Coach hire in Paris and France for UK groups<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Bringing a school, club or tour group from the UK to France? TDS Travel provides coach hire with an English-speaking driver<\/strong> from Paris: pick-up at Gare du Nord when you arrive by Eurostar, airport transfers from CDG, Orly or Beauvais, and day trips or multi-day tours across France.<\/p>\n

Our office is at 32 boulevard de Strasbourg in central Paris, a few minutes’ walk from Gare du Nord. You book directly with the coach company, not with a broker.<\/p>\n

Travelling by Eurostar? We meet you at Gare du Nord<\/h2>\n

Many UK groups now travel to Paris by Eurostar and need a coach on arrival rather than bringing their own across the Channel. Your coach and driver wait for the group near Gare du Nord, load the luggage and take you straight to your hotel or first visit. The same coach can stay with you for the whole trip and take you back to the station for your return train. Read our guide to group coach transfers from Eurostar at Gare du Nord<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

Coaches and minibuses for every group size<\/h2>\n

All vehicles are air-conditioned, fitted with seat belts and luggage holds, and meet European safety and emission standards. French coaches are left-hand drive with the passenger door on the right, so passengers step out on the pavement side, not into the traffic.

School trips to France<\/h2>\n

We regularly carry school groups on educational trips: Paris museums and monuments, Versailles, the Normandy D-Day beaches, the Somme battlefields, language and cultural visits. Coaches are sized to the number of pupils and staff, and routes respect EU driving-hour rules: a driver can drive up to 9 hours a day, with a 45-minute break after 4.5 hours. See our article on British school trips to France by coach<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
