School Trips & Visits
Museums, theatres, theme parks, field trips and the seaside. We’ll collect from school and bring everyone back in time for home time.
Sports Fixtures
Matches, tournaments and sports days, with room for the whole squad, kit bags and supporters.
Swimming Lessons
Regular runs to the pool and back, booked for the whole term so you don’t have to arrange it week by week.
Residential Trips
We’ll take pupils, staff and luggage to the residential centre and collect them again at the end of the stay.
Airport Transfers
Going abroad on a school tour? We’ll get the group and their luggage to the airport, and be there to bring them home.
Home-to-School Routes
Regular daily school transport, including our fully belted, PSVAR-compliant 80-seat double-decker.
Whole Year Groups
From 48 seats up to 80 on the double-decker, and more than one vehicle when you need it, so everyone travels together.
Simple to Book
One point of contact, a clear quote and an invoice to the school, so the trip leader can get on with planning the day.
Paperwork for Your Risk Assessment
Trip leaders and business managers need the right documents before a trip can be signed off. Just ask and we’ll send them over.
Leap Travel is a DVSA Earned Recognition accredited operator, so our vehicle maintenance and drivers' hours records are shared with DVSA every four weeks and independently audited.
