Rock Choir trips to Paris

Rock Choir has trusted Cozys with several multi-coach trips to Paris and Disneyland Paris. Here is what members said about our drivers.

“Could you please thank Chris so much for being such a great driver this weekend. The members all loved him and I am receiving lots of positive feedback.

Having done 4 tours this summer with Cozys it was really lovely to end the summer with a driver who worked with me to ensure the best possible experience for the members. It makes my job so much easier and I would really appreciate you passing on my thanks to him.”

Katrina, group organiser

“Katie, one of last weekend's choir leaders, wished me to pass on her thanks to Chris for being such a great driver. He had endless singing on his coach, often listening to the same songs multiple times and never complained - he just got involved in such a friendly manner.”

Katrina, group organiser

“I would like to say a big thank you to Chris who took Rock Choir to Paris over the weekend. He was very friendly and helpful and nothing was too much to ask if you needed help on or off the coach, with us all singing on the coach. If I need to hire a coach I would look at hiring Chris as a driver for our choir group.”

Terry Smith, Rock Choir, Croydon

“From the moment we were collected from our pick-up point at Sainsbury's in Tunbridge Wells, Ricky was our hero!

Giving us clear information throughout the weekend, always being there on time and actually probably early for every trip he drove us to and from. Being patient for those stragglers that are inevitable when dealing with so many people and, so importantly to us, allowing us to bore him on every single journey with songs he is most certainly bored to tears by, but still had a smile on his face.

A real gentleman - we could not have asked for a better driver to look after us. A star employee!”

Debbie Muggeridge, Rock Choir

“I was part of the group on the recent trip 17 - 20 August in the Pluto coach party with Ricky our driver. He was superb, kind and helpful with a lovely personality. His driving was smooth and steady, he showed that the safety and comfort of his passengers was his first priority. Obviously a very experienced driver.”

Helene Elves, owner of the Rock Choir CD which was played endlessly until even we had had enough!

“A fabulous 4 days away with our Rockies from Thanet, Canterbury AM & PM, Deal, Folkestone, Hythe, Hastings, Battle and Tunbridge Wells. All drivers were helpful, friendly, smart and couldn't accommodate our needs more readily. Your company should be so proud of you all.”

Rock Choir, Kent and East Sussex

“We have just got back from a four day trip to Paris with the Rock Choir. Our coach driver was a gentleman called Ricky - he was helpful, courteous, kind and good fun throughout the 4 day trip - please pass on my thanks to him and his colleagues.”

Jill Wright, Rock Choir

“Just wanted to let you know how great your drivers were on our trip to Paris last weekend. Taking five coach loads of Rock Choir members must have been quite daunting. We're not known for being meek and bashful! Our driver was brilliant. He entered into the spirit of the weekend and was always positive and helpful. We must have driven him mad at times but he and the other drivers smiled throughout! Many thanks for helping to make the trip so successful.”

Rosemary Osborn, Rock Choir

“Just a short email to say thank you to the driver Ricky for his endless patience and good humour on the recent Rock Choir trip to Paris. He put up with our singing, endless demands to get in and out of the coach, looking after our belongings and our general rowdiness. Thanks Ricky, we had a brilliant time.”

Lindsey O’Sullivan, Catherine Courtley Rock Choir, Folkestone

“Chris drove the Donald Duck coach to Paris last weekend with the Rock Choir on board. He was very polite considering the amount of singing he had to endure. A very good driver.”

Rock Choir

“I just wanted to leave some feedback on your drivers after our Rock Choir break to Paris and Disneyland. We had Phil as our driver who was friendly and entertaining... despite the awful jokes!

He was also great on our journey home as we had a minor medical issue going through passport control. My friend dropped her blood pressure and although we should have been on an earlier train, he didn't stress or try to hurry us up. Passport control let Phil reverse the coach back down to save her walking too far.”

Rock Choir, Paris and Disneyland

“I travelled from Tunbridge Wells to Paris last weekend with you. I was on coach 4 (Pluto bus) and our driver was Ricky. He was very professional, helpful, friendly, cheerful and kind. His driving skills were excellent and I felt extremely safe at all times. He is an asset to your company.”

Alex Britcher, Rock Choir

“I just wanted to say that he was a good safe driver, friendly, helpful, courteous and kept smiling despite dealing with all of us older women and 2 men! He must be a great asset to your company but in fact all the drivers were lovely. So friendly and good fun despite the constant changes in times and decisions.”

