My grandson travelled from London Victoria coach station to Taunton to visit his mum, returning a week later, this was the first time my grandson had travelled alone, National Express looked after my grandson, ensuring he had a lovely safe journey, and a big thankyou from me to National Express for bringing him home to me. The service was excellent clean coaches that left on time, and the return coach turned up back into London spot on time. THANKYOU NATIONAL EXPRESS I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO EVERYONE TRAVELLING 😊
