Mamma Mia Party Experience

I had such an amazing time for the Mamma Mia Party! From the moment we got on the bus both Sam and Ken took very good care of us all and gave us detailed updates off where we were going and stopping and so on. We had such a stunning hotel stay as well as good seating for the party. We were driven to and from everything so we didnt have to sort transport to anything. Both Sam and Ken were kind and very accomadating to everyone on the bus! Honestly such a trip to remember and I would defiantly reccommend it to anyone who hasnt gone!! Thank you again for such an amazing trip away.

Girls Weekend

What a fantastic weekend away in London with friends for Mamma Mia The Party.

Sam and Ken our drivers were absolutely first class brilliant drivers and great company! After a few hours exploring London, we headed back to the Holiday Inn for the night. The hotel was lovely , with beautiful clean rooms a bar and a restaurant. Breakfast was included and there was a fantastic selection of hot and cold food to set us up for the day.

After breakfast, we made our way to the O2, with Ken giving us a guided tour of some of London's famous sights along the way.

Then came the highlight of the weekend - Mamma Mia. the show was outstanding. We had fantastic seats and the four course meal was delicious.

After the show it was straight home with Ken keeping the party atmosphere going on the bus by playing all the classics.

Highly recommend this great value for money amazing weekend to everyone.

Great memorable coach trips!!

We are a group of 10 friends who often take trips away but are not fans of coach trips. We booked the mamma Mia weekend in London with Coracle coaches despite never even heard of them prior to this trip. I must say this trip was so fantastic, we were welcomed onto the coach by two amazing people (Ken and Sam) who kept us well informed throughout the weekend. Smooth pick ups along the M4 corridor which got us to London in good time. On arrival we had enough time in London to do a little exploring, good communication from Ken and Sam in getting everyone back to the bus and onward to our hotel for the night. The hotel was fantastic, lovely food and comfortable rooms. Mamma Mia was exceptional and enjoyed by all.
Our group of 10 females are now excited to travel again with coracle and booked our next trip whilst in the coach home.
I cannot thank Ken and Sam enough for making this trip such a wonderful experience. Definitely five stars from all 10 of us !! THANK YOU 😁

Great value!! Amazing overnight trip.


What an amazing overnight trip from start to finish! We were picked up from Cardiff Gate and dropped off at Marble Arch, where we had plenty of free time to enjoy London before heading back to our hotel. In fact some passengers managed a matinee show but we headed to Madam Tussards and the London Eye, still leaving plenty of time for tube travel, meals etc.

The Holiday Inn Heathrow was stunning — a lovely hotel and a great place to stay after a busy day.

On Sunday mid day we were dropped off for Mamma Mia! The Party, which was absolutely fantastic, and afterwards we were picked up and driven home. The drive to the O2 was a mini bus tour, saw the Tower of London, London Bridge etc... Everything was so well organised and completely stress-free.

My daughter is 12 and was the youngest on the coach, and I have to give a special mention to the wonderful staff. They really made a fuss of her and went out of their way to make her feel safe, welcome and included. As a parent, that meant so much to me and made the whole experience even more special for us both.

The staff were absolutely brilliant — friendly, caring, helpful and professional throughout. Nothing was too much trouble and they really helped make the weekend one to remember.

We had an absolutely fantastic time and couldn’t fault a thing. Excellent value, excellent organisation and a brilliant experience from beginning to end. We would 100% book again!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended!

Highly recommend!!

Had a fab time with Coracle Coaches on our weekend trip to London. We did mamma Mia the party, and had the best time! We even managed to fit in a west end show on the Saturday🎭
A huge thank you to Ken and Sam for making everything run so smoothly. The organisation was fantastic, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better trip.
Would definitely recommend Coracle Coaches and can’t wait for the next one!

August mystery tour

I had a lovely time on the overnight mystery tour, with Ken, Sam and Fran.They was all very helpful and polite. Lovely to see people i have met before and also meeting new friends. We stayed in the Adelphi hotel in Liverpool, the room was lovely and staff were polite,and the breakfast was really nice. We had a tour around Liverpool showing us everything about the beatles, and then went to the Cavern.then free time.on 2nd day we went to Anfield football ground which was quite interesting. We then went to Cheshire Oaks for a shopping spree, before our journey home.I cannot wait to travel with Coracle Coaches again.

Lovely trip to London with Coracle

Just returned from a lovely weekend in London having booked through Travel House and our trip delivered by Coracle. First time to go with them, our driver was Sam and she was a great help and informative. Felt at ease with the drive up. Hotel was lovely. The only downside was I could have done with an itinerary weeks before so I could plan and book things in advance. Hence 1 star taken off. Overall we had a lovely time away with a nice group! Defo booking again

Great trip lovely Bus

Great trip lovely Bus - Sam the bus driver is great. Nothing was too much trouble for her. It was great that the pick up was at 6 pm on the Saturday which allowed us to go and see a matinee show. The booking process was easy and the timings all went as planned. We had a great great time. We definitely be using these again. Good value for money and lovely to spend two days in London.

Lovely London weekend and would definitely travel with Coracle again

This was my first trip with Coracle Coaches and I went on the London weekend special. Overall I had a lovely weekend and thought it was really good value, particularly with the hotel and breakfast included.

Sam, our driver, was lovely, friendly, professional and kept everyone updated throughout the weekend.

We unfortunately had a wing mirror damaged by a London bus on Saturday evening which was obviously completely outside anyone’s control, but Sam dealt with it calmly and kept us informed while it was sorted.

The Holiday Inn at Heathrow was excellent, with a really comfortable room, lovely breakfast and even a good little gym, and I thoroughly enjoyed both days in London.

The only reason I’ve given four rather than five stars is that we arrived into central London quite a bit later than I'd expected on the Saturday, which did reduce the amount of time available there. Coming from the far end of West Wales it's obviously a long journey, but I think slightly earlier departure time or reviewing some of the stops could perhaps help maximise the time in London.

That said, I had a great weekend, met some lovely people on the coach and came home feeling I’d definitely had my money’s worth.

I would happily book another Coracle trip, I’ve already been looking at other future London dates!
