A LITTLE HISTORY
A coach (also motor coach, often simply referred to as a bus) is a type of vehicle used for conveying passengers on excursions and on longer-distance intercity bus service between cities—or even between countries. Unlike transit busesdesigned for shorter journeys, coaches often have a luggage hold that is separate from the passenger cabin and are normally equipped with facilities required for longer trips, including comfortable seats and sometimes a toilet.
The term “coach” was previously used for a horse-drawn carriage designed for the conveyance of more than one passenger, the passengers’ luggage, and mail, that is covered for protection from the elements. The term was applied to railway carriagesin the 19th century, and later to motor coaches.
Horse-drawn chariots and carriages (“coaches”) were used by the wealthy and powerful where the roads were of a high enough standard from possibly 3000 BC. In Hungary, during the reign of King Matthias Corvinus in the 15th century, the wheelwrights of Kocs began to build a horse-drawn vehicle with steel-spring suspension. This “cart of Kocs” as the Hungarians called it (Hungarian: kocsi szekér) soon became popular all over Europe. The imperial post service employed the first horse-drawn mail coaches in Europe since Roman times in 1650, and as they started in the town of Kocs, the use of these mail coaches gave rise to the term “coach”. Stagecoaches (drawn by horses) were used for transport between cities from about 1500 in Great Britain until displaced by the arrival of the railways.
One of the earliest motorised vehicles was the charabanc, which was used for short journeys and excursions until the early years of the 20th century. The first “motor coaches” were purchased by operators of those horse-drawn vehicles in the early 20th century by operators such as Royal Blue Coach Services, who purchased their first charabanc in 1913 and were running 72 coaches by 1926.

Booked them for a trip to Napa for my birthday. Edwin was my driver and he was amazing. Great price and great service!
Great company to work with. It was very easy to book the party bus with Dave. Straight forward, very clear communication. The driver came on time, spotless clean bus, very well maintained, comfortable and good looking interior with great sound system. Professional driver, smooth driving all around San Francisco which is not easy to do.
I will definitely come back and would recommend Urban Limos to all my friends.
Thank you!
I am a senior corporate travel consultant for a large travel agency that has just started working with UrbanBCN Worldwide this year. We are always extremely leery of trying different car service companies, but I am so glad that we tried Urban this year, as they have exceeded my expectations. The service that has been provided is far superior to our previous car service provider at all of our local and international destinations. I can't recommend them enough. Thank you Dave for making my job easier!
