I also want to thank the office staff for their amazing customer service. We all felt very looked after by Reays and will be intouch for future bookings.

Good morning,

Just wanted to show our appreciation for our two drivers again this past weekend.

Same as our last trip, nothing was too much trouble for them and everything ran smoothly even though the weather was dreadful.

These 2 are an asset to your team.

Kind regards

Good afternoon

I’d just like to pass on my thanks to the driver of our Keswick School. Last Friday (26th) we were unexpectedly late for the bus and he kindly waited a minute or so for us to catch up. It was greatly appreciated.

Kind regards

Good afternoon,

Please would you pass my comments onto your transport manager and anyone else you think would be interested.

We have just returned from our first trip with you and I cannot thank your drivers enough.

Nothing was too much trouble for them, they were fantastic throughout the whole trip. They were patient and pleasant throughout.

They represented your company and the high standards you must hold your drivers to impeccably.

I cannot thank you enough for letting these 2 drivers take our trip.

I also would like to request them to drive us again if possible for our next trip to Middlesex. If possible we would like to have one or the other on all our trips this year.

Please pass on my thanks and the thanks of everyone on our coach.

Excellent lads and excellent service.

Kind regards

Hilary

Can i just say a great thank you for our daytrip to Whitby yesterday, they were great, as was the two young men that took us to Penrith and back. It was the first time out of West Cumbria for us in 18 months and we enjoyed our day very much.

So many thanks

5th August 2021

This is a very late "Thank you" but I would like to say how much my daughter and I enjoyed our trip to the Hampton Court Garden Festival and Kew Gardens a couple of weeks ago. We had never been on a coach trip before and were very impressed. The timing and organisation were superb, and our driver was wonderful.

I'd like to mention Coughton Court, where we stopped on the way down. As a substitution, it became one of the highlights of our visit and we'd love to go back. The hotel (also a substitute I believe) was lovely. It looked more welcoming than the Heathrow Holiday Inn scheduled. We feel fortunate to have had such a great experience for our first. It goes without saying that Hampton Court and Kew were amazing.

Thank you again for a memorable tour.

I returned from a five day trip to Torquay on Friday. I wish to extend my gratitude and best wishes to the driver Alan, I believe his surname is Taylor. His local knowledge of Devon made all the difference to the holiday and his expertise and sense of fun added pleasure to the holiday. Therefore will you please pass on my very best wishes to Alan and tell him I hope to travel with him again in the near future. The girls in your Office are also to be commended for their professionalism .

12th July 2021

Reays Holiday Hampton Court Flow Show

A wonderful weekend to Hampton court flower show. We travelled to Coughton Court on Friday. A wonderful home and we were greeted by Imogen and then taken on a garden tour by head gardener Jamie. Then travelled on to the Holiday Inn at Sutton . Checkin, evening meal and breakfast were good. Saturday had been amazing and despite a little rain the Hampton Court flower show was as good as ever.

Sunday we have a day at Kew Gardens returning back to Cumbria late tomorrow evening.

None of this would be half as much fun without the skill, patience humour and consideration of our driver David. I certainly wouldn't want to drive through Friday rush hour in London or negotiate small country lanes in Warwickshire. Well organised , lovely transport, a good driver and amazing places to visit. What's not to like!

I would like to advise that both the Headteacher and teachers in attendance were extremely impressed with the driver; she was forward thinking and had done some research prior to the journey which meant they only needed to complete a five minute walk as opposed to the usual 20 minute walk. They would prefer to have her on any future trips. She is a credit to the business.

11th October 2019

We recently used yourselves for our Wedding to return guests who stayed over night. Firstly I would like to thank the drivers and just let you know how good they were with us all.

28th August 2019

Private Hire

I would just like to thank one of your drivers who was on duty on Sunday from the Howtown Outward Bound Centre in The Lake District. Despite arriving at 1pm for our 2pm pick up, there were some issues on the road near the centre with cars being parked along a tight road meaning the coach was unable to get to the centre to pick us up. This could have been a highly stressful situation however he was pleasant and calm throughout which made a massive difference to our attitudes when we were eventually able to set off from Howtown back to Glasgow just after 3.30pm with our group. We were very grateful for the drivers positivity and calmness and it meant that it did not end our weekend on a low so I just wanted to email to say thank you for this.

