Self-drive 9-seater minibus rental in Fort William?

Emma Thompson3 weeks ago873 viewsScottish Highlands

I need to arrange minibus transport for a family group of 9 people in Fort William. We'll be staying for a week and want to explore the surrounding hiking trails. Is it better to hire a self-drive minibus or use a minibus with a driver for day trips? Any recommendations for reliable companies in the area?

I'd recommend checking out Lake District Hire. They have a location near the train station and their prices are competitive. I hired a Kia Sportage from them last summer and it was perfect for the narrow roads around the area.

If you're looking for something budget-friendly, try Highland Motors. They're a local firm with good rates. The cars aren't the newest but they're reliable and perfect for exploring the area.

I've found Budget to be the most reliable in the area. They're not always the cheapest, but their vehicles are newer and they don't hit you with unexpected charges at the end. Worth paying a bit extra for peace of mind.
