Pegasus Coaches - the specialist school coach company owned by Voyager School Travel

Pegasus Coaches - the benchmark for school transport

If you've taken a group on a French language, ski or adventure trip with us, you've probably travelled on a Pegasus coach. But you may not know that Pegasus is actually owned by Voyager School Travel. We own our own coach fleet because we want to ensure that every element of your trip is top notch, including the transport, and that you can be confident of a safe and reliable coach journey.

Pegasus is a family-run company with a long-standing reputation for transporting school and student groups. In fact, in recognition of their expertise in student travel, Pegasus’ coaches are regularly commissioned by our competitors to transport their school groups too.

Though there are financial and logistical benefits to letting us organise your whole trip, schools based in the South of England can arrange their coach transport direct with Pegasus by clicking on the link below.

Travel safely on Voyager's very own coach fleet

With a base on the South Coast of England and another at our Normandy language centre in France, Pegasus offer a variety of vehicles to suit the needs of your school group from minibuses to double decker coaches which can comfortably accommodate up to 72 students and teachers.

Their modern fleet of executive coaches offer all the necessary amenities such as air conditioning, tea and coffee making facilities, USB ports and toilets which means your group can travel in comfort. They also offer luggage trailers making them perfect for long haul trips, ski trips and music tours.

Visit the Pegasus website to see the whole fleet.

Professional drivers selected for their experience with school groups

The quality of your driver can make or break a trip and so Pegasus drivers are selected for their professionalism, knowledge, and their ability to strike up a rapport with the group, working closely with the group leader to ensure a smooth and successful trip. Schools often have a favourite driver they request for their trips.

As you would expect, the safety of our groups is our utmost priority and so all Pegasus drivers are DBS checked and operate in strict accordance with UK and European legislation including those laws concerning seat belts and drivers' hours.

Excellent safety record

It is essential that school transport is reliable and on time and so all Pegasus coaches are checked on a daily basis for performance and safety, and are subject to a thorough inspection every six weeks to ensure that they meet current legislation and the regulations set out by the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA). If there is a problem, you will have the back up of Pegasus' large fleet of vehicles, and their own mobile mechanics, so your group will not be let down.

What's more, each vehicle adheres to stringent hygiene measures including a daily deep clean after use and a regular anti-microbial treatment which offer 30 days’ protection to all surfaces. Finally, their 72 seater double decker coaches provide plenty of space for passengers to maintain a social distance.

Don't go it alone - use a one stop shop

There are plenty of benefits to using a travel expert rather than organise elements of the trip yourself. We are one of the only school trip organisers with their own fleet of coaches, which means that you will benefit from preferential coach rates, door to door service and drivers who specialise in school groups.

What's more, by booking all the elements of your trip as a package, you can be sure that we will own every detail. So, should you should encounter a problem on your trip, we will work directly with our Pegasus colleagues to sort it out quickly. That’s why we can guarantee that we’ll never leave you stranded.

“I have to say that our experience with Pegasus is up there with the best. The coach was perfect, including the access to coffee making facilities and all of the drivers so professional and courteous. Special mention must go to our main drivers Kay and Dennis. They were absolutely wonderful and a joy to work with. There is no doubt that their contribution to the trip ensured the success that it was.”
