Grey's of Ely is situated just out side the Cathedral City of Ely and was founded in 1946 by Charles Grey who, at that time, provided not only coach travel, but also the local taxi, wedding, hearse, and ambulance service. From its small beginnings the, now third generation family business, grew from one small 29-seat petrol engined coach to its now 30 strong fleet.
The business moved, in the early 1990's, to a purpose built premises at Witchford, on the out-skirts of Ely and now operates with a staff base of over twenty-five. Grey's of Ely operates a continual fleet regeneration programme, which ensures that they have an average vehicle age of just two and a half years old.

Ordered a 33 seater coach to take a group of us in Cambridge to and from a company party just outside the city. Booking process was smooth and responsive by both email and phone, and was able to tweak details like exact numbers and additional drop-off points up until the day before. I was also able to book on relatively short notice (<2 weeks).
We ended up with a larger coach than booked just due to logistics, but there was no additional charge for this and the company was also happy to let us take few extra stragglers on the way back due to the spare seats. Drivers were very friendly and happy

Thank you to the amazing team at Greys of Ely who provided transport between venues for our wedding guests in January this year! They were brilliant with communication in the lead up to the event and on the day they were fantastic and we could not fault their service. Thank you Greys of Ely for being a massive and vital part of our special day! Our guests loved their two journeys on the 'fun bus' and you have helped everyone make memories that will last forever. Thank you!

A lovely bunch of professionals. The coaches are the next level. Such a variety of sizes to choose from, for any event or any distance. Most helpful staff, who are always happy to help with anything. Highly recommend them. If you need a clean and cool looking coach for your event, this is the place to go for.

I am very disappointed with greys of Ely. Soham village college have hired this bus company for some of their students this year and I must say, the service is appalling! Often the bus is late. On many occasions, the driver doesn't know where to go!?? The children are actually having to tell the driver where to stop and where to go next. Once, a… parent even had to drive in front to show the driver where to go!! Last week the college closed early. The children of so05 waited and waited but no bus came for them. Eventually a teacher took them all inside. In the end, I had to drive to soham

I hire a coach with Grey;s Ely for my group travelling from Cambridge to Harry Potter Experience.
The coach was clean and confortable for the trip.
Our driver was top class, very professional, cooperative and polite, answering all the possible questions and always in contact with us. He was very helpful with the couple that was travelling with two babies. He kindly agree to make an extra drop off for convenience for my group.
Competitive price.
Definitely, I will use this company again.

Everything immaculate! Coaches supplied are of superb quality, the drivers not only as smart as the coaches but go above and beyond their duties offering much more than others we’ve dealt with in the past. Great service from start to finish, we knew where our coach was, had direct communication with the driver, all of which and the rest make them a pleasure to deal with! I wouldn’t want to use anyone else!

Our village history society had a weeks trip with Andrew Spooner ( Skylark Travel ) to the WW1 Battlefields, using Grey of Ely for transport. The driver , Kevin , did more than could be expected of a driver. Nothing was too much trouble, the roads he undertook in such a vehicle would have been impressive in a car. A very enjoyable week
