Independent family-owned coach holiday group, Daish’s Holidays has invested more than £955,000 in four new luxury coaches as part of an ongoing measure to continually upgrade its UK fleet.

Four Mercedes-Benz Tourismo ‘23 plate vehicles replace older models in its fleet of 35 coaches. This will ensure more than 100,000 passengers each year can continue to travel in style from pick-up points across the UK, stretching from west Yorkshire to Cornwall, and enjoy the latest in comfort and luxury.

The new coaches will clock-up almost 100,000 km per year transporting holidaymakers to and from one of the 12 hotels in the Daish’s portfolio. Each vehicle is fitted with an engine designed to reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency, and includes 53 seats with fold-out tray tables and adjustable footrests, toilets and an extensive luggage capacity for passengers’ bags.

Paul Harper, commercial director at Bournemouth-based Daish’s Holidays, said: “We’re pleased to welcome four new vehicles to upgrade our fleet. This is a significant investment and is part of an ongoing measure to continually upgrade our coach fleet with the most efficient, comfortable, and environmentally friendly vehicles available. We are set to make further investment during 2024 to ensure continuous improvement to our fleet.”

The driver’s workplace in the Tourismo coach is designed with safety and comfort in mind and includes a heated seat and a rear-view camera with a dashboard-integrated display to ensure rear-view safety.

Paul added: “We are committed to providing our holidaymakers with high quality holidays as well as the highest standards of safety and comfort when they choose to travel with us. We’re sure our customers will enjoy the comfort and stylish interior features of the new coaches, and we look forward to welcoming them onboard.”

The new Tourismo coaches delivered to Daish’s Holidays were supplied by Mercedes-Benz Coach Sales at Daimler Buses UK Ltd.
