Party Bus Hire in London

The London Bus Party are experts at arranging and coordinating tailored entertainment packages that offer fun-packed nights and weekends in major cities across the UK. They also have some excellent advice when looking to hire a provider. Read on to find out about their exciting business.

What do you need to know from an organiser in order to provide a comprehensive quote?

In order for us to provide the best party bus experience and price, we really need to know how many guests you are planning on having at your party - this is is so we are able to provide the right level of host services. Secondly it is important that we know a pickup location and time as well as a destination postcode and arrival time in order to provide the correct quote for the duration and mileage of your party and finally what type of party you are going to be hosting, whether it be a birthday party, stag or hen bus party or if it is just a city tour of London.

What advice would you give to a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

The first piece of advice when looking for a party bus provider to host your epic bus party has to be how effective are they at communicating with you once you have provided them with your inquiry. We find at London Bus Party people really appreciate how quickly we respond to all our customer requests and the level of service we provide from the start of the process, this fills them with the confidence that we can deliver what we say we can - so if you don't get an immediate and personalised response from the company you are looking at, be wary that they may not be as organised as you need them to be and may let you down! Secondly, get pictures of the bus both internal and external so you can see that it is a fully customised double-decker party bus rather than just a bus. Finally look at their website/Facebook pages to see photos and experiences of previous parties and look for any negative comments or feedback, as if they have provided terrible service previously it could be you who suffers next time when their bus is late, breaks down or crashes into a low bridge (we have heard all of these things and more from competitors!) You have to have trust that your chosen party bus supplier will deliver a once in a lifetime experience.

Please tell us a little bit about how and why you started the business.

D2D Promotions have been running nightlife events for a couple of years now and it was time to take our experience in showing people an amazing time on foot to the streets of London, providing unforgettable parties coupled with tours of London and beyond. We had thought about running a limousine party but that wasn't big enough for us and we wanted to create a nightclub on wheels, hence the London Party Bus was born. Up to 65 people partying with a nightclub setup travelling down Oxford Street or past the London Eye, an experience people never forget!

Please tell us about a booking you've had through Add to Event, how did it go? Would you recommend us to others?

Add to Event has been fantastic for the London Party Bus and we have had many bookings through the platform all of which have been amazing, although one does stand out in terms of the great time they had! It was a staff Christmas party that was held in January (they ran a well-known nightclub) it was 30 people from bar staff to the owners, as you can imagine the bus was filled with booze and these guys could party! We picked them up in Central London and took them down to Brighton beach where the owner had said if they had a successful Christmas period he would skinny dip in the sea, luckily for him no one stole his clothes from the beach! Add to Event has helped my business grow and provides us with many opportunities to quote for great events and I would definitely recommend the platform to anyone looking to grow their events business.