I would just like to email regarding a booking I had on Saturday through yourselves going to Murrayfield and back. I cannot praise our driver enough! We were obviously very excited because of where we were going and also a bit merry and he was so patient with us.

He stopped when we asked him and he also let us sync the phone up so we could play our music on the way (Spice girls cant be easy for everyone to listen to!) nothing at all was a bother for him, and honestly I just want you so to say thank you to him from us all!

He really made the journey enjoyable!! I have used Reays before and I will 100% be using you again!!!

Just a quick message to pass on our thanks to Reays and our driver. I have just returned from a residential trip to London with my class of 11 year olds. Our coach was just amazing - so clean and comfortable. The driver was great. He was so helpful and always on time which makes a potentially stressful time much easier. There was a lot going on in London during our visit and he did a great job getting us from A to B on time.

23rd May 2019

Tour

I would like to say that our driver was a fabulous. Not only was he professional in the way he dealt with the group, but his knowledge, expertise and willingness to share with us went over and beyond anything I could have expected. One of our group lost their luggage on the way over, and was told they might not get it back before the end of the trip. He went out of his way to facilitate getting their bags to them as soon as possible. He helped me with getting the information and tickets I needed for the group. He stopped at places along the way to enrich the trip and add information we would not have been able to see as per our itinerary. I could go on and on about what makes him so special, but suffice it to say I am very impressed with him. I would hope that I could use him for other trips in the future

22nd May 2019

I have had the pleasure of being part of a fabulous “bucket trip” tour group. our driver for the week, He did a marvelous job. He offered us so much history and information that we would not have had otherwise. He facilitated retrieving bags for another one of our group that the airline lost. He went over and above and he melded with our group. Gary really enhanced our trip!!! Will ask to use him again in the future

Private school transport parent

It’s brilliant you can pick up at Boltongate. You’d be amazed how many parents are limited by school choice because buses don’t pick up from their own village and their work hours cannot allow for pick up and drop offs whilst they are supposed to be at work. I’m sure parents at my younger child’s school will be very interested to hear how flexible and adaptable Reays are being with transport to and from Keswick School. Thanks again and please thank Nicola and Chris on our behalf. I look forward to getting timetables with Boltongate on in mid August. Have a great Summer in the meantime!

Hi, I was one of the group members on a coach To Carlisel Racecourse on Saturday and I just wanted to get in touch to thank your driver for being such a pleasure to deal with. Right from the moment we got on the bus he was warm and friendly. Right through to when we were encouraging him to “be aggressive” when trying to get out of the car park at the race course. Everyone that I’ve spoken to who attended that event have said how much of a nightmare they had getting home. I’ve sang Reays praises because we had a hilarious bus driver who made the bus journey so enjoyable!

Can I just say on behalf of Seascale golf club ladies section a massive thankyou to Reays and your driver Martin for staying with us on Thursday night. It was so much appreciated. We did not expect to win the county championship and therefore expected to be well ready to go home early. Having held the lead from the morning it would of been a shame not to be there at the end for the presentation. Unfortunately the play got slower as the day went on and so the expected finish time was well later than expected. Martin is a credit to your firm. A lovely gentleman who added to a brilliant day. Can you please pass on our appreciation to him and apologise for the singing on the bus on the way home. Many thanks again.

Private Hire

Thank you very much for your excellent quality coach and also the service from the driver on the day. Not panicking whilst waiting for a skip to be unloaded, delivering us all on time and then taking the cake to the reception. Great stuff.

Just Go Holidays passenger, Tour

We have just finished a tour with Just Go holidays covering Kilkenny and the Wicklow mountains and I would like to let you know just how impressed we were with your coach and in particular with your driver Andy. Throughout the week we were aware of, and reassured by, Andy's presence but at all times he stayed in the background and left things to the tour representative, although he was always happy to converse with any members of the party. In addition to the above I would also like to say how smooth and calm Andy's driving was, he is a credit to your company.

