Unshakeable Standards that define MILNE Group Travel & Tours

When your reputation matters, MILNE Group Travel & Tours exists so you can have peace of mind.

Every charter is handled with precision, respect and the utmost care, from your first call to your final stop. We don’t just get you there. We make the journey part of the experience.

35+ Checks Before Every Departure

We conduct over 35 inspections (not just the essential ones) before your coach even turns a wheel.

Drivers Trained, Tested and Vetted Like No One Else

Our drivers face real-world simulations, judgment checks, background screening, behavioural tests, intensely challenging interviews and technical test drives before they’re ever hired.

Real-time Vehicle Tracking with EROAD + CCTV

Our coaches are equipped with EROAD, GPS, and CCTV, delivering real-time monitoring of speed, braking, and cornering. Instant audio-visual alerts guide the driver the moment any limit is exceeded.
Every movement is tracked. Your group is protected.

No Tight Timetables and No Driver Fatigue

Routes are built with breathing space. We don’t jam drivers with back-to-backs or put speed ahead of safety. The drivers will always be relaxed to handle rough roads.
Your journey runs on precision and skills, not pressure.

Backup Vehicles and Drivers on Standby Nationwide

You'll probably never need it, but your charter has redundancy built in. For us, even the best isn’t enough. That’s why we back it up.

Experts On-Call the Moment You Need Help

We don’t do call centres. You speak to real group transport experts who know your trip, your driver, and the plan inside out. No call transfers to the “right representative”, and no waiting.
Questions are accurately answered. Problems are solved in no time.

We Don’t Just Arrive On Time, We Arrive Early

“Traffic” isn’t an excuse in our world. Our drivers show up early, calm, ready, and will wait for you, no rush, just smooth and stress-free service. Not a single excuse in discipline, no matter where you are. Punctuality in every single ride is part of our luxury experience.

Comfort Isn’t a Bonus, It’s the Baseline

No noisy, freezing buses or broken seats. Just clean, properly working vehicles with air-con that suits Australian summers and winters. We inspect vehicles before EVERY trip, no exceptions. No matter the weather, your comfort is always weatherproofed.

Australia-Wide Capacity, Delivered Flawlessly

Need one coach or a national rollout of 40? We’ve moved thousands of people across the country, and still delivered every single group, every day, without fail.
MILNE moves people at scale, with five-star safety and the highest standards.
