Welcome

Welcome to the blog page of Independent Bus Tours! 

Our mission is to run enthusiast tours featuring vehicles solely from Independent Bus operators, in particular those that are now much rarer to find on 'normal' service work. These trips provide a great day out in a variety of different places across the UK, and provide plenty of opportunity to photograph the vehicles we use. We will always try to include a depot visit (and lunch break) where possible!

Please click the links below for details on future trips - all are welcome to join us and there is no need to pre-book. As these vehicles have been privately hired, please contact me at stepbus2@gmail.com for further information - none of the bus operators listed will be able to help you. 

The fare you see quoted is the maximum cost per person to cover our private hire costs - this may be lowered on the day subject to sufficient passenger numbers, so the more the merrier!
