hire a bus for your travel needs as opposed to other vehicles?

Reduced Costs

Transportation costs can add up quite fast if you don't know how to manage them. Imagine planning transportation for thirty wedding guests who have to travel 20 km out of the city centre. If you had to use minivans or small cars for all these people, the expenses would be astronomical. However, with Derby coach hire, you would only need one 30 or 32-seater for transport. Using one vehicle for everyone also provides cost savings in terms of fuel.

Choice of variety 

When hiring a coach for your various transportation requirements, you are assured of more than one type of vehicle. Our fleet, for instance, consists of mid-sized buses that accommodate 30-35 passengers and large ones that can carry up to 72. With such options, you don't have to compromise when it comes to finding a comfortable vehicle for group travel. The number of passengers will dictate the right package. With coach hire, you don't have to worry about passengers getting stiff necks or aching backs due to sitting in cramped spaces. The roomy interiors allow for comfortable travel even on long distances. Customers also have the option of standard and executive bus hire.