Sandra Payne, Rock Choir

“As a passenger in team Pluto coach last weekend, I would like to pass on my praise for our coach driver Ricky. Right from the beginning he was friendly and helpful. Always had time for a chat, played our Rock Choir CD (though he must have been fed up with it by the end!) and his driving was faultless. I was the coach leader on the coach and he made my job very easy.”

Angela Hines, Rock Choir coach leader

“From the moment he picked us up from Tunbridge Wells to the moment he dropped us off he was polite, friendly, helpful and above all a very safe and good driver. We had the best weekend with our friends and having such a great driver we could trust was brilliant. The coach was also spotlessly clean. Ricky joined in our fun and put our CDs on for us to sing along to. One of my friends is a bit agoraphobic and when we went in the tunnel he was marvellous, letting her stand at the front by the door so she didn't feel so hemmed in. A real gentleman.

I would have no hesitation in recommending your company to anyone who was needing to hire a coach.”

Virginia Challis, Rock Choir trip to Paris

“Wanted to let you know how amazing your driver, Ricky, has been. He was extremely helpful, could not do enough for us all, he was cheerful all the time. Ricky played our CD for us in the coach so we could practise our singing and fulfilled all our requests regarding air conditioning etc. throughout the trip, which also included using the toilet on the coach which was very important to a lot of us.

He is a very good driver and got us to all our destinations on time. Ricky is a real asset to your company - it really made all the difference!”

Tineke Pont de Rooy, and all my Rock Choir friends on the Pluto coach

“I am writing to say how fabulous the driver on our coach was for our Rock Choir 2018 Paris Tour. His name was Chris and he was helpful and friendly above and beyond. I would highly recommend him to others. I would also like to say how clean the coach was too, especially as we had it for 4 days.”

a contented passenger

“I have just returned from a wonderful trip to Paris with Rock Choir, where you transported over 200 of us! I was on a coach driven by Steve, who had us in stitches with his jokes all the way. He was informative and knowledgeable and just a great chap. I also managed to meet Tony who was just hilarious and a character for sure! I cannot compliment them both enough, they are a credit to your company.”

Rock Choir

“On behalf of Team Goofy, may I say what a pleasure it was to have Chris as our Cozys driver. What a credit he is to your company. Polite, helpful, courteous and a generally nice guy. Hope he enjoyed his trip as much as his Rockies did.”

Team Goofy, Rock Choir

“I just wanted to record the thanks of all my fellow Rockies to Steve our coach driver for our trip to France this weekend. He was charming, helpful and what skill shown with his driving throughout our tour - a real credit to your company. Thanks from all my fellow Rockies on the Minnie Mouse coach for making our trip such a memorable one, he really made a difference.”

Rock Choir, Minnie Mouse coach

“Just spent 4 days in Paris with the Rock Choir, with Steve as our driver. Professional, calm, friendly and funny. In fact, all the drivers were fantastic - a real credit to your company.”

Rock Choir

“Thank you very much to Steve for being our coach driver on the Minnie Mouse coach. Thanks for being an amazing tour guide and giving us history lessons too.”

Rock Choir, Minnie Mouse coach

“I’ve only just come back from a great weekend in Paris in one of your coaches with Chris and I would like to say what a really kind and helpful young man we all found him. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he treated us all with respect.”

Rock Choir

“Steve was great, the odd joke or two was funny! Liked the history lessons too. Big shout out to Steve for getting us safely to all our venues and for the on-board entertainment! He even seemed to like our singing!”

Rock Choir

“We have just spent 4 days going from Canterbury to Paris on a Rock Choir tour and our driver - Phil - was superb. He made the whole thing very enjoyable and was consistently helpful and cheerful.”

Rock Choir, Canterbury

“Just wanted to thank our driver Chris, team Goofy, for driving us around so well and looking after us.”

Team Goofy, Rock Choir

“I would like to let the company know what a wonderful coach driver Phil was for the duration of the trip. He was totally professional with a great sense of humour and a great deal of tolerance and kindness. When a member of the choir became unwell at Calais he calmly dealt with the situation before continuing on the journey.”

Clubs and groups

Clubs, societies and days out

“The Chairman and all the Members of the Orwell Friendship Club would like to thank you for arranging the coach for our outing. We would very much like to thank your excellent driver, Phil, for his kindness and thoughtfulness shown to our Members. Phil was helpful and respectful to our senior members, which has always been the same with the drivers from your company over the years.”