Age UK Allerdale, Private Hire

Just wanted to say 'thank you' to Ned, the driver who took our group from Age Uk Allerdale on the outing to the Museum and Houghton Hall Garden Centre last Friday. Ned was a cheerful, excellent driver and my friend and I really enjoyed the music selection! Once again, thanks and we look forward to our next trip out with yourselves.

15th May 2018

Manchester United Supporters Club, Private Hire

The 2017/18 season is now over and the group would like me to express our thanks to Reays for the quality of service provided throughout the season. The coaches were top quality and each driver performed their duties expertly, we would like you to thank them on our behalf. We now have a break for the Summer but the new season will come around quickly and we look forward to continuing travelling with Reays.

Lakes Distillery, Private Hire

We booked a private hire coach to the Lakes Distillery yesterday and I just wanted to say how brilliant it was! From the booking process onwards everything was really straight forward! I particularly wanted to mention our driver ‘Bertie’ he was so friendly and made the journey awesome! He was right on time and ready waiting to take us back home! We need more bus drivers like Bertie!!!!

I would like to thank Reays for making our trip to Port Vale on Saturday a success. Please pass on our thanks to John the driver we had on Saturday he is a credit to the company and made a good day even better. I hope to book coaches with you again next season and will most definitely be requesting John as our driver. Thanks again.

23rd April 2018

Castle Green, Private Hire

On behalf of my colleagues and I we would like to thank you and your driver at Reays for being accommodating with us and taking us to Castle Green on the 16th April. Our numbers changed quite significantly and you were very helpful throughout.

16th April 2018

Torquay

Alan, the coach driver was great. A good driver with a joke or two included. Provided good information to help his passengers have as good a holiday as possible.

15th April 2018

Normandy, Air Cadets annual trip

I am one of the Officers accompanying the cadets on the trip around the battlefield sites in Normandy and also the PR Officer for Cumbria & Lancashire Wing ATC.

We have been so grateful for the help and support your company have given us to complete this trip. But it would be remiss of me to not say a few words about the main driver you have given us, Mark.

Mark has been integral to the group all week. His military background complimented everything we did and his enthusiasm has been boundless. He is a brilliant asset and Ambassador for your company. Hopefully we can use him again for more trips in the future.

I would also like to thank you for your continued support for the Air Cadet organisation as a whole and particularly Workington Sqn and their minibus. We couldn’t function without support from groups such as yourselves.

10th April 2018

Manchester Airport, Private Hire

I would like to compliment both our drivers that drove us to Manchester airport and return, they were both so pleasant and helpful with nothing being too much trouble for them. Both are a credit to your firm.

14th April 2018

Grand National

Alan the driver was excellent!

3rd April 2018

Paris, school trip

Now that we are safely back from our trip to Paris, I wanted to send my thanks to your drivers, Jonny, David and Mark who were all efficient and courteous.

Mark was with us most of the time and his skill in driving in challenging conditions was exemplary. It is not easy to negotiate the Arc de Triomphe at rush hour in a car, never mind a coach full of exciteable teenagers, but he remained calm and capable at all times, even on the return journey when we encountered the M1 at a standstill. Mark found us another route and arranged a changeover with David.

It was very reassuring to have such an experienced driver in France with us and one who was another set of eyes to keep the group safe on various occasions, which was above and beyond his driving role.

You gave us the use of a fabulous coach and we hope we treated it with respect. It only remains to say thank you and that we will be using Reay's again in the future.

21st March 2018

Black Forest, Strasbourg school trip

I am writing to pass on our thanks regarding your drivers Ray and Kev.

They took our daughter and her school, Walton High, Stafford to Black Forest in Strasbourg over the weekend of 15th-19th March and according to our daughter they were 'amazing'. This included negotiating a good bout of snowy weather. Once again, many thanks.
