Group Airport Transfers in Bath

Bristol Airport (BRS) is about 25 km from the centre of Bath, close enough for a private group transfer to be the simplest way in or out of the city. Global Bus Hire arranges minibuses and coaches, each with a professional driver, so your group travels together from the arrivals area to its hotel, campus or venue.

We plan airport transfers in Bath for groups of every size, from a family of eight to a conference party filling a 70 seater coach. Tell us your flight details, passenger numbers and luggage, and we will send a tailored quote.

How Our Bath Airport Transfers Work

Booking takes four steps. Share your requirements, get a tailored quote, confirm and schedule, then relax and ride in comfort. You can contact us through the website or on WhatsApp.

The details that matter most are your flight number and times, the number of passengers, how much luggage you are bringing and your exact pick-up or drop-off addresses in Bath. Luggage can change the vehicle we recommend, so mention bulky items such as sports kit or instrument cases when you ask for a quote.

Return journeys, several pick-up points and split arrivals across the day can all go into one booking. Each journey is driven by a professional driver, which leaves your group free to focus on the trip.

Vehicles for Airport Groups

Our fleet runs from an 8 seater minibus to a 70 seater coach, and double deckers are available too. Smaller parties usually suit the 8 or 16 seater minibus. Mid-sized groups often fit the 25 seater midi coach or the 29 and 33 seater coaches.

Larger groups such as wedding parties, conference delegates and touring teams usually need the 49, 57 or 70 seater coaches. If your group is too large for one vehicle, we can quote for several vehicles timed to the same arrival.

The table below lists seating for each vehicle in our fleet. When you choose a size, allow for luggage as well as passengers, and ask us if you are unsure.

Airports and Stations Around Bath

Bristol Airport (BRS) is the nearest airport, about 25 km from the centre of Bath. Cotswold Airport (GBA) is about 38 km away. We can arrange transfers to and from either one, depending on where your flight lands or departs.

Some groups arrive by rail. Bath Spa station is about 0.5 km from the city centre and Oldfield Park is about 1.4 km away. Freshford, Avoncliff and Avon Riverside are each between about 6 and 8 km out. Bath Bus Station is about 0.4 km from the centre. If part of your group arrives by train or coach, we can collect them from any of these points as well as from the airport.

Many arrivals head straight for the historic core around The Roman Baths, The Pump Room and Bath Abbey. Others go to the Apex Conference Centre, the University of Bath campus about 2.4 km out, or Bath Racecourse about 4.9 km from the centre. Exact pick-up and drop-off points depend on access at each address, which we confirm when you book.
