Our Story

Among the memories of "how it was then" we recall the start of the package holiday, the "bargain break" bedrooms which did not have beverage trays and televisions. We also recall the way our coaches were taken on board cross-channel ferries, lifted on by crane - a very worrying experience and a far cry from the present day drive on drive off ferries and cross-channel trains on and under the channel. Kirbys were among a very few coaches to travel abroad in those days. We have kept up with the times, with our modern fleet of luxury coaches. Equipped with all the available refinements they are some of the most comfortable coaches on the road to-day. Our experienced and knowledgeable drivers are courteous and helpful... We offer a selection of coach holidays which include some of the favourite places we have visited during 68 years as well as some 'new' destinations and we look forward to the pleasure of your company. Whichever coach holiday you choose, you can be sure of our usual care for your comfort and enjoyment, our careful selection of hotels and carefree travel on our luxury coaches. Let us care for you as we have been caring for our friends during the past 68 years and join us for your best ever day out or holiday this year.
