Count the travellers, not the hotel rooms
For example, six pairs of guests make twelve passengers, whether they share rooms or book separately. If another organiser joins them, request thirteen passenger places, with the provided driver separate.
Use a passenger list for each movement. Twelve people may arrive together while only eight join the next day’s activity. The final departure could still need places for all twelve.
Map the luggage across the stay
A simple worked example shows why the lightest journey is not the whole brief:
- Arrival: twelve passengers, six shared overnight cases, twelve day bags and two equipment cases.
- Local outing: eight participants, eight day bags and the two equipment cases.
- Journey home: all twelve passengers and the complete arrival load again.
These are requirements to assess, not a vehicle allowance. Confirm where the remaining bags will be kept during the outing; do not assume hotel storage or space in a parked vehicle.
Show which movements you actually need
List the hotel arrival, activity transfers, evening collections and departure separately. Give the required arrival time and passenger total for each. Explain any period when you would like a vehicle to remain available between stops.
For an airport arrival, add flights and terminal details. A team offsite can connect these movements to its wider corporate travel plan.

Compare comfort against the fullest load
Consider presentation and passenger space alongside the overnight bags and activity kit. Our standard and executive minibus guide explains the wider comparison.
If the proposed layout needs more storage or the party might grow, review the 16-passenger planning guide. Keep the actual twelve-person load visible when comparing options.
Questions about planning a trip for twelve
Are twelve passengers counted separately from the driver?
Yes. Give the number of guests, team members and accompanying organisers who need transport. The provided driver is additional to that passenger total, not one of the twelve places you are requesting.
How should we list cases shared by pairs of guests?
Give the actual case count, not an assumed bag for every person. Six shared suitcases plus twelve day bags is a different load from twelve large suitcases. Add group equipment separately.
Can only eight of our twelve guests join a local outing?
Include the eight-person outing as its own movement, with the bags and kit needed then. Keep the twelve-person hotel arrival and final departure in the same itinerary so no larger leg is missed.
Should our request cover every transfer during the weekend?
Yes. List each movement you want quoted, including evening returns. Identify fixed timings and periods when you would like transport available, rather than describing only the first arrival and final departure.
Does the request have to use a vehicle with exactly twelve seats?
No. Twelve passengers are the requirement, not a limit on the size of the proposed vehicle. Compare the offered seating and storage together, especially for the arrival and departure with all luggage aboard.