Joan Ellison, Secretary, Orwell Friendship Club

“I would like to express to you from our Chairman and all the Members that went on our outing to The Lazy Otter Pub for lunch how pleased we all were with Julia, our driver, and your company. You have never failed or let us down in any way. Julia was very considerate to all our members and made them feel happy, and this means a lot to senior members. Your service is outstanding.”

Orwell Friendship Club

“Thank you for arranging the coach outing to Bressingham. Our driver Stewart, as usual, was considerate and helpful to all the members that needed the extra help getting onto the coach. A very enjoyable day.”

Orwell Friendship Club

“Stewart our coach driver is one in a million and a lovely fella. Totally reliable and brilliant with our members, keeping them at ease when on the lift. He is worth his weight in gold. We love Stewart.”

group organiser

“Thank you so much for the coach to Melton Mowbray today. It arrived promptly and was very comfortable indeed. Chris was really superb and although the weather was appalling we had a really special day out. We look forward to future events.”

Joan, group organiser

“What a day! But in the end everyone thought Chris was wonderful and I thank him most sincerely on behalf of us all for keeping cool at such a frustrating time, with the M1 closed. The coach ride, although a long and arduous journey, was very comfortable. Our next hire is for Thursford - if Chris is free would he like to drive?”

group organiser

“Please let the driver of our coach from last night, who took us from Steeple Morden to Wicksteed and back, know that he did a brilliant job! His driving was relaxed and steady and he was a kind, considerate and polite young man. Thank you one and all and Merry Christmas!”

Christmas outing, Steeple Morden

“Chris was a star, what a pleasant young man he is. Some of my customers were calling him young Nigel. He wasn't too impressed with that but I could tell he was Nigel trained. A safe, patient and comfortable driver. Good with the passengers. He can drive for me any time Nigel is not available. He gets 10 out of 10 from me.”

Kay, Kays Days Out

“The driver was a credit to the company. He was extremely helpful throughout the day and nothing was too much trouble, especially to our wheelchair users. We are regular users of Cozy Travel and if we could we would request Stewart every time.”

K Stanbridge

“Stuart and Clive were excellent all week and became part of the holiday. We would like to book 2 disabled coaches for next year.”

M Faulker, Holidays for disabled

“Last weekend your company provided a coach driven by Phil to take my scout group from Finchley to Disneyland in Paris. We had a most excellent trip, and your driver was superb. He was patient, fun and entertaining and very professional, along with being a very good driver. The kids and leaders all had a good time as well.”

R Wanders, scout group, Finchley

“Nigel our coach driver was fab, he talked us through all the procedure of Ascot, he had a laugh and a joke with us and even tuned the football in for us because it was the England game. He is a credit to your company. Excellent service.”

L Paine, trip to Ascot

“Thought of transporting 9 teenage girls in a fleet of cabs did not go down well. I had seen your coaches deliver my daughter while at school in Baldock and that's why I thought of you. The girls also commented that they thought the journey was the best part... go figure.”

J Bracken

Education

Schools and colleges

“I just wanted to highlight how impressed I was with our driver, Chris. He represented your company excellently and was extremely helpful in the way he completed his work throughout the week.”

Jason, The Nobel School

“We were very happy with the service provided by Cozys on our trip yesterday. The drivers were all very cheerful and any problems were due to changes in arrangements made by the UCAS Fair organisers and traffic problems out of the control of the coach company. Your quote was extremely competitive, which is why we chose Cozys, and I will certainly contact you for any future quotes and recommend you to colleagues.”

Emma, John Henry Newman School

“Have just seen the news on the Comet home page that you have won again at the 2015 Showbus Awards. From everyone at Whitehill Junior School, well done! You certainly deserve the award.”

Steve Mills, Headteacher, Whitehill Junior School

“The driver who drove the bus for our school trip to Stoke Bruerne made a very good impression and the teachers said that he engaged well with the children and all the staff. The children also commented on what a nice driver he was. They want him to drive them to Cadbury World!”

Sue Anthony, Derwent Lower School

“We have always been impressed by all aspects of the service, from price, office (lovely ladies, always helpful and cheerful) and driver/coach. The drivers have always been polite and helpful.”

Offley Endowed Primary School

“Excellent service - thank you. We will book with you again for our Year 7 Residential Trip to Osmington Bay in 2015.”

G Martin, Chancellors School

“I think the driver's name was Andy - he couldn't have been more helpful and professional. He went the extra mile and returned some lost property to the school the following day.”
