Children under 5 years of age, by law must have their own seat to travel in, therefore, we are unable to offer free child seat places. We have a policy whereby we do not permit babies in arms. Coaches have a standard car type seat belt arrangement, so passengers are welcome to bring car seats/boosters.
All taxi/private hire drivers are DBS checked to an enhanced level either with Durham County Council or Newcastle City Council. This forms part of their Hackney Carriage/Private Hire licencing requirement. All of our bus/coach drivers that are deployed in the transportation of children and/or vulnerable adults are also DBS checked to an enhanced level. These checks are administered by Durham County Council.
- Taxis/Privat Hire cars – well behaved dogs are welcome, however we must be advised at the time of booking that there will be a dog traveling so we can allocate a pet friendly car. If you have an assistance/service dog there is no need to notify us in advance.
- Buses – we’re proud to welcome assistance and service dogs aboard our buses. Well behaved dogs are also allowed to travel at no charge.
- Coaches – assistance dogs and service dogs can travel, however, pet dogs unfortunately can not travel without prior consent.
I’m not sure how we can link this in, but the pickups are on the 2025 Day Trip Brochure.
