    Asked on May 22nd, 2024

    How much leg room in the coach. I have long legs and need room for them.

    Transport
    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten May 2024

      The coach is set up with 2 seats on one side and 1 on the other and we have a back row with the middle seat offering full legroom down the aisle - we do not have assigned seats however we recommend getting to the bus early and that middle seat would be perfect for the most leg room.
