Meet Your Driver

About Richard.

Born and raised in Birkenhead, I grew up as part of a family of four with my older sister.

My childhood dream was always to drive a bus, and I achieved that dream in 2017. It wasn't long before I set my sights even higher and wanted to drive coaches instead.

In 2022 I finally got behind the wheel of a coach, and that's when life changed forever. While working as the driver on an Alfa tour, I met the love of my life, Sue, who was travelling as a passenger.

Together we relocated to Cornwall in January 2025, and today I'm proud to be the man behind Kernow Travel, providing quality, affordable day trips and coach holidays for the people of Cornwall and beyond.

Real reviews from real passengers who've travelled with Richard.

"
From the moment you book, everything is straightforward and well organised. The coach is always spotlessly clean and comfortable, and Richard is an excellent driver — friendly, helpful, and professional. I always feel completely safe and at ease travelling with him, especially as a woman travelling alone. Knowledgeable too, pointing out places of interest along the way. Excellent service, comfortable travel, great value — I'll definitely be booking again. Highly recommended — 5 stars!
