Silver Service

Most coaches have 48 seats. Our Silver Service coaches have 36, giving you blissful extra legroom. With leather headrests, footrests, a magazine pocket, drop-down table - and even a personal audio headphone system - each luxury seat can be reclined further than normal for even greater comfort! Stretch out, and cruise in total comfort as you gaze through the tinted, double-glazed windows at Europe’s most breathtaking scenery. Fully air conditioned and temperature controlled, you’ll be forgiven for nodding off from time to time.

We’ve also introduced a satellite navigation display, so you can watch your journey’s progress. But wait until you visit the back of the coach. There’s a partitioned lounge area with luxury leather seats with seatbelts and a low-height table - the perfect place to read, chat or simply relax.

There’s also a toilet/washroom on board, a refrigerator and a servery unit from which you can be served a hot drink to enjoy while you take in a video or DVD, or listen to a tune being played on the coach’s radio, CD or tape player - what a choice! And the individual headphones will ensure those who wish to enjoy the peace and quiet aren’t interrupted!
