Choosing 7-seaters, 16-seat minibuses and cross-border coaches
All cross-border vehicles have valid registrations for both jurisdictions and undergo regular maintenance. Choose according to passengers and luggage:

A common cross-border option for business travellers, small families and colleagues. Spacious interiors offer leather seats, individual air-conditioning and USB charging, suited to luggage on airport or Mainland hotel trips. See Fleet photographs for 7-seater and Alphard exteriors and interiors.
16-seat cross-border minibuses: value for medium-sized groups
Suitable for a dozen or so colleagues, relatives or friends. The medium-sized vehicle includes luggage space and keeps the whole group together, making coordination easier than separate public-transport journeys.
