Luxury coach hire with driver
Hire a coach with driver for your business events
For groups larger than thirty, a touring coach becomes the most practical option: a single meeting point, a single vehicle to follow, and a cost per passenger that is incomparable to that of a fleet of minibuses. TDS Events offers you... Coaches with 30 to 63 seats and a professional driver for your congresses, seminars, excursions and sporting trips, in Paris as well as throughout France.
Hiring a coach does not mean hiring without a driver.
We are a passenger transport company, not a car rental company. The service always includes the vehicle, fuel, insurance, and a driver holding a category D license and a driver qualification cardYou have no driving to provide, no parking to organize, and no mandatory rest periods to monitor.
A touring coach and a scheduled bus are not the same vehicle.
The difference is noticeable from the very first hour of the journey. The city bus is designed for short trips, often standing. Theluxury coach It is designed for long periods of sitting: reclining seats, luggage compartment, sound insulation that allows you to work or converse during the journey. It is this second format that we utilize.

A coach with 30 to 63 seats for your large groups
The threshold at which the coach becomes necessary
For groups of thirty or more, splitting a group across several minibuses multiplies the number of meeting points, potential delays, and the overall cost. A coach solves this problem all at once: everyone departs and arrives together, and the event organizer only needs to deal with one person.
From 30 to 63 passengers depending on the model
Our coaches cover the entire range of capacity required for corporate events. The exact number of available seats will be confirmed in the quote, depending on the dates and the amount of luggage to be carried.
The best cost per passenger
For group travel, this format offers the best balance between comfort and cost per person. It also avoids connections and last-mile transfers when the destination is not directly served.
Equipment and comfort on board
An interior designed for long journeys
Reclining seats with armrests, adjustable air conditioning, individual lighting: our coaches are equipped so that three hours on the road do not weigh on the workday that follows.
Sound system and public address
The onboard microphone allows a guide, facilitator, or event manager to address the group during the journey. This is often the time for the pre-arrival briefing or the post-trip debriefing.
Luggage, equipment and logistics
The lower storage compartments can accommodate the luggage of an entire group, as well as welcome kits, banners, and exhibition materials. Please inform us of any unusual volumes when requesting a quote, as they will influence the choice of vehicle.
VIP coach: when the presentation is part of the event
A vehicle that your guests will see before your event
For hosting a delegation, a product launch, or a gala evening, theVIP coach In addition to comfort, a certain level of presentation is required: a recent vehicle, impeccable cleanliness, and a chauffeur in uniform. Your guests' first impression of your event often takes place in the parking lot.
A chauffeur trained to cater to business clients
Our drivers do more than just drive. They understand the constraints of an event schedule: discreet waiting, punctuality to the quarter hour, adapting to the delay of a plenary session, welcoming passengers upon boarding.
And for small groups
For groups of fewer than thirty people, a coach is no longer the right option. Consider our VIP minibus with driver from 9 to 22 seats, or towards the VIP van with driver for a group of four to eight people.

Your questions about coach hire
How many seats does a coach have?
A touring coach can accommodate 30 to 63 passengers, depending on the model. For corporate events, the most popular sizes are between 50 and 60 seats, which covers most conference groups. For fewer than 30 participants, a minibus remains more flexible and less expensive.
What is the price of hiring a coach with a driver?
The price depends on the duration of service, mileage, number of passengers, time of year, and itinerary. A shuttle service for half a day and a three-day trip within the provinces are not calculated in the same way. We provide a free, personalized quote within 24 business hours.
What is the difference between a coach and a bus?
The bus, or coach, is an urban transport vehicle designed for short journeys with standing room. The coach is designed for longer trips and tourism: individual reclining seats, luggage compartment, and sound system. For business trips lasting more than half an hour, the coach is the appropriate choice.
Can you rent a coach for several days?
Yes. We offer multi-day programs, with a vehicle and driver provided for the entire duration. The driver's driving and rest times are factored into the program from the initial quote stage, preventing any unpleasant surprises the day before departure.
Do you operate anywhere other than Paris?
Yes. We are based in Paris and operate throughout France, including Toulouse, Lyon, Bordeaux, Marseille, Nice, Lille and Strasbourg, as well as interregional connections and multi-day trips.
