The Wright Experience

Dependable, friendly and trusted travel operator - wherever we take you and wherever you want to go!

From schoolchildren to rock stars and everyone in between. In Wright's 100 year plus history our drivers have transported countless passengers from all walks of life to all kinds of destinations.

A lifeline to many, we offer regular buses between Nenthead and Hexham and during the summer months we operate the popular route of Newcastle to Keswick with lots of stops along the way. We also transport many children to school and are trusted, long-standing contractors with several local authorities and education departments.

What may come as a surprise is that Wrights has for many years operated a sleeper coach service for the music industry. Co-owner Gary Wright has driven stars such as Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, Pink Floyd, Deacon Blue, Bon Jovi and many others on tours around Europe and parts of Asia

Thank you for a fantastic service as usual. Everyone was well taken care of. And your lovely, friendly coach driver.

Robin Hood Primary School

Thank you for the efficient service on our trip to Normandy. The driver was excellent, negotiating the tricky roads as well as supporting some of our older veterans in and out of the coach.

Our Choir had a successful trip to Holland. It made a huge difference having a friendly driver and the use of the coach as a base.
