Groups and delegations. Everybody arrives together, or it has not worked.
Six partners from three hotels. A visiting delegation of twenty with interpreters and security. A family of nine with skis. The vehicles are the simple part. The schedule is what we are actually being asked to get right.

The service
Your whole party arrives together, however many cars it takes
Group transport goes wrong in predictable ways. One car is sent to the wrong hotel entrance. Two vehicles arrive and a third is fifteen minutes behind, so nobody can start. The party splits at the airport because one passenger came through immigration an hour after the others. Nobody knows which vehicle has the luggage.
So we plan a group movement as one thing with several parts. A single schedule listing every vehicle, every chauffeur, every pick-up point and time, and every passenger by name. One person at our operations desk holding it, and one number for whoever is running the trip, usually an assistant or an events manager rather than anybody travelling.
For most groups the answer is several vehicles rather than one large one. Two or three chauffeur-driven cars move more easily through a city, reach addresses a coach cannot, and are far simpler to position at an airport or a venue. Where a larger vehicle genuinely is the right answer, we say so and arrange it.
Sizing it
How many of you, and what that means
| Party size | What we would normally suggest | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 4 to 7 with luggage | One V-Class from our own fleet | Everybody together, cases for all of you, and sliding doors that make an airport kerb easy. |
| 8 to 14 | Two or three vehicles, usually V-Class | Easier to position at hotels and venues than one large vehicle, and the party can split sensibly by destination. |
| Principals travelling with a wider party | An S-Class plus V-Class support | The principal travels as they normally would and the rest of the party stays with them. |
| 15 and above | A fleet of cars, or a larger vehicle arranged for you | Ask us about availability. Beyond our own S-Class and V-Class, larger vehicles are arranged and confirmed for your dates before we quote. |
Luggage matters as much as headcount. A V-Class carrying seven people carries less than a V-Class carrying five. Tell us both numbers and we will tell you honestly what fits.
How it works
From a list of names to a movement plan
- 01
Send the list
Names, where each person starts, where they need to be and when. Flight numbers where people are arriving from elsewhere.
- 02
We build the schedule
Vehicles, chauffeurs, pick-up points and times, written out so you can circulate it and correct it before anything is confirmed.
- 03
One desk runs the day
Flights are tracked, chauffeurs report in, and changes on the day go through one person rather than seven separate conversations.
- 04
Multi-day trips stay consistent
The same chauffeurs and the same vehicles across a visit wherever we can, so nobody is re-explaining anything on the second morning.
What is included
The details that keep a group together
- A written movement schedule with every vehicle, chauffeur name and mobile number
- Meet and greet inside the terminal for arriving parties, with one chauffeur nominated to hold the group
- Flight tracking on every arrival, so vehicles move with the aircraft rather than the booking
- Luggage planned separately from passengers, including which vehicle carries what
- Interpreters, assistants and staff seated with the party or in a following vehicle, as you prefer
- Our own chauffeurs and vehicles in London and Manchester, and operators we know elsewhere, always said plainly
The vehicles
What we run, and what we arrange
Mercedes-Benz V-Class
Up to 7 passengers, our own fleet
The workhorse of group travel. Seats that often face each other, sliding doors on both sides and room for a case per passenger.
Mercedes-Benz S-Class
Up to 3 passengers, our own fleet
Used alongside the V-Class when a principal, a chair or a guest of honour should travel separately from the main party.
Larger vehicles
Arranged on request
Minibuses and coaches for larger delegations are arranged rather than run from our own fleet. Ask us about availability for your dates and we will confirm before quoting.
Who books this

Tell us how many, and where from
Numbers, luggage, the addresses at both ends and the dates. We come back with a vehicle plan, a draft schedule and a clear price, and we confirm any vehicle beyond our own fleet before it appears in a quote. Nothing is booked or charged online.

Questions people ask
About group travel
Do you have coaches and minibuses?
Our own fleet in London and Manchester is Mercedes-Benz S-Class and V-Class. Larger vehicles are arranged for you rather than owned by us, so please ask about availability for your dates and we will confirm before quoting.
Several cars or one large vehicle?
For most groups, several cars. They reach addresses a coach cannot, they are easier to position at hotels, airports and venues, and if one is delayed the rest of the party is not held up with it.
How do you keep everyone together at an airport?
One chauffeur is nominated to meet and hold the group inside the terminal while the others bring vehicles forward. We track every flight, so a party arriving on different aircraft is still planned as one movement.
Who do we call on the day?
One number. The operations desk holds the whole schedule, so you are not calling individual drivers to find out where the third vehicle is.
Can you handle groups outside London and Manchester?
Yes. Outside those two cities the vehicles are arranged through operators we know, planned and run to the same schedule, and we tell you which is which.
