Quotes are based on several things: how long you need the vehicle, the distance travelled, the number of journeys and the time of year. Each quote comes directly from the supplier, so you receive their best price straight away.

Yes. The Routemaster London Bus comes with a professional chauffeur, who drives you for the whole of your hire. Passenger numbers don't include the chauffeur: this vehicle seats 73 in total, that's 72 passengers plus your chauffeur.

It depends on your plans. Allow time for every pick-up, the journeys between them, any photos and the trip home. For proms and nights out, 3 to 4 hours is common; for corporate events and airport transfers, book the time each journey needs. You can mention your plans when you request a quote and the supplier will advise. If your plans change nearer the date, just let the supplier know: they'll be happy to help adjust your timings and add extra time where they can.

Ask the supplier when you request your quote and they'll let you know what is allowed. Smoking and vaping aren't allowed. A cleaning charge may apply if the vehicle is left needing extra cleaning.
