National Express Derby Birmingham recent customer reviews
As a family of four travelling from Derby to Birmingham, we were extremely happy with the service. The bus driver was friendly and we arrived on time.
Vera O.
Despite the coach arriving 15mins late at Derby, due to traffic conditions on the way, the journey was excellent down to Birmingham. Getting out of Derby, down the motorway & into Birmingham were done quite efficiently. Smooth drive by driver & very good pickup & drop off locations. A service like this is what's needed when travelling between cities.
