Couldn’t help enough!

I’ve just called to get a quote which Selwyns could not facilitate, but the gentleman I spoke to in the sales team went to the effort of finding 9 other coach companies I could try and passing on their numbers. Amazing service and I will definitely use Selwyns first going forward!!

Appalling attitude towards their passengers.

Absolutely sick of the appalling bus service they run in Stockport. Their 382 service running between Stockport centre and Woodley has let my girlfriend down COUNTLESS times! Leaving her stranded and having to complete a 2 mile walk alone and in the dark. The buses either never appear or as in the last run of the day just before 7pm, goes ten minutes early so the drivers can clock off early for the day! Despite being told via email and telephone, the management have not stopped this practice. They should all hang their unprofessional heads in shame. They don't care about their customers including vulnerable ones including older travellers or females . They disgust me! Do NOT RELY on this company.

Holy Island with Mustafa

We have just had a 5 day holiday in the North East (Holy Island) and one of your lovely drivers made everything very pleasant. Your company must have been sub contracted to do this tour for a Midland Coach Company. Well done and thank you Mustafa! You are a great asset to your company.

Friday 2nd July.Dangerous driver…

Friday 2nd July.Dangerous driver overtaking three cars, nearly forced me off the road on the coast road heading to Southport from Formby. Had to brake heavily with caravan on the back, If we had got much closer I would have ended up in the sand hills

Good company, professional and accommodating.

I have used Selwyns a number of times for school trips and never had an issue with them. They were even willing and able to accommodate a last minute change for us politely and professionally with no hassle.
Good company. We will use them again.
