Has anyone used Gavin's Travel for group transport? If so, any feedback? If not, any recommendations?

Where are you wanting to travel from and where are you heading to?

Is this for a one way journey or are you wanting group travel for a longer period?

How big is the group?

We are looking for a 16 seater from Glasgow city center to Loch Lomond, a stop or two on the way back to city center.

Gavin's Travel looks to be based on Heathrow, and to maybe be some kind of a consolidator. I've never seen any of their vehicles anywhere in the UK.

I'd be looking to hire a local company with proven knowledge of the area, and a company who can be trusted, who have a demonstrable track record, and a fleet of vehicles to call on.

Two who immediately spring to mind who I know (from using them on scheduled services) and would trust are McColls- https://www.mccolls.org.uk/private-hire and Garelochhead Coaches- https://www.garelochheadcoaches.co.uk/coach-hire/

Another big operator (and I mean big) in the area are West Coast Motors- https://westcoastmotorsprivatehire.co.uk/our-fleet/

(they have a Glasgow depot and are the people who run the tour buses on the Isle of Mull, so are well known on the forum)

Nationally in Scotland are Rabbies who also do private hires- https://www.rabbies.com/en-gb/private-tours
